Path A: Subagent Available (Preferred)

Use the summarizer subagent for lower token cost:

Task(
  subagent_type: "summarizer",
  description: "Retrieve summaries",
  prompt: "List summaries for project 3afb861a-b783-45a6-bba2-4b6d96468aeb limit 5"
)

Path B: Script Fallback

If subagent unavailable, execute scripts directly:

bun .opencode/skills/memory-summary-retrieve/scripts/list-summaries.ts PROJECT_ID [LIMIT]
bun .opencode/skills/memory-summary-retrieve/scripts/get-summary-by-id.ts SUMMARY_ID
bun .opencode/skills/memory-summary-retrieve/scripts/format-summary-context.ts SUMMARY_ID

Output (Markdown):

## OBJECTIVE: Implement authentication

## PROGRESS:
- Created AuthService → JWT generation working
- Added middleware → Routes protected

## FILES TOUCHED:
| Path | Operation | Changes |
|------|-----------|---------|
| src/auth/service.ts | created | JWT logic |

## CURRENT STATE: Tests passing

## CRITICAL DETAILS:
- JWT_SECRET required in production
- Token expiry: 24h
