Summarize Activity
This skill allows you to manually trigger an activity summary for any scope.
Usage
When invoked with /summarize, you should:
Determine the scope - Ask the user or infer from context:
global- All activity across projectsproject:<name>- Activity specific to a project
Trigger the summary using
trigger_summary:tool: trigger_summary scope: "project:brain-jar" // or "global"Report the result - Show the user what was summarized:
- Period covered
- Number of memories included
- Key themes/tags
- Top items
Examples
User: /summarize
Response: "What scope would you like to summarize? I can summarize all activity (global) or a specific project."
User: /summarize project:brain-jar
Response: Immediately trigger summary for that scope and report results.
When Summaries Are Automatically Generated
Summaries are also generated automatically when:
- 12+ memories are added to a scope (and at least 24h since last summary)
- 1 week passes with any activity in a scope
Use /summarize to force a summary at any time, regardless of these thresholds.
