refresh
From the author
Start a clean Claude session with only the context the next task needs, instead of /compact. Captures the goal of your next session, points to the right files (never copies them), and outputs a self-contained prompt to paste into a fresh chat. Use when: "refresh", "refresh context", "fresh start", "my chat got sloppy", "start a new chat with context", "hand off this session", outputs degrading, drifting off task. Three levels: lite (quick reset), full (default handoff), ultra (full briefing). NOT for: summarizing in place (that's /compact), or saving permanent notes.

- context-modemohitagw15856/pm-claude-skillsKeep Claude Code sessions productive across resets with output filtering, session logging, and auto-resume. Use when starting a long or complex coding session, when previous sessions lost context mid-task, or when you need Claude to resume exactly where it left off after a reset. Produces a session.log at the project root, filtered command output that preserves context, and automatic resume of in-progress tasks after any reset.Productivity★ 1.5K
- claude-compaction-restoremvschwarz/openrigUse when a Claude Code session is about to compact, has just compacted, reached its context limit, resumed after /compact, or must rebuild its working picture of a long-running seat from its own restore map, its JSONL transcript and the files it touched.Engineering★ 8.6K
- memory-kitjeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplacePersistent context management for Claude Code sessions. Save, load, update, share, and audit session memory via MEMORY.md. Prevents context loss on compaction or session restart. Use when starting a session, before compaction, syncing context across teammates, or pruning stale memory entries. Trigger with "save memory", "load memory", "memory audit", "memory share".Productivity★ 2.9K
- compress-sessionpedrohcgs/claude-code-my-workflowDistill the current conversation into a structured note (decisions made, open questions, file pointers with line numbers, next 1–3 actions) and save to `quality_reports/session_logs/` before auto-compression. Differs from `/checkpoint` (explicit stop-point snapshot) and from auto-compaction (which truncates rather than distills). Use when context is approaching auto-compact threshold, when a long pipeline has accumulated many decisions, or when the user says "compress", "distil this session", "before we hit auto-compact", "structured handoff before context resets".Productivity★ 1.7K
- clear-contextathola/claude-night-marketManages context overflow by handing off to a fresh subagent at 80% usage. Use when context pressure is critical and work must continue uninterrupted.Productivity★ 345
- recallmichael-denyer/pstack-claudeReconstruct your recent working context from your own chat history, live state, and the shared record (user reports, prior fixes, incidents), then hand back a tight current-state brief. Use for 'recall my work on X', 'catch me up', 'what have I been working on', 'where did I leave off', before starting or resuming work, and before telling the user that something was never recorded.Productivity★ 3.8K
