# Chat Log

Use this as a short trigger for `~/.codex/skills/conversation-logger`.

When this skill is invoked, follow the `conversation-logger` workflow:

1. Read `~/.codex/skills/conversation-logger/SKILL.md` if its workflow is not already loaded.
2. Use `~/.codex/skills/conversation-logger/scripts/log_turn.py` to create or continue the thread archive.
3. Save each user query and substantive assistant response as separate timestamped Markdown files under the configured archive root.
4. If the user asks to find or continue from prior logs, use `~/.codex/skills/conversation-logger/scripts/find_logs.py`.

The intended shortest user invocation is:

```text
$chat-log
```

Useful examples:

```text
$chat-log continue from the conversation where we made the logger skill
$chat-log find the logs about Vercel deployment
$chat-log summarize my recent Codex chats
```
