Session End

Finalize work session and prepare for merge.

Pre-End Checklist

Before ending session:

• All planned tasks complete
• All tests passing
• All changes committed
• Brain files synced

Execution Protocol

Step 1: Verify Task Completion

Read brain/plan.md and check:

code

All tasks marked complete?
├── YES → Continue
└── NO  → 
    ⚠️ INCOMPLETE TASKS
    
    Remaining:
    - Task N: [description]
    
    Options:
    [A] Complete remaining tasks first
    [B] Move incomplete to backlog and end session
    [C] Abort session-end

Step 2: Run Final Test Suite

bash

poetry run pytest tests/ -v --cov=src --cov-report=term-missing

All tests must pass to proceed.

Step 3: Final Brain Sync

Run /update-brain to ensure all files current.

Step 4: Verify All Committed

bash

if [ -n "$(git status --porcelain)" ]; then
    echo "Uncommitted changes detected"
    git status --short
    # Prompt to commit or stash
fi

Step 5: Update History Log

Append session summary to brain/history_log.md:

markdown

---

## Session: [timestamp]

### Summary
- **Date:** [date]
- **Duration:** [estimated hours]
- **Branch:** [branch name]

### Tasks Completed

| Task | Description | Commits |
|------|-------------|---------|
| 1 | [Task 1 title] | abc1234 |
| 2 | [Task 2 title] | def5678 |

### Key Decisions
1. [Decision made and rationale]
2. [Another decision if any]

### Files Changed

Modified: [count] files Created: [count] files Deleted: [count] files

code


### Notes
[Any observations, blockers encountered, or follow-up items]

Step 6: Archive Completed Plan

In brain/plan.md, move completed tasks to archive or clear for next session:

markdown

## Completed Sessions

<details>
<summary>Session [date] - [branch]</summary>

- [x] Task 1: [description]
- [x] Task 2: [description]

</details>

Step 7: Check Archive Threshold

If history_log.md has 10+ sessions since last archive:

code

Consider archiving old sessions to keep history_log.md manageable.
See history_log.md "Archived Sessions" section.

Incomplete Session Handling

If ending session with incomplete tasks:

markdown

### Incomplete Tasks (Moved to Backlog)

| Task | Status | Reason |
|------|--------|--------|
| Task 4 | Blocked | Waiting for API spec |
| Task 5 | Deferred | Out of scope |

These get logged in history and moved to backlog in plan.md.

Session Metrics

Track for continuous improvement:

•Tasks planned vs completed
•Estimated vs actual time
•Test coverage change
•Blockers encountered

Notes

•Session-end doesn't push automatically
•History is append-only (never delete entries)
•Backup is NOT created at session-end (created at session-start)
•Ready for /orchestrator-merge after session-end
