name: save-session-context description: Save current session state for later resumption. Use after completing workflow phases or before ending a session. trigger: After completing a workflow phase, before session end, or when switching to different task

Save Session Context

Saves the current workflow state to enable seamless session resumption.

When to Use

• After completing each phase in health orchestrator workflows
• Before ending a long-running session
• When switching context to a different task
• After significant progress that should be preserved

When NOT to Use

• For simple, quick tasks that don't need resumption
• When workflow is fully complete (clean up instead)

Algorithm

Step 1: Gather Current State

Collect the following information:

• Current workflow name and phase
• Priority level and completion counts
• Last completed action
• List of modified files (from git status)

Step 2: Get Git State

Run git status and git log -1 to capture:

• Current branch
• Uncommitted files count
• Last commit hash and message

Step 3: Determine Next Steps

Based on current phase and workflow, identify:

• Immediate next action
• Following 2-3 actions

Step 4: Write Context File

Write to .tmp/current/session/context.md:

Copy# Session Context

> Auto-generated by save-session-context skill. Updated: [ISO timestamp]

## Current State

- **Workflow:** [workflow-name]
- **Phase:** [current]/[total] ([phase-name])
- **Priority:** [priority-level] ([completed] of [total] fixed)
- **Last Action:** [description]

## Active Files

[List from git status]

## Next Steps

1. [Next action]
2. [Following action]
3. [Third action]

## Git State

- **Branch:** [branch-name]
- **Uncommitted:** [count] files
- **Last Commit:** [hash] "[message]"

## Quality Gate Status

- **Type-check:** [status]
- **Build:** [status]
- **Tests:** [status]

## Resume Instructions

To continue this session:
1. Read this file to understand current state
2. Read `session-log.md` for recent decisions
3. Continue from "Next Steps" section

Step 5: Confirm Save

Output confirmation message with file path.

Implementation Notes

Copy# Get git state
git status --porcelain | wc -l  # Uncommitted count
git log -1 --format="%h %s"     # Last commit
git branch --show-current       # Current branch

Output

Confirmation message:

CopySession context saved to .tmp/current/session/context.md
- Workflow: health-bugs
- Phase: 3/7 (Staged Fixing)
- Uncommitted: 2 files

Token Cost

• Execution: ~50 tokens for git commands
• Output: 0 (write-only operation)
