name: Context Consolidation description: Consolidate learnings from action logs into project docs and skills. Use when user asks to "consolidate", "compile learnings", "summarize sessions", or update project knowledge from .claude/action-log.jsonl.

Context Consolidation

Transform accumulated learnings into organized project knowledge.

Schema

Each action log entry:

Copy{"timestamp": "...", "transcript": "...", "learned": "...", "context": "..."}

• learned: The specific command, pattern, or fix
• context: When this applies (the trigger condition)

Process

1. Read Entries Since Last Consolidation

Copycat .claude/action-log.jsonl | jq -s '.'

Find last "event": "consolidation" marker. Process entries after that timestamp.

2. Group by Context

Group entries with similar context values - these are related learnings.

3. Decide: Skill vs Doc

Create skill when:

• Same context appears 2+ times
• learned contains commands or multi-step procedure
• Pattern is reusable across projects

Add to claude.md when:

• Single occurrence
• Project-specific config/values
• Facts or constraints

4. Create Outputs

For claude.md entries:

Copy## Learnings

### [Context Category]
- `learned` value here

For skills:

Copyskills/[name]/SKILL.md

Skill template:

Copy---
name: [Descriptive Name]
description: Use when [context]. [What it does].
---

# [Name]

[learned content, expanded if multi-step]

5. Append Consolidation Marker

Copy{"event": "consolidation", "timestamp": "2025-11-25T12:00:00Z", "summary": "Added X to docs, created Y skill"}

Key Principles

• Concrete over generic: Keep actual values, actual commands
• Context = trigger: The context field IS the "use when" condition
• Skip duplicates: Don't add same learning twice
• Minimal skills: Only create skills for repeated, multi-step patterns
