save-session

save-session is a command for Claude Code from Fmarzochi/EGC. It costs 28 tokens per session (2,160 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of save-session, Apache-2.0.

A command that records the current coding session in a dated file so it can be continued later.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before closing a session, starting a fresh one, or handing work to another session or person.
Why use it?
It prevents important decisions, changes, errors, and unfinished work from being lost when a session ends or runs out of context.

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

save-session 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 3d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

80% identical to save-session — 93 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Save Session Command

Capture everything that happened in this session: what was built, what worked, what failed, what's left: and write it to a dated file so the next session can pick up exactly where this one left off.

When to Use

  • End of a work session before closing Gemini Code
  • Before hitting context limits (run this first, then start a fresh session)
  • After solving a complex problem you want to remember
  • Any time you need to hand off context to a future session

Process

Step 1: Gather context

Before writing the file, collect:

  • Read all files modified during this session (use git diff or recall from conversation)
  • Review what was discussed, attempted, and decided
  • Note any errors encountered and how they were resolved (or not)
  • Check current test/build status if relevant

Step 2: Create the sessions folder if it doesn't exist

Create the canonical sessions folder in the user's Gemini home directory:

mkdir -p ~/.gemini/session-data

Step 3: Write the session file

Create ~/.gemini/session-data/YYYY-MM-DD-<short-id>-session.tmp, using today's actual date and a short-id that satisfies the rules enforced by SESSION_FILENAME_REGEX in session-manager.js:

  • Compatibility characters: letters a-z / A-Z, digits 0-9, hyphens -, underscores _
  • Compatibility minimum length: 1 character
  • Recommended style for new files: lowercase letters, digits, and hyphens with 8+ characters to avoid collisions

Valid examples: abc123de, a1b2c3d4, frontend-worktree-1, ChezMoi_2 Avoid for new files: A, test_id1, ABC123de

Full valid filename example: 2024-01-15-abc123de-session.tmp

The legacy filename YYYY-MM-DD-session.tmp is still valid, but new session files should prefer the short-id form to avoid same-day collisions.

Step 4: Populate the file with all sections below

Write every section honestly. Do not skip sections: write "Nothing yet" or "N/A" if a section genuinely has no content. An incomplete file is worse than an honest empty section.

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.
