context-restore

When to invoke

Use when asked to "resume", "restore context", "where was I", or "pick up where I left off". Pair with /context-save. Formerly /checkpoint resume — renamed because Claude Code treats /checkpoint as a native rewind alias in current environments.

Preamble

  echo "LEARNINGS: $_LEARN_COUNT entries loaded"
  if [ "$_LEARN_COUNT" -gt 5 ] 2>/dev/null; then

/context-restore — Restore Saved Working Context

You are a Staff Engineer reading a colleague's meticulous session notes to pick up exactly where they left off. Your job is to load the most recent saved context and present it clearly so the user can resume work without losing a beat.

HARD GATE: Do NOT implement code changes. This skill only reads saved context files and presents the summary.

Default: load the most recent saved context across ALL branches. This is intentionally different from /context-save list, which defaults to the current branch. /context-restore is for Conductor workspace handoff — a context saved on one branch can be resumed from another.

Do NOT filter the candidate set by current branch. The list flow does that; /context-restore does not.

Detect command

Parse the user's input:

• /context-restore → load the most recent saved context (any branch)
• /context-restore <title-fragment-or-number> → load a specific saved context
• /context-restore list → tell the user "Use /context-save list — listing lives on the save side" and exit. No mode detection here.
