recap

omnisess recap

Produce a structured markdown briefing of AI coding sessions for a given time window.

Usage

/omnisess:recap [today|yesterday|Nd]

• Default window: today (last 24 hours)
• yesterday — last 48 hours (rolling approximation — includes today's sessions too)
• Nd — last N days (e.g., 3d = last 72 hours)

Instructions

Step 1: Binary guard

Check that the omnisess binary is available before proceeding:

if ! command -v omnisess &>/dev/null; then
  echo "omnisess not found. Install it with:"
  echo "  go install github.com/psacc/omnisess@latest"
  exit 1
fi

Step 2: Resolve the time window

Determine the --since duration from the argument (default to today if none provided):

• today (or no argument) → --since=24h
• yesterday → --since=48h
• Nd where N is an integer → --since=<N*24>h (e.g., 3d → --since=72h)

If the argument does not match any of the above patterns, print:

Unknown window: <arg>. Use: today, yesterday, or Nd (e.g., 3d).

and exit 1.

Step 3: Fetch sessions as JSON

Run:

omnisess list --since=<resolved-duration> --json

Capture the JSON output. If the command exits with a non-zero status, print:

No sessions found for <window>.

and exit 1.

Step 4: Filter sessions

From the JSON array, discard:

1. Sessions where the preview field is empty or missing
2. Sessions where the preview field starts with / (these are Claude Code slash-command invocations — operational noise, not coding work)

If the filtered list is empty, print:

No sessions found for <window>.

and exit 0.

Step 5: Group by project

Group the remaining sessions by their project field (the project path). Use the basename of the path for display (e.g., ~/prj/myapp → myapp), but preserve the full path for the session detail lines.

Step 6: Summarize each group

For each project group, read the session previews and reason about:

• Intent: What the user was trying to accomplish in this session
• Outcome: What was achieved or produced (be specific if the preview contains enough detail)
• Status: One of complete, in-progress, or unclear

Keep summaries concise (1–2 sentences per session).

Step 7: Render the markdown briefing

Output the following structure:

# Recap: <date range>

_<N> sessions across <M> projects_

## <project-basename>

- **<tool>:<short-id>** (`<full-project-path>`): <intent> — <outcome> · _<status>_

## Pending

- **<tool>:<short-id>** in `<project-basename>`: <reason why in-progress or unclear>

Rules:

• The date range header uses the resolved window (e.g., "last 24h", "last 3 days")
• The ## Pending section is omitted entirely if all sessions have status complete
• List sessions within each project group in reverse chronological order (most recent first)

Notes

This skill is the public sessions-only version of /recap. It does not integrate with Slack, Jira, Granola, or Todoist. Those integrations belong in a private local skill.
