Loose Ends
List what's still open in THIS conversation so nothing gets forgotten after a tangent. Recall-only: no file writes, no task creation, no fixes — just the list.
Steps
- Re-read the whole conversation, oldest to newest. Collect candidates in four buckets:
- Suggestions or recommendations Claude made that got no decision ("worth doing X", "you may want to...", "I'd recommend...")
- Questions either side asked that never got answered
- Items the user explicitly deferred ("later", "not now", "let's come back to that")
- Problems surfaced but not acted on (errors, stale data, warnings, flagged risks)
- Check the session task list (TaskList) for open items and merge them in.
- Drop anything that was resolved later in the conversation — a tangent often resolves an earlier item implicitly. Verify each candidate against everything that came AFTER it.
- Drop anything already captured somewhere durable this session (HANDOVER.md, memory, Notion, a commit, a spawned task chip) — note it as "tracked" instead of listing it as open.
- Rank what's left: things blocking current work first, then decisions waiting on the user, then nice-to-haves.
- Output the list. If empty, say "Nothing outstanding" and name where the resolved items landed.
