 "title": "Pick up a coding task after the chat compacts",
 "page_title": "How to pick up a coding task after the chat compacts with Context Mode",
 "summary": "Keep edits, tasks, and decisions in SQLite so the agent can recover them after compaction.",
 "who": "A developer on a multi-hour refactor who loses track of which files and tasks were in progress after the agent compacts the conversation.",
 "problem": "When the conversation compacts, the agent forgets which files it was editing, what tasks are open, and what the user last asked for.",
 "outcome": "After compaction the agent retrieves the relevant events through BM25 search and continues the same task.",
 "steps": [
  "Install Context Mode with the Claude Code plugin steps from the README.",
  "Work on the task so that file edits, git operations, and decisions are recorded.",
  "When the session compacts, let the agent continue in the same session.",
  "If you need the earlier data in a later session, start that session with `--continue`, because without it previous session data is deleted immediately."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "After a context compaction in the <project-name> repo, use context-mode to search the session events for the last edited files and open tasks. List them and ask me to confirm before continuing the work.",
 "agents": [
  "claude-code"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says previous session data is deleted unless you use --continue, so plan which sessions you want to keep before starting a new one.",
