catchup

Answer "where did I stop?" for this project. Gives three short groups, done, open and next, taken from the last chat, the recorded to-dos, the last handoff note and git. Use when the user comes back to a project, starts a new chat, or asks where they left off. It writes nothing.

Where did I stop?

Run this from the project root:

claude-db catchup

It prints what memory and git know about this project, in plain text. Some parts may be missing. A part with nothing in it is left out.

  • Last handoff is a note the user or a teammate saved on purpose. Trust it most, unless its heading says older than the last chat. Then the last chat is newer, and wins where they differ.
  • Not finished yet in another chat is a request another chat is still working on, or that was stopped. Say so under Open.
  • Last chat and Chat before are the other chats with the newest recorded requests, open or ended, newest first: the 5 newest requests in all.
  • Still to do are to-dos found in earlier chats.
  • Not committed yet is recorded work that no commit has covered.
  • Decisions and dead ends are what was chosen or ruled out, with the reason.
  • Branch says which branch you are on and how many files are uncommitted.
  • Git status and Recent commits are the live state of the repository.

If the output is Nothing recorded for this project yet., say exactly that and stop.

Answer in three groups

Reply with these three groups and nothing else. Keep each to a few short lines in plain words.

Done: what is finished. Take it from the last chat, the recent commits and the handoff's Done line.

Open: what is started but not finished. Take it from Not committed yet, Git status, the to-dos and the handoff's Open line.

Next: what to do first. Take it from the handoff's Next line, then from the to-dos.

Rules

  • Use only what the output shows. Do not read other files or search memory unless the user asks.
  • Mark anything you are unsure of with (guess). Never state a guess as a fact.
  • If there is no clear next step, write No clear next step found. Do not invent one.
  • Say how old the information is. Use the dates in the output, for example Last chat (Oct 6).
  • Do not save anything. Do not run any command that changes the repository.

Map this codebase into project memory — a code graph of every symbol and how they connect, plus a written profile of stack, layout, conventions and workflows. Re-run any time to refresh both in place. Use when memory is newly installed on an existing project, or when the project has changed enough that the stored map is stale.

Write a short handoff note for the next chat or a teammate, with what is done, what is open, what comes next and what was rejected and why. Saves it to project memory so the next chat sees it at the start, and prints it so it can be pasted into a message or a pull request. Use when the user ends a piece of work, switches tasks, or hands the project to someone.
