What it does

This skill has the agent turn a project's full claude-mem activity log into a multi-chapter story, with one chapter per ISO calendar week. It splits the timeline into per-week files, then writes each chapter in order, with each chapter's writer receiving a short summary of the previous chapters so the narrative stays continuous. The output is a folder of digest files plus a weekly index table.

Great for

  • Developers who want a readable, chronological story of how a project evolved
  • Teams wanting a retrospective narrative of coding sessions week by week
  • Anyone already running claude-mem who wants a serial history instead of one long report

Skip it if

  • Users wanting a single short summary; the skill produces one chapter per week, so long histories yield many files and a long run (the 'timeline-report' skill is better for that)
  • Projects with sensitive history, since the timeline may include security-related or sensitive observations that get copied into written files
  • Environments where the agent should not write into arbitrary folders or launch many sub-agent runs, as the process is slow and multi-step

Try asking

  • “Create weekly digests for this project's claude-mem timeline”
  • “Give me a week-by-week story of the project's history”
  • “Run a serial timeline with narrative chapters”
  • “Continue the story week by week from the saved timeline”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Confirm the output directory is safe to write into before starting, since the skill creates several files and folders
  • Run it on a project with a reasonable number of weeks first to gauge runtime, because subagents run one after another
  • Review the generated digests for sensitive content before sharing them outside your team
