SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Returning to a project after days or weeks away means digging through dozens of PRs, issues, and commits to understand what changed. This Skill compiles everything that happened during your absence into one scannable briefing, so you regain context in minutes instead of hours. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Windowed activity gathering: Collects PRs, issues, direct commits, releases, discussions, and decision documents from the canonical remote over a 7, 14, or 30 day window. - Significance tiering: Promotes large diffs, substantive discussions, and breaking changes into deep dives while keeping chores and dependency bumps as one-liners. - Personal triage: Surfaces your assigned issues, requested reviews, mentions, and stalled PRs via the authenticated GitHub user. - Dual output: Delivers a chat executive summary plus a self-contained HTML digest organized by themes with a chronological timeline and per-item source links. - Use Case: After a two-week vacation, ask for a 14-day catch-up and receive a themed HTML report of everything merged, decided, and awaiting your action, with links to every source. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to catch me up on everything that happened in this repository over the last 14 days.

Frequently Asked Questions about catch-me-up

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I catch up on GitHub repository activity after time away?▼

Run the catch-up flow and pick a window of 7, 14, or 30 days. It queries PRs, issues, commits, releases, and discussions from the canonical remote, then delivers a chat summary and a themed HTML digest with links to every source.

How to get a summary of merged PRs and issues in a date range?▼

The skill gathers opened, merged, and closed PRs plus new, closed, and reopened issues within the chosen window. Significant items get deep-dive summaries with what, why, and implications, while chores stay as one-liners.

Does the GitHub catch-up report require the gh CLI?▼

Yes, the gh CLI must be installed and authenticated. If gh is missing or unauthenticated, the skill stops with a clear message rather than inventing a report, since every claim must link to a real PR, issue, commit, or doc.

Can I see my assigned issues and requested reviews in the briefing?▼

Yes, the report includes a personal triage section built from the authenticated GitHub user: assigned issues, requested reviews, mentions, and your stalled PRs or those with changes requested, placed first in the chat summary.

What are the limitations of an automated project activity digest?▼

The digest only covers activity visible on the canonical remote within the chosen window, so local work and unmerged branches are excluded. Thematic groupings are the agent's interpretation and are labelled as synthesis, not fact.
