The user wants commit context for: $ARGUMENTS

Quick start

bash
git blame -L 40,52 src/auth/refresh.ts   # -> SHA 9a1b2c3d
json
memory_commit_lookup { "sha": "9a1b2c3d4e5f60718293a4b5c6d7e8f901234567" }

Expected output:

text
9a1b2c3 on main by dev: "rotate refresh tokens"
Linked session 7f3a9c2 "Auth refresh rework", 14 obs.

Why

Report only what git and the lookup return. When the lookup gives commit: null, the commit predates session linking; do not invent intent.

Workflow

  1. Find the SHA: git blame -L <start>,<end> <file> for a line range;

git log -L :<function>:<file> for a function; git log -n 1 -- <file> for a bare path.

  1. Look it up: memory_commit_lookup { "sha": "<full-sha>" }.
  2. Present the commit (sha, short sha, branch, author, message), the linked

session(s) (id, project, started/ended, observation count, summary), and the importance >= 7 observations via memory_recall when available.

Anti-patterns

WRONG: lookup returns { "commit": null }, you narrate "the agent was refactoring auth" from the diff alone.

RIGHT: "This commit predates session linking, so there is no recorded agent session. From git show: it changed token rotation in refresh.ts."

Checklist

  • SHA came from git blame/log, not a guess.
  • commit: null reported as "predates linking", no fabricated session.
  • Session details quote the lookup response verbatim.
  • No intent claimed beyond what observations state.

See also

  • commit-history: list many agent-linked commits at once.
  • recall: dig deeper into the linked session's observations.

Troubleshooting

See ../shared/TROUBLESHOOTING.md if `memorycommit_lookup` is not available.
