Weekly Digests

Turns a project's full claude-mem timeline into a serial, chapter-per-ISO-week narrative built by a chained sequence of subagents.

UtilitiesAdvanced★ 90,139⑂ 7,846AI score 8/10Last updated: Aug 9, 2026

What it does

  • Pulls the complete project timeline from the claude-mem worker into .scratch/cm-timeline.md.
  • Splits it into per-ISO-week files (Monday start) with a dual-pass check that no observations are lost.
  • Builds a weekly index README (Week | Dates | Observations | Sessions | File) as the operator's roadmap.
  • Dispatches one sequential subagent per week; each inherits the previous week's carry-forward block (~350-word cap, aggressive pruning of dormant arcs) so the story stays coherent.
  • Special handling for the first chapter (empty carry-forward), the last chapter (## Where We Are instead of a false ending), and the N=1 case.
  • Renames digests with zero-padded numeric prefixes so they sort correctly.

Who it's for

  • Developers already running claude-mem who want their project history as a readable retrospective.
  • Team leads who want to see cadence — surge weeks, trough weeks, recurring bugs treated as characters.
  • Anyone who prefers serialized chapters over the single long timeline-report.

Examples

  1. "Make weekly digests for this project from beginning to end" → 30 week files, 30 chapters, named 00-…md through 29-…md.
  2. A 3-week project: chapter 1 establishes cast and tone, chapter 2 continues, chapter 3 closes with ## Where We Are.
  3. A single-week project: one chapter that is both origin and close, with no references to nonexistent chapters.
