Read on session start. Tracks work progress in session files during conversations. Use when recording milestones, decisions, blockers, or when the session-start hook creates a session file.
Session files preserve high-signal context through long sessions and compaction, then help new sessions resume quickly from prior work. The session file path is provided by the session-start hook (e.g., ~/.cursor/projects/<project-id>/sessions/).
