Session Summarizer

Session Summarizer

Reads the current Claude Code session and produces a clean, structured summary the user can paste into notes, share with teammates, or use to resume work in a future session.

The summary is language-matched: if the conversation has been in Turkish, output Turkish. If English, output English. If mixed, follow the user's most recent messages.

Phase 1 — Detect scope

Before summarizing, decide what to cover:

• Default: full session from the first user message to the most recent.
• If the user says "son N mesajı özetle" / "summarize the last N messages" → scope to that window.
• If the user says "X konusunu özetle" / "summarize the X part" → filter to messages relevant to that topic only.
• If the user says "kısaca özetle" / "tldr" / "brief" → produce the short form (see Phase 3, "Short form").

Also detect if any files were changed in the session by running:

git diff --name-only HEAD 2>/dev/null
git status --short 2>/dev/null

If there are changed files, include them in the "Changes Made" section. If not, omit that section entirely (don't show empty sections).

Phase 2 — Extract signals from the conversation

Read the conversation top-to-bottom and pull out:

Goals & intent

• What the user originally asked for
• How the goal evolved or was refined mid-session

Decisions

• Choices made (e.g. "we decided to use Postgres over SQLite because…")
• Tradeoffs accepted
• Things explicitly ruled out

Actions taken

• Files created, edited, or deleted
• Commands run that had meaningful effect (installs, migrations, deploys)
• External operations (PRs opened, issues filed, services called)

Findings

• Bugs discovered
• Things learned about the codebase or system
• Surprises or non-obvious behavior uncovered

Open questions / unresolved

• Things the user asked but were not answered
• Errors that were worked around but not fixed
• "We'll come back to this" items

Next steps

• Explicit TODOs the user stated
• Logical next actions implied by where the session left off

Skip:

• Routine tool calls without meaningful outcome
• Back-and-forth clarifications that didn't change direction
• Anthropic boilerplate / system messages

Phase 3 — Format the output

Standard form (default)

# 📋 Oturum Özeti — {YYYY-MM-DD}

## 🎯 Amaç
{1-2 cümle: kullanıcı bu oturumda ne yapmak istedi}

## ✅ Yapılanlar
- {Eylem 1 — somut, fiil ile başla}
- {Eylem 2}
- {…}

## 🧠 Kararlar
- {Karar 1 — neden alındı}
- {Karar 2}

## 📁 Değişen Dosyalar
- `path/to/file.ext` — {ne değişti, kısaca}
- `path/to/other.ext` — {…}

## 🔍 Bulgular
- {Bulgu 1}
- {Bulgu 2}

## ❓ Açık Konular
- {Cevaplanmamış soru veya çözülmemiş sorun}

## ⏭️ Sonraki Adımlar
- [ ] {TODO 1}
- [ ] {TODO 2}

For English sessions, use the same structure with English headers: Goal, Done, Decisions, Files Changed, Findings, Open Questions, Next Steps.

Omit any section that has no content. Do not output empty headers.

Short form ("tldr" / "kısaca")

3-5 bullet points, no headers:

**Özet ({YYYY-MM-DD})**
- {En önemli nokta 1}
- {En önemli nokta 2}
- {Sonraki adım}

Phase 4 — Quality rules

• Be specific. "Auth middleware refactored" beats "made some changes". Name files, functions, decisions.
• Be honest. If something failed or was worked around, say so. Don't paint over partial work as complete.
• One pass, no fluff. No "In this session we explored…" intros, no "Hope this helps!" outros. Start with the heading, end with the last bullet.
• Preserve user voice. If the user used a specific term ("ingestion pipeline", "ödeme akışı"), reuse it instead of paraphrasing.
• Group related items. Don't list five separate "edited X" bullets when they all belong to one feature — collapse them.
• Time-anchor open items. If the user said "Thursday" or "next sprint", convert to absolute date (today is {{todays date}}) so the summary stays readable later.

Phase 5 — Delivery

Output the summary directly in the chat as markdown. Do not write it to a file unless the user explicitly asks ("dosyaya kaydet", "save to file").

If the user does ask to save:

• Default path: ./session-summary-{YYYY-MM-DD}.md
• If file exists, append a counter: -2.md, -3.md
• Confirm the path after writing.

Edge cases

• Empty / very short session: If the conversation has fewer than 3 meaningful exchanges, say:

  "Oturum çok kısa, özetlenecek bir şey yok henüz." / "Session is too short to summarize yet."

• Only questions, no actions: Produce the Goal + Findings + Open Questions sections only; skip Done/Files Changed.
• Multi-topic session: Group the summary by topic with ## Konu: X subheaders if there were 2+ unrelated workstreams.
• User asks for re-summary: If a summary was already produced earlier in the session, summarize what happened since that point and reference the prior summary briefly.
