Recap reads your project memory, recent git activity, and modified files, then assembles a one-page brief telling you exactly where you left off. It does not propose new work. It does not ask questions. It tells you, fast, where you are.

Built for people running multiple Claude Code projects in parallel — each with its own memory, branch, in-flight work, and unresolved decisions. Switching contexts mid-week, you forget which project had the unfinished migration and which one was waiting on a deploy. Recap collapses the "wait, where were we?" tax into 30 seconds of reading.

• →Skips the usual five-minute "remind me what we were doing" warm-up at session start.
• →Reads project memory automatically — no more re-explaining decisions you already made.
• →Surfaces blocked items and open questions from prior post-mortems.
• →Flags stale memory files that may need consolidating.
• →Ends with a guess at the most likely next move — phrased as a question, not a command.

• •Opening a project after a few days (or weeks) away.
• •Switching between multiple parallel projects in a single day.
• •Onboarding a new context window when the previous session expired.
• •Any time the first thought is "wait, where were we on this?"

Without this skill, every new session starts with Claude reading files, you re-explaining decisions, and a slow ramp-up before useful work happens. Recap front-loads the orientation: by the time you're 30 seconds into the session, both you and Claude know the branch state, in-flight work, open questions, and the most likely next move. The skill replaces the warm-up loop with a status brief.
