recover-context

The 'recover-context' skill is designed to extract the full context of the last task from a parent session within a session lineage. This is particularly useful when you need to revisit or continue a previous task but don’t want to manually search through long conversation histories. By leveraging session lineage, this skill ensures you retrieve relevant context quickly and without context overload. It strategically delegates context extraction to sub-agents, helping avoid bloating your own context while keeping the task information concise and relevant.

The skill identifies the most recent parent session in the lineage and extracts the key details of the last task worked on, including its status, pending items, key decisions, and any relevant files. If sub-agent support is available, the 'session-searcher' subagent is used to analyze the session, or alternatively, the 'aichat:session-search' skill is employed. The main features of the skill include context extraction, summarization, and file discovery. It ensures a streamlined and efficient way of resuming work on tasks without unnecessary context growth.

This skill is ideal for users working in dynamic task environments, where multiple sessions are created, and the need to recall specific task contexts from previous sessions is frequent. It’s particularly useful for project managers, developers, and anyone managing complex workflows that involve many intertwined sessions and tasks.
