SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Capture and persist the outcomes of a completed coding session into the repository's journal and index so future developers and AI agents can quickly resume context and review what changed.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Appends session summaries, updated file lists, and commit hashes to .trellis journal files to preserve session knowledge.
  • Archives completed tasks and updates developer index files with session counts, last active timestamps, and line statistics.
  • Use after human testing and committing to ensure accurate archival without interfering with normal git workflows; scripts auto-commit .trellis metadata.

Quick Start

Record the completed coding session by running the trellis add_session script with a title, commit hashes, and a brief summary so the workspace journal and index are updated.

FAQPage Schema
How do I persist coding session summaries and commit metadata to a repository journal?

To persist coding session summaries, you run the trellis add_session script with a session title, commit hashes, and a brief summary to append records and auto-commit workspace metadata to .trellis journal files.

What is the best way to archive completed development tasks and update developer indexes after committing?

Archiving completed tasks and updating developer indexes is handled by trellis scripts that record session counts, last active timestamps, and line statistics, then auto-commit the updated .trellis metadata directly to your repository.

When should I record a development session in git using trellis?

You should record a development session using trellis after human testing and committing code changes, ensuring accurate archival of session outcomes without interfering with normal git workflows.

Do I need specific Python scripts to append session metadata to the workspace journal?

Yes, appending session metadata requires the .trellis Python scripts, specifically add_session.py, get_context.py, and task.py, to update journal files and archive completed tasks automatically.

Can I capture commit hashes for future AI sessions without disrupting my normal git workflow?

Yes, you can capture commit hashes for future AI sessions by running the add_session script after your normal git commits, which appends the metadata and auto-commits .trellis files without disrupting existing workflows.

Why does recording a coding session require access to repository git history?

Recording a coding session requires access to repository git history to accurately retrieve commit hashes and capture file changes, ensuring the journal archives precise metadata for future developers and AI agents to resume context.
