Where is my session data stored?

Session logs and updates are stored locally in the .claude/sessions/ directory within your project folder.

How do I initialize a session to use the update command?

You should use the /session-start command (part of the session plugin) to create an active session before using /session:update.

What does the Session Update skill do?

It captures your current development state, including Git status and TODO list progress, and appends it to your active Claude Code session file for better context retention.

Does it summarize my code changes automatically?

Yes, if no specific notes are provided as arguments, the skill can summarize recent file activities and git porcelain status to provide a snapshot of your work.

Can I use this skill without a Git repository?

Yes. While it provides Git metadata when available, it still tracks timestamps, manual notes, and TODO list progress in any project directory.
