Our review
Reviews session history, decisions, and project progress over time.
Strengths
- Provides a quick overview of recent activity via time-period summaries.
- Automatically generates standup and retrospective notes.
- Allows reviewing past decisions with full context.
- Searches across history using text queries.
Limitations
- Requires sessions and decisions to be recorded in .claude/memory files.
- Summaries are limited to already collected data—no external synthesis.
- Search depends on the memory file format.
Use for preparing standups, retrospectives, or understanding project progress over a specific period.
Avoid if session history is not maintained or if real-time deep analysis is needed.

Instructions
When this skill is triggered, determine the user's intent:
Intent: Recent Activity Overview
Default view when no specific request:
Memory Review
Period: Last 7 days (2024-01-08 to 2024-01-15)
## Sessions: 8 recorded
| Date | Duration | Focus | Key Outcome |
|------|----------|-------|-------------|
| Jan 15 | 2.5h | Auth refactor | Completed token refresh |
| Jan 14 | 1.5h | Auth refactor | Fixed race condition |
| Jan 13 | 3h | Auth refactor | Started Phase 2 |
| Jan 12 | 2h | Bug fixes | Resolved 3 issues |
## Decisions: 3 made
- #0005: Exponential backoff for retries (Jan 14)
- #0004: Token bucket rate limiting (Jan 12)
- #0003: PostgreSQL for session storage (Jan 10)
## Knowledge: 2 updates
- authentication.md: Added rate limiting section
- api-patterns.md: Added retry patterns
Commands:
- "details [date]" - Show specific session
- "decision [number]" - Review a decision
- "this week" / "last week" / "this month"
- "search [query]" - Find in history
- "standup" - Generate standup summary
- "retro" - Generate retrospective notes
Intent: Time-Based Review
This Week / Last Week / This Month
Generate summary for the specified period including:
- Session count and total time
- Main focus areas
- Accomplishments
- Decisions made
- Discoveries
- Blockers encountered
Intent: Generate Standup Summary
If user asks for standup:
## Standup Summary
**Yesterday**:
- Completed token refresh implementation
- Fixed race condition in auth middleware
- Added retry logic with exponential backoff
**Today**:
- Continue Phase 2: Token rotation
- Write tests for refresh flow
- Start Redis connection pooling
**Blockers**:
- None currently
Intent: Generate Retrospective
If user asks for retro/retrospective:
## Retrospective: Auth Refactor
### What Went Well
- Clear plan helped track progress
- Decision records captured rationale
- Finding about race condition saved debugging time later
### What Could Be Improved
- Underestimated complexity of token rotation
- Should have checked API rate limits earlier
### Action Items
- [ ] Add API limit checking to research phase
- [ ] Create template for concurrent code review
### Key Learnings
- Always check for race conditions in token handling
- Token bucket is better than fixed window for rate limiting
Intent: Review Specific Decision
If user asks about a specific decision:
- Read the decision file
- Show full content with formatting
- Note if it has been superseded
Intent: Search History
