Catchup — Context Reconstruction

This skill is strictly read-only. Do NOT edit files, create branches, or run write commands.

1. Gather data (run all independent steps in parallel)

• git log --format="%h %s (%ar)" -20, git status, and git worktree list
• Read .branch-context.md (if exists — check CWD and worktree root). Parse YAML frontmatter: workflow_step, validate_round/validate_max, review_round/review_max, plan_review_chunk/plan_review_total/plan_chunks_approved
• Read ai-workspace/MEMORY.md — note anything in-progress or blocking
• Read HANDOFF.md (if exists)
• List ai-workspace/plans/ (sort by mtime, most recent first) and read the first file that does NOT end in .done.md or .executed.md
• Search Basic Memory via MCP for recent entries matching the current branch name. If MCP unavailable, skip silently.
• GitHub — check availability first:

  command -v gh >/dev/null 2>&1 && gh auth status >/dev/null 2>&1
  

  If authenticated, run in parallel:

  gh pr list --state open
