/load-context

Search for and display prior session contexts from multiple sources.

Search query: $ARGUMENTS

Configuration

Notion database name: _clawd (customize to match your Notion setup)

Steps:

1. Check available sources

Run these checks silently to determine which options to show:

• Local /tmp: Check if /tmp/claude-contexts/ directory exists
• Swarm Progress: Check if .claude/swarm/progress/ directory exists
• Notion: Always available (requires Notion MCP)
• GitHub Issues: Check if in a git repo with remote: git remote get-url origin
• Docs folder: Check if docs/context/ directory exists using Glob
• Plans folder: Check if plans/ directory exists using Glob
• Claude Plans: Check if ~/.claude/plans/ directory exists

2. Show source picker

ALWAYS ask the user where to search - present available options:

Where would you like to search for context?

1. Local /tmp folder                  [only if /tmp/claude-contexts exists]
2. Swarm checkpoints (.claude/swarm/) [only if .claude/swarm/progress exists]
3. Notion (_clawd database)
4. GitHub Issues (in current repo)    [only if git remote exists]
5. Docs folder (./docs/context/)      [only if docs/context exists]
6. Plans folder (./plans/)            [only if plans/ exists]
7. Claude Plans (~/.claude/plans/)    [only if ~/.claude{-personal}/plans exists]

Select source:

3. Search selected source

If Local /tmp:

• List files using Glob: /tmp/claude-contexts/*.md
• If query provided, filter filenames containing the query
• If no query, show all files (sorted by name = date)
• Display list with filenames (which contain date and project)

If Swarm Progress:

• Search multiple swarm directories:
  • .claude/swarm/progress/*.md - Auto checkpoints and agent progress
  • .claude/swarm/research/*.md - Research phase outputs
  • .claude/swarm/plans/*.md - Implementation plans
  • .claude/swarm/context/*.md - Consolidated context files
• Sort by modification date (newest first)
• If query provided, use Grep to filter by content
• Display with category labels:

  Swarm Checkpoints:
    1. [Progress] auto-2024-12-19-phase2.md (1h ago)
       Goal: Add user authentication
    2. [Research] 2024-12-19-auth-research.md (2h ago)
       Topic: Authentication patterns
    3. [Plan] 2024-12-19-auth-plan.md (2h ago)
       Phases: 4
  

• Extract metadata from files:
  • Goal/Topic from first # heading
  • Phase from Phase: line (for progress files)
  • Number of phases from ### Phase headings (for plans)

If Notion:

• Search _clawd database with the query
• If no query provided, show recent contexts
• Search in page titles and content

If GitHub Issues:

• First check if gh CLI is installed by running: which gh
• If NOT installed, show this message and stop:

  GitHub CLI (gh) is not installed. Install it to search GitHub Issues.
  
  Install with:
    brew install gh          # macOS
    sudo apt install gh      # Ubuntu/Debian
    winget install GitHub.cli  # Windows
  
  After installing, authenticate with: gh auth login
  

• If installed, search issues:

  gh issue list --search "{query}" --json number,title,createdAt --limit 10
  

• If no query, list recent issues
• Display issue numbers, titles, and dates

If Docs folder:

• List files using Glob: docs/context/*.md
• If query provided, use Grep to search file content for matches
• If no query, show all files
• Display filenames with dates (extracted from filename)

If Plans folder:

• List files using Glob: plans/*.md
• If query provided, use Grep to search file content for matches
• If no query, show all files
• Display filenames (plans are typically named by feature/topic)

If Claude Plans:

• Detect plans directory: ~/.claude/plans/
• List files using Bash: ls -lt {plans_dir}/*.md | head -20 (sorted by modified date)
• For each plan file, extract metadata:
  • Title: First line starting with # (use head -1)
  • Summary: Look for ## Goal, ## Summary, or ## Overview section, take first 1-2 lines
  • Modified date: From ls -l output
• If query provided, use Grep to filter by title/content match
• Display in format:

  1. [2024-12-18] Portfolio Content Review
     Goal: Document and review portfolio content...
  
  2. [2024-12-17] Design Token Pipeline
     Goal: Automate design token sync from Figma...
  

• Sort by modified date (newest first)

4. Display results

Show results with:

• Title/filename
• Date (from filename or metadata)
• Preview (first 2 lines if available)

5. Ask user which context to view

If multiple results found, ask user to select which one to view.

6. Fetch and display full content

Local files (/tmp or docs):

• Use Read tool to display the full markdown content

Notion:

• Use mcp__notion__notion-fetch to retrieve and display page content

GitHub Issues:

• Use: gh issue view {number} --json body
• Display the issue body

Search Strategies

• By Project: Search for project name
• By Topic: Search for feature or topic
• By Type: Search for tag (Context, Summary, Spec, Reference)
• By Date: Search for date string or "recent"

When to Use

• Starting a new session on an existing project
• Picking up where you left off
• Need to reference prior decisions
• Looking for specs or guidelines
