fire-session-summary

A command that creates a compact summary of a coding session, including progress, remaining work, blockers, decisions, and next steps. It can save the summary as a searchable memory record.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the end of a session or after a milestone to record what happened. It can detect the project, inspect recent repository activity, and optionally display the summary without saving it.
Why use it?
It makes it easier to resume work later without rereading the entire session. It also separates completed work from unfinished tasks and unresolved problems.

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

fire-session-summary 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 253 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/fire-session-summary

Compact forward-looking session summary — fills the gap between full WARRIOR handoffs and the memory system


Purpose

Generate a lightweight session summary capturing what the memory system doesn't: aggregate status, readiness assessment, forward planning, and concrete next steps. Saved as a searchable memory point (source type: session_summary), indexed automatically by the session-end consolidation hook.

Not a replacement for /fire-5-handoff. Use handoffs for milestones. Use this for every session — it's fast, compact, and auto-indexed.


Arguments

arguments: none

optional_flags:
  --project: "Override project name detection"
  --no-save: "Display summary without saving to file"

Process

Step 1: Gather Context (30 seconds)

Quickly scan what happened this session. Do NOT re-read entire files — use what you already know from conversation context.

Collect from conversation context:
  - What tasks/features were worked on
  - What was completed vs left partial
  - What blockers were hit
  - What decisions were made
  - What files were created/modified

IF in a git repo:
  git log --oneline --since="4 hours ago" 2>/dev/null | head -10

IF .planning/CONSCIENCE.md exists:
  Read current phase and status (first 20 lines only)

Step 2: Detect Project Name

Priority order:
  1. --project flag if provided
  2. .planning/VISION.md project name
  3. Git repo name (basename of git root)
  4. Current directory name
  5. "general" (fallback for System32/multi-project sessions)

Step 3: Generate Summary

Write the summary using EXACTLY this template. Keep each section to 2-4 lines max.

---
session: {YYYY-MM-DD}
project: {detected project name}
type: session_summary
---

# Session Summary: {YYYY-MM-DD}

## Status
| Item | State | Detail |
|------|-------|--------|
| {work item 1} | DONE / PARTIAL / BLOCKED | {one-line detail} |
| {work item 2} | DONE / PARTIAL / BLOCKED | {one-line detail} |

## Readiness
- **Ready:** {what next session can immediately start on}
- **Blocked:** {external blockers, or "None"}
- **Needs first:** {prerequisites before main work, or "Nothing"}

## Outlook
- **Trajectory:** {on-track / behind / ahead / exploratory}
- **Risk:** {key risk, or "Low"}
- **Momentum:** {what's going well — one line}

## Next Steps
1. **{Priority 1}** — {specific actionable description}
2. **{Priority 2}** — {specific actionable description}
3. **{Priority 3}** — {specific actionable description}

## Decisions Made
- {Decision — rationale in 10 words or less}

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.

fire-session-summary is a command published in the GitHub repository ThierryN/fire-flow (77 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 1,802 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-30.
