Session Chronicle

Excavate Claude Code session logs to capture complete provenance for research findings, ADR decisions, and code contributions. Traces UUID chains across multiple auto-compacted sessions.

CRITICAL PRINCIPLE: Registry entries must be self-contained. Record ALL session UUIDs (main + subagent) at commit time. Future maintainers should not need to run archaeology to understand provenance.

S3 Artifact Sharing: Artifacts can be uploaded to S3 for team access. See S3 Sharing ADR.

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

When to Use This Skill

• User asks "who created this?" or "where did this come from?"
• User says "document this finding" with full session context
• ADR or research finding needs provenance tracking
• Git commit needs session UUID references
• Tracing edits across auto-compacted sessions
• Creating a registry entry for a research session
