Where does the skill look for my session history?

The skill searches for markdown files within the .specstory/history/ directory of your current project folder.

How does it handle very long coding sessions?

It uses a smart chunking strategy that greps for user messages and tool calls, reading the beginning and end of files to capture the initial goal and the final outcome without exceeding token limits.

What is SpecStory and how does it work with this skill?

SpecStory is an AI coding assistant that automatically saves your sessions as markdown files. This Claude Code skill reads those files to generate human-readable summaries of your work.

What if no history folder is found?

The skill will gracefully exit and provide a link to the SpecStory website so you can install the necessary tools to start recording your sessions.

Can I summarize just the work I did today?

Yes, you can pass 'today' as an argument to the skill to filter the summaries to only include sessions from the current date.
