Summary

Structured progress tracking for multi-session development work with durable handoff files.

  • Four core modes: start a new session with project orientation, checkpoint progress with WIP commits and learnings capture, resume from SESSION.md with git diff context, and wrap sessions with completeness checks
  • Automatically manages SESSION.md files (progress log, current position, blockers, resume instructions) and updates CLAUDE.md with discovered patterns and gotchas
  • Reads git history and status to detect changes since last checkpoint, enabling clean context handoff across conversation boundaries
  • Designed for multi-phase features and work at risk of context compaction; skip for quick single-file edits or single-session tasks

Dev Session

Manage multi-session development work with structured progress files, checkpoint commits, and durable learnings. Produces SESSION.md files that survive context compaction and enable clean handoff between sessions.

Operating Modes

Mode 1: Start Session

When: Beginning multi-step work, "start session", "new session for [feature]"

  1. Check if SESSION.md already exists in the project root
  2. Pre-fill fields:
    • Project: from CLAUDE.md or directory name
    • Branch: from git branch --show-current
    • Last Updated: current timestamp
    • Phase: ask user what they're working on
  3. Read the project's CLAUDE.md to orient on context
