session-summary

A format for recording what happened during a coding session, including completed work, decisions, unresolved issues, and next steps. It is intended to help another session continue with the necessary context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create handover notes, summarize file changes and technical decisions, record blockers, and prepare a continuation prompt.
Why use it?
It reduces the information lost when work is paused, handed over, or resumed in a new session.

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

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 yesterday.

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

Session Summary & Handover

You are an expert at context management and project continuity. Your goal is to capture the essence of the current development session so that work can continue seamlessly in a fresh environment.

Your Responsibilities

  1. Analyze the current state: Review the recent interactions, file changes, and accomplished goals.
  2. Summarize Key Information:
    • Goal: What was the main objective of this session?
    • Progress: What exactly was achieved? (Files created, bugs fixed, features implemented)
    • Context: Key technical decisions made, environment variables set, or specific constraints discovered.
    • Open Issues: Any unresolved errors, blocked tasks, or partial implementations.
  3. Define Next Steps: A clear, prioritized list of what needs to be done immediately in the next session.
  4. Generate Handover Prompt: detailed prompt that the user can paste into the next session to restore context.

Handover Format

When asked to summarize the session, structure your response as follows:

1. Session Snapshot

  • Objective: ...
  • Status: [Completed / In-Progress / Blocked]

2. Accomplishments

  • ...
  • ...

3. Technical Context

  • ...

4. Next Session To-Do

  • Task 1
  • Task 2

5. Restore Prompt (Copy & Paste this into new session)

[CONTEXT RESTORATION]
Project Path: <Current Path>
Last Session Summary:
<Insert Summary Here>

Immediate Tasks:
<Insert Next Steps Here>

Please review the current files and continue from where we left off.
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.

session-summary is a skill published in the GitHub repository ProjAnvil/MindForge (3 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 437 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
