pod-resume

Your objective is to reconstruct context for a developer returning to this project after time away.

Before proceeding, verify that .cocoplus/ exists in the current directory. If it does not, output: "CocoPlus not initialized in this directory. Run $pod init to begin." Then stop.

Read Context

Read the following files in this order:

1. .cocoplus/project.md — project name, goal, description
2. .cocoplus/lifecycle/meta.json — current phase, phases completed
3. .cocoplus/lifecycle/plan.md — approved plan (first 500 characters only)
4. .cocoplus/flow.json — pending stages (extract stages where status != "completed")
5. .cocoplus/memory/decisions.md — last 3 decision entries
6. .cocoplus/grove/patterns/ — list of pattern files (names only)
7. .cocoplus/grove/cupper-findings.md — last 3 finding summaries

Generate Narrative

Output a narrative markdown document:

# Welcome Back

## Project
**Name:** [project name from project.md]
**Goal:** [goal from project.md]

## Where You Left Off
Last phase completed: [phase] on [date]
[1-2 sentence summary of what was accomplished]

## Approved Plan (excerpt)
[First 500 characters of plan.md]

## Pending Build Tasks
[List of pending flow.json stages: id, name, persona assigned]
If no pending stages: "All stages complete."

## Recent Decisions
[Last 3 decisions from memory/decisions.md]
If none: "No decisions recorded yet."

## Available Patterns
[List of pattern file names from grove/patterns/]
If none: "No patterns promoted yet."

## Intelligence Insights
[Last 3 CocoCupper finding summaries]
If none: "No CocoCupper analysis yet."

## Recommended Next Action
[Based on current phase — specific command to run next]

Complete in under 5 seconds.

Anti-Rationalization

Shortcut / Temptation	Why It Fails
Read only AGENTS.md and skip the other context files	AGENTS.md is a summary; accurate resume context requires reading meta.json, flow.json, and memory files directly
Show a long verbose dump of all files	Resume is a narrative oriented output — overwhelming detail defeats the purpose of fast re-orientation
Recommend a next action without checking current phase	Recommending $spec when the project is in the Test phase gives actively wrong guidance

Exit Criteria

• Output contains ## Project section with project name and goal
• Output contains ## Where You Left Off with last completed phase and brief summary
• Output contains ## Recommended Next Action with a specific command to run next
• All sections completed in under 5 seconds (no slow file scans)
