claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix UserPromptSubmit hooks enable cross-session continuity — this should be native [1 participants]

TL;DR

Implementing a native session summary and context retrieval feature would likely resolve the issue of lost context in Claude Code sessions.

Guidance

• The current implementation using UserPromptSubmit hooks and TF-IDF retrieval over past .tok files is a good starting point, but making it native would require integrating it into the core system.
• To achieve a zero-effort solution, the system should automatically write a session summary on conversation end, including the last 3 topics and unfinished items.
• Retrieving relevant past summaries on session start and injecting them as system context before the first prompt would also be necessary.
• The full implementation details, available on request, could provide further insight into the required changes.

Notes

The proposed solution relies on the existing hook system and primitives, which have already been proven to work in the custom implementation.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: The custom implementation, although not native, has been shown to be effective and could be used as a temporary solution until a native feature is developed.
