SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Your Copilot chat history contains a record of everything you worked on, but it is locked away in a session store. This Skill queries that history to generate standup reports, surface workflow improvement tips, find past sessions, and analyze token costs. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Standup Reports: Generate a daily standup from the last 24 hours of sessions, grouped by branch and feature, with PR status checked via GitHub CLI. - Usage & Cost Tips: Analyze prompting patterns, tool usage, and token consumption to produce personalized, data-grounded recommendations for working more effectively and reducing spend. - Session Search & Maintenance: Search past sessions by keyword, file path, or PR number, reindex the session store, and get guidance on deleting session data. - Use Case: Before your morning standup, ask for a summary of yesterday's work and receive a formatted report of completed and in-progress items with linked PRs and session IDs. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to generate a standup report from your recent Copilot session history.

Frequently Asked Questions about chronicle

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a standup report from Copilot chat history?▼

Ask for a standup or daily summary and the skill queries the sessions table for the last 24 hours of activity. It groups work by branch and feature, checks PR status with the GitHub CLI, and formats Done and In Progress sections with linked PRs.

How do I search past Copilot sessions by keyword?▼

Request a session search with your keyword and the skill queries session summaries, conversation turns, file paths, and PR references. Local stores use the FTS5 search_index table while cloud stores use ILIKE pattern matching with time-windowed queries.

Why is the copilot_sessionStoreSql tool not available?▼

The session store tool requires the github.copilot.chat.localIndex.enabled setting to be true in VS Code Settings. Enable this setting first, then the skill can query your session history.

Can I analyze Copilot token usage and reduce costs?▼

Yes, request cost tips and the skill analyzes token consumption per session and model. Per-event token data requires cloud sync via chat.sessionSync.enabled; local-only stores use proxies like turn counts and compaction checkpoints instead.

How do I delete my Copilot session history?▼

Run the Delete Session Sync Data command from the Command Palette, which lets you choose sessions to remove from local storage and the cloud. The query tool intentionally does not support deletion to prevent accidental data loss.
