Loom Session End

Session End (Loom)

Leave the work picked-up-able by the next session. The board is the source of truth; the vault holds prose. The daemon auto-commits the vault — never run manual vault git.

Steps

1. Update the board task (tasks_update): note what was completed in the body, record decisions + their rationale, and add items for what remains. Move the task to its correct column by ROLE (review / terminal / parked). Only move to a terminal column if it's actually true — scoped work outstanding means it isn't done.
2. Code state — ensure the build/gate passes; commit only if asked. Report any uncommitted changes plainly. When you do commit, stage an explicit list of the paths this session touched (git add <path> …) — never git add -A or git add . in a shared workspace: other unrelated in-flight work may be present and a blanket stage would sweep it into your commit. Its subject follows the card's Conventional-Commits title (type(scope): summary). Push with plain git push (it already refuses a non-fast-forward — there is no valid --ff-only push flag); reach for --force-with-lease only as a deliberate guard when a force is genuinely intended.
3. Prose — if you changed design/architecture notes in the project's vault, apply /loom-doc-hygiene (rewrite in place, no contradictions, bounded).
4. Living resume doc (leads) — if you keep one, make sure it's current: what's merged, the prioritized backlog, key decisions, where things stand. A successor should be able to read it cold.
5. Summary — a short, factual wrap-up: what shipped, what's verified, what's left.

By role

• Worker: finish with worker_report — done (one-line summary + key decisions) or blocked (with needs). Don't merge; your manager reviews and gates. See /worker.
• Manager near your context window: hand OFF YOURSELF via recycle_me, seeding the successor from your living resume doc (worker_recycle is for recycling a subordinate worker, not yourself). See /orchestrate.

Lifecycle close-out

Once the board and code are clean, park the session honestly:

• Genuinely complete, session should stop: end it with end_me (self-terminal).
• More to do later, should resume: wake_me (a delay + a note) to park it for a later wake rather than leaving it idle.
