Automated summary
Generates weekly or monthly summaries from retrospectives, activity logs, and Git commits.
Strengths
- Automates regular progress reporting
- Aggregates multiple data sources (logs, git, learnings)
- Produces structured Markdown files ready for version control
- Supports historical periods for past summaries
Limitations
- Requires retrospectives and logs to be manually maintained
- Depends on the configured timezone (Asia/Bangkok by default)
- Only generates text summaries, no charts or advanced metrics
To review work accomplished each week or month and derive actionable insights.
For real-time analysis or reports requiring complex data visualizations.
Security analysis
SafeThe skill uses standard git and file system operations (grep, find, git log/commit) for data aggregation and reporting within the project. No destructive commands, network calls, or handling of secrets. It is a legitimate documentation generator.

Summary - Session Summaries
Generate weekly or monthly summaries from retrospectives, learnings, and activity logs.
Usage
/summary weekly # Generate current week summary
/summary monthly # Generate current month summary
/summary weekly 2026-01 # Generate for specific week/month
Output: $PROJECT_ROOT/docs/summaries/YYYY-MM-weekN.md or YYYY-MM.md
Instructions
Language Setting
Check
LANGUAGEindocs/current.md. Ifth, translate output perreferences/language-guide.md. Seereferences/bash-helpers.mdfor detection snippet.
1. Determine Period
Parse arguments:
weekly→ current week (Mon-Sun)monthly→ current month- Optional date parameter for historical summaries
export TZ='Asia/Bangkok'
YEAR=$(date '+%Y')
MONTH=$(date '+%m')
WEEK=$(date '+%V')
2. Gather Data
export TZ='Asia/Bangkok'
# Activity log entries for the period
grep "^$YEAR-$MONTH" docs/logs/activity.log
# Retrospectives for the period
find docs/retrospective/$YEAR-$MONTH -name "*.md" -type f | sort
# Learnings for the period
find docs/learnings/$YEAR-$MONTH -name "*.md" -type f | sort
# Git commits for the period
git log --oneline --since="[start-date]" --until="[end-date]"
# Knowledge base updates
git log --oneline --since="[start-date]" --until="[end-date]" -- docs/knowledge-base/
3. Analyze and Generate
Read each retrospective/learning file and extract:
- Task descriptions
- Types (feature, bugfix, refactor, etc.)
- Key decisions
- Open items (unchecked checkboxes)
4. Create Summary File
Use the template below.
5. Commit
git add docs/summaries/
git commit -m "docs: [weekly|monthly] summary for [period]"

From the file to a first result
The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.
View the source and supporting filesThis download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.
1. Download the file
Download SKILL.mdFrom the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.
Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.
mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx/download' --output '.skill-downloads/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx/SKILL.md'2. Check prerequisites
Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.
No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.
The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.
3. Load the skill
After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.
Official OpenSkills installationopenskills install './.skill-downloads/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx'openskills read 'session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx'Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.
For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.
openskills syncManual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.
4. Try a first task
Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:
Read .skill-downloads/session-summary-generator-mmbizkvx/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
