Recovery Skill

Restore session state from memory-keeper checkpoints after context is lost or when starting a new session.

When to Use

• Starting a new session on existing work
• After context was exhausted
• When asked "what was I working on?"
• When asked to "recover" or "restore" context
• After /​clear or session restart

Recovery Actions

1. Load Recent Context

context_get(limit: 50, sort: "created_desc")

2. Get Context Summary

context_summarize()

3. Find Progress Items

context_get(category: "progress", limit: 20)

4. Find High Priority Items

context_get(priority: "high", limit: 10)

5. Reconstruct State

From the retrieved context, extract:

• current-task: What was being worked on
• files-modified: Files that were changed
• implementation-progress: How far along
• next-action: What needs to happen next
• blockers: Any known issues

Recovery Output Format

Present the recovered state clearly:

## Session Recovered

### Previous Task
<current-task value>

### Progress
<implementation-progress value>

### Files Modified
<list of files-modified>

### Blockers/​Issues
<any blockers found>

### Recommended Next Action
<next-action value>

### Recent Checkpoints
1. <checkpoint 1 name>: <description>
2. <checkpoint 2 name>: <description>

---

Ready to continue. Confirm to proceed with: <next-action>

Recovery Checklist

• Load all recent context items
• Identify the current/​last task
• Find all files that were modified
• Determine progress percentage/​phase
• Locate the next action to take
• Check for any blockers
• Verify todo list state if available
• Present summary to user
• Get confirmation before proceeding

If No Context Found

If memory-keeper has no relevant context:

## No Previous Context Found

No checkpoints or progress items found in memory-keeper.

Possible reasons:
- This is a new session with no prior work
- Previous session did not checkpoint (work may be lost)
- Memory was cleared

To start fresh, describe what you'd like to work on.

Partial Recovery

If only some context is found:

## Partial Recovery

Found limited context from previous session:

### Available Information
<whatever was found>

### Missing Information
- [ ] Current task (not found)
- [ ] Files modified (not found)
- etc.

Would you like to:
1. Continue with available context
2. Start fresh
3. Provide additional context manually
