session-summary skillA

session-summary is agent-read markdown (skill) from swingerman/engineer: Use at the end of a work session on a DAE feature, so the next session picks up cleanly. Triggers — "/engineer.session-summary", "wrap up the session", "write the session log", "I'm stopping for the day"..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# session-summary

Write the per-session entry in a feature's `session-log.md` so the human can close the laptop and pick back up cleanly. The human-readable counterpart to the machine handoffs. `checkpoint: null`.

## When to use

At the end of a work session on a feature. Three boundaries reach it without the human remembering to:

- **The feature merged** — `post-merge` Step 6 auto-invokes it at autonomy `medium`/`high`.
- **The context is about to compact** — an optional `PreCompact` hook; see `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/examples/pre-compact-session-summary.md`. This is the boundary where the pickup record matters most, because everything else about the session is about to be summarized away.
- **The human stops** — an optional `Stop` hook.

Both hooks are project config, not part of this skill.

It is deliberately **not** invoked at every checkpoint exit: this is a per-session record, and several entries a day makes `session-log.md` useless for the one job it has — being readable when you come back cold.

**Not for:** mid-session (nothing's wrapping up); syncing the tracker (`progress-log`); per-skill records (each skill's own handoff).

How to install

Latest version
mdr add swingerman/engineer/session-summary@git:20260729.715119e
Exact content
mdr add swingerman/engineer/session-summary@sha256:c871651f026f4b5d

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
