The user wants to resume work. Optional cwd override: $ARGUMENTS

Quick start

memory_sessions { "project": "<current-project-id>", "limit": 20 }

Pick the most recent session whose cwd matches this project, then: memory_recall { "query": "<session top concepts>", "project": "<current-project-id>", "limit": 10 }. When an agent is requested, pass the same agentId to both calls.

Expected output:

Resuming 7f3a9c2 "Auth refresh rework".
Open question: should logout revoke all device tokens or just the current one?
Next step: decide revoke scope, then update auth/logout.ts.

Why

Match the session by directory boundary, not raw prefix, so a sibling repo never gets mistaken for this one. Never invent observations for an empty session.

Workflow

1. Resolve the project path: if $ARGUMENTS is given, normalize it to absolute (path.resolve(process.cwd(), $ARGUMENTS)); else use the cwd.
2. Call memory_sessions with the exact project identifier when known, and agentId when requested. Otherwise follow nextCursor until the matching directory is found or pagination ends. Preserve filters between pages. Pick the most recent session whose normalized cwd matches by directory boundary: equality, OR cwd.startsWith(projectPath + sep), OR projectPath.startsWith(cwd + sep). Prefer completed over abandoned. No match: report that this project has no matching session and stop. Do not substitute a different project's session.
3. If the session ended on an unanswered user-facing question, surface it FIRST. Look in summary or recent conversation observations whose narrative ends in ?.
4. Summarize: title/summary, key files, key decisions or errors, using memory_recall on the top concepts, limit 10, preserving the chosen project and agent scope. Check each result's session or project provenance before including it; a query alone does not enforce scope.
5. End with one concrete "next step?" pointer.

Anti-patterns

WRONG: session.cwd.startsWith(projectPath) matches /repo-a-staging when the project is /repo-a, resuming the wrong repo's session.

RIGHT: session.cwd === projectPath || session.cwd.startsWith(projectPath + sep), a directory-boundary check that cannot cross sibling repos.

Checklist

• cwd override resolved to an absolute, normalized path.
• Match used a directory-boundary check, not a raw prefix.
• Unanswered question (if any) leads the response.
• Empty session is reported plainly, with an offer to start fresh.
