tzachbon recap-project
Read-only orientation. Pull the project's steering, board, recent history, and glossary, then print a short brief. Write nothing.
Core principle: answer two questions in under a screen, "where are we" and "what is next", from what the repo already records. No exploration beyond the files below unless they point you somewhere.
Read (in order)
AGENTS.md— what the project is, its norms, the directory map.TASKS.md— Now, Next, then open questions. This is the source of truth for what is in flight.- Recent git history —
git log --oneline -15andgit statusfor uncommitted work in progress. CONTEXT.md— the canonical terms, so you speak the project's language.
A brief, in this shape:
- What this is — one line.
- Where we are — current focus (TASKS Now), recent commits in plain words.
- What is next — TASKS Next, plus any uncommitted WIP that needs landing.
- Open questions — unresolved decisions that may block progress.
Keep it tight. Cite files by path so the reader can jump in. If TASKS.md Now and
Next are both empty, say the project is idle and surface the top Backlog items
instead.
Do not
- Write or commit anything. This skill only reads.
- Re-derive what the docs already state. Report them, do not reinvestigate.
