What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the problem of losing access to historical conversation context when chats are no longer in active memory, eliminating the need to manually scroll through extensive chat history or guess at prior discussion details.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-Session Search: Search across all stored session logs for specific keywords, phrases, or topics to find relevant prior discussions in seconds.
  • Session Metrics Analysis: Extract full message threads, calculate total conversation costs, or break down tool usage for any individual session to review past work or billing details.
  • Use Case: For example, if a user asks what was decided about the Q4 marketing plan in last month's chats, you can use this skill to pull all relevant messages from the corresponding session logs without manual file browsing.
