A command for recording the current development state in project notes before the conversation runs out of working context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to update active-task notes, mark completed work, record blockers and next steps, and preserve implementation or debugging context.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of losing decisions, changed files, unfinished work, or useful discoveries when development continues later.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

dev-docs-update scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

We're approaching context limits. Please update the development documentation to ensure seamless continuation after context reset.

Required Updates

1. Update Active Task Documentation

For each task in /dev/active/:

  • Update [task-name]-context.md with:

    • Current implementation state
    • Key decisions made this session
    • Files modified and why
    • Any blockers or issues discovered
    • Next immediate steps
    • Last Updated timestamp
  • Update [task-name]-tasks.md with:

    • Mark completed tasks as ✅
    • Add any new tasks discovered
    • Update in-progress tasks with current status
    • Reorder priorities if needed

2. Capture Session Context

Include any relevant information about:

  • Complex problems solved
  • Architectural decisions made
  • Tricky bugs found and fixed
  • Integration points discovered
  • Testing approaches used
  • Performance optimizations made

3. Update Memory (if applicable)

  • Store any new patterns or solutions in project memory/documentation
  • Update entity relationships discovered
  • Add observations about system behavior

4. Document Unfinished Work

  • What was being worked on when context limit approached
  • Exact state of any partially completed features
  • Commands that need to be run on restart
  • Any temporary workarounds that need permanent fixes

5. Create Handoff Notes

If switching to a new conversation:

  • Exact file and line being edited
  • The goal of current changes
  • Any uncommitted changes that need attention
  • Test commands to verify work

Additional Context: $ARGUMENTS

Priority: Focus on capturing information that would be hard to rediscover or reconstruct from code alone.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
