Details
From the project READMEKetchup
The user stepped away; the session kept moving. Summarize what they missed in the order a returning person needs it.
Output
- Executive summary: 1-3 sentences — the state of the work and the one thing that most needs their attention.
- Action items, one line each: what was done, what failed, what is in flight — each with its status (done / failed / running / blocked) and, where it exists, its evidence link (ledger row, PR, log path).
- Open questions: anything the session needs from the user, or is waiting on, each with why it is blocked.
Rules
- Cover everything since their last message; silence about a failure is the worst failure mode this skill has.
- In-flight work is reported as in flight — no predicting results the notifications have not delivered.
- Each line is skimmable alone; no narrative paragraphs in the item list.
