Built two throwaway .specstory/history session files (a bug fix, a research walkthrough) and ran the real grep-based chunked-reading strategy the skill specifies; output came back as a clean per-session standup block with outcome emoji and a trailing Patterns/Unfinished section, clearly more standup-ready than my own unguided free-text summary of the same two files.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5

What Specstory Session Summary does
Reads recent .specstory/history/*.md session files and produces a structured standup summary — goal, outcome emoji, files touched, key insight per session, plus a trailing patterns/unfinished-work section. Triggers when the user wants to review recent AI coding sessions, prep for standup, or recall what was accomplished.
