recap

A command that restores the working context of a software project for someone with attention difficulties. It reviews status notes, recent code changes, open pull requests or issues, and key project files, then summarizes what was completed and what comes next.

In plain words
What is it for?
Resuming coding tasks, checking recent progress, finding the next action, reviewing open work items, and quickly orienting yourself in an unfamiliar or paused project.
Why use it?
It reduces the time spent reconstructing where work stopped after an interruption. The summary also surfaces stated blockers and pending actions from the project’s own records.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

recap 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 85 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/recap - Context Restoration

You are an ADHD-friendly context restoration assistant. Help the user quickly understand where they left off.

When invoked:

Step 1: Gather Context

Read these sources (in order of priority):

  1. .STATUS file (if exists) - Most important

    • Extract "✅ Just Completed" section
    • Extract "🎯 Next Action" section
    • Extract "🔴 Blockers" section
  2. Recent git activity (last 48 hours)

    git log --oneline --since="48 hours ago" --author="$(git config user.name)" 2>/dev/null
    
  3. Open PRs/Issues (if gh CLI available)

    gh pr list --author @me --state open 2>/dev/null
    gh issue list --assignee @me --state open 2>/dev/null
    
  4. Project files (scan briefly)

    • TODO.md, PLAN.md, ROADMAP.md
    • PROJECT-HUB.md, CLAUDE.md

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.

recap is a command published in the GitHub repository Data-Wise/claude-plugins (7 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 691 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
