if [ ! -f ".claude/sync-config.json" ]; then
    echo "Session sync not configured. Run /sync-enable first."
    exit 0
fi

SYNC_REPO=$(python3 -c "import json; print(json.load(open('.claude/sync-config.json')).get('repo', ''))" 2>/dev/null)

if [ -z "$SYNC_REPO" ]; then
    echo "No sync repo configured"

echo ""
echo "📄 Loading session: $SESSION_PATH"
echo "━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━"
echo ""

SUMMARY=$(gh api "repos/$SYNC_REPO/contents/sessions/$SESSION_PATH/summary.md" -q '.content' 2>/dev/null | base64 -d)

if [ -z "$SUMMARY" ]; then
    echo "❌ Session not found: $SESSION_PATH"
    echo ""
    echo "Run /sessions to see available sessions"
    exit 1
fi

echo "$SUMMARY"
