name: wise-report
description: >-
Produce a verified status report of the current session - what is
done, what is not, the plan, next steps, open questions, leftovers,
and postponed tasks - in compact ref-coded form (F facts, A actions,
Q questions, R risks, L leftovers, P postponed), with every claim
backed by checkable evidence (git SHA, PR number, file path, test
output) or explicitly marked unverified. Pass `--full` for expanded
detail, `--save` to also write the report to a handoff file that
survives compaction and session end. Invoked as `/wise-report` (bare
alias) or `/wise:wise-report` (canonical). Use when the user says
"session status", "status report", "where are we", "what's done",
"what's left", "summarize the session", "session summary", "what's
next", "handoff report", or types `/wise-report`.

# /wise-report - verified session status report
## Why this skill exists
Long sessions accumulate finished work, half-finished work, promises,
and open questions - and a summary written from memory alone drifts.
This skill runs the plugin's shared report pass over the current
session so the user gets a compact, ref-coded report where every line
is either evidence-tagged or explicitly `(unverified)`, and can reply
about any single item ("do A2 first", "drop L1") without quoting it
back.
The skill is a thin wrapper: parse the two flags, then read the shared
`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/report-pass.md` and follow it. The
reference is the source of truth for the recall → verify → aggregate →
emit discipline, the report template, the handoff-store location, and
the final-line format - workflow steps and future `-auto` building
blocks read the same file, so a change to the routine lands everywhere
at once.
## Invocation
```
/wise-report
/wise-report --full
/wise-report --save
/wise-report --full --save
/wise:wise-report [--full] [--save] # canonical namespaced form
```
## Arguments
Parse `$ARGUMENTS` yourself. Only two flags exist, in any order:
| Token | Meaning |
|-----------|----------------------------------------------------------------|
| _(empty)_ | Brief report, printed to the conversation only. |
| `--full` | Expanded detail (`MODE=full` - rendering defined in the pass). |
| `--save` | Also write the report to the handoff store and print `Saved: <path>`. |
If `$ARGUMENTS` contains anything other than whitespace, `--full`,
and `--save`, stop with:
```
Unknown argument(s): <the extra tokens>
Usage: /wise-report [--full] [--save]
```
followed by `REPORT: failed reason="unknown arguments"` as the final
line, so a programmatic caller always gets a parseable terminator.
Do not interpret unknown tokens as a topic filter or anything else.
## Procedure
### 1. Read the shared pass
Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/report-pass.md`. If the read
fails (missing file, unset `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT`), stop with
`REPORT: failed reason="report-pass.md unreachable"` - do not
improvise the routine from memory; the guardrails live in that file.
### 2. Run it for the current session
Set the pass inputs from the parsed flags and follow the reference
end to end:
- `SCOPE` = `current session`
- `MODE` = `full` if `--full` was passed, else `brief`
- `SAVE` = `yes` if `--save` was passed, else `no`
The reference owns everything else - the recall pass, the
verification probes, evidence labelling, the report template, the
handoff-store path, and the final `REPORT:` line.
### 3. Relay
The report itself is the output - print it in full, then the
reference's final line, which MUST be one of its documented shapes:
```
REPORT: ok scope="current session" mode=<brief|full> saved="<path>"
REPORT: ok scope="current session" mode=<brief|full> saved=-
REPORT: failed reason="<one line>"
```
When `--save` was passed, the saved path (also printed as
`Saved: <path>`) is the handoff file a later session's pass reads
back.
## Guardrails
All of `report-pass.md`'s guardrails apply - read-only except the
`--save` file, no fabrication (evidence beats memory), degrade
quietly on missing sources, no other skills, no subagents, no
padding. This skill adds nothing on top; if a rule needs changing,
change it in the reference so every caller inherits it.
