recap

recap is a skill for Claude Code from AcKeskin/contexture. It costs 90 tokens per session (3,660 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured record of a coding session covering what was investigated, learned, finished, and left for later.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write session notes, record unfinished work, and identify learned information that may be saved as longer-term memory.
Why use it?
It preserves useful context after a session ends, so the next session does not have to reconstruct decisions from memory.

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 4d 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 — 163 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

recap

Session recaps are the second memory tier — episodic, per-session, structured. Rules (existing tier) answer how should I work; recaps answer what happened and where did I leave off. Format follows claude-md/memory-capture.md §"Folder layout" — type: session-recap, lands under memory/sessions/.

When to run

  • User types /recap [title] (explicit trigger; title is optional).
  • User says "wrap up", "write session notes", "recap this session", "document what we did".
  • Claude proposes a recap when the user signals session closure — e.g. "done for today", "that's it for now", a PR merge, a deliberate pause after a non-trivial chunk of work. Propose, don't write. User confirms before anything lands.
  • Never fires automatically on time, event, or tool-use boundary. Mode B stays parked.
  • The clear-context-decision-guard hook may surface a recovery nudge at the start of a new session if the previous one was cleared/compacted while decisions sat unrecapped. That nudge routes here — propose a recap reconstructing the prior session's decisions from its on-disk transcript. A recap that writes a sessions/*.md file is the guard's "persisted" watermark; once it runs, the guard goes quiet.

Inputs

  1. Session context. The current in-conversation transcript — what the user asked for, what Claude investigated / touched / shipped, what was learned that's worth future recall.
  2. Arguments after /recap — optional short title for the recap. When omitted, Claude infers from the session's primary goal.
  3. Working directory$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR or cwd. Determines which project's memory tree receives the recap.
  4. The --under-wrap signal (set only when wrap invokes recap as part of the session-terminus ceremony). When present, recap suppresses its own §7.4 close/changelog doorways/wrap owns those offers (its steps 4–5), so recap offering them too would double-offer. Everything else (gather, draft, write, §8 promotion, §9 bloat check) runs unchanged. Absent the signal (a standalone /recap), §7.4 fires as normal.

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 skill published in the GitHub repository AcKeskin/contexture (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 90 tokens to every session and 3,660 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-09-03.
