Can I filter my search by repository?

Yes, the skill allows you to filter session history by repository path, ensuring you only see context relevant to your current project.

How does the auto-activation feature work?

It triggers automatically when you ask Claude questions like 'What did I do yesterday?' or 'How did I implement auth?' by matching specific trigger patterns in your prompt.

What is the benefit of the Two-Phase Search workflow?

It uses a broad discovery phase to find relevant timeframes followed by a deep-dive search into specific sessions, ensuring you find exact solutions without missing context.

Does this skill track git commits?

Yes, it can search and retrieve git commit messages and link them to development sessions to provide a complete picture of code changes.

Do I need an MCP server to use this skill?

While the MCP server is preferred for fast, structured JSON results, the skill includes a portable CLI fallback that works in environments where MCP is not configured.
