Auto-generate a reality-first weekly log from daily memory logs, git history, and agent state. Uses Claude to synthesize what actually happened — not a strategic filter, not a curated narrative. Supports backfill by week number. Use when a user says "weekly recap", "what happened this week", "weekly capture", or "reality check".

Weekly Reality Capture

Synthesize a reality-first weekly log from multiple data sources. The key insight: most weekly reviews optimize for narrative. This one optimizes for truth.

Data Sources

SourceWhat it captures
Daily memory logsWhat the agent did/discussed each day
Git logWhat code actually changed
Agent session stateOpen threads, pending follow-ups
Open threads JSONCarried-over work items

Usage

bash
# Current week
python3 scripts/capture.py
# Specific week
python3 scripts/capture.py --week 2026-W14
# Dry run (print synthesis prompt, don't call Claude)
python3 scripts/capture.py --dry-run

Why "Reality-First"?

Most automated weekly summaries read like press releases — they highlight wins and bury problems. This tool is designed to report what actually happened, including:

  • Threads that stalled without resolution
  • Promises made but not delivered
  • Work that was started then abandoned
  • Time spent on ops vs. creative work

The synthesis prompt explicitly instructs Claude to resist narrative smoothing.

Cron Setup

Run Sunday night to capture the full week:

cron
0 23 * * 0 /usr/bin/python3 /path/to/weekly-reality-capture/scripts/capture.py >> /tmp/weekly-capture.log 2>&1

Scripts

  • scripts/capture.py — Main script. Collects data, builds synthesis prompt, calls Claude, writes output.
