Save Session

save-session

MUST use when user says 'save', 'save session', or explicitly wants to preserve session state. {USER_NAME} does NOT use slash commands; also trigger proactively when significant work has been completed and session context should be persisted. For session endings (bye/done/goodbye), use the session-end skill instead which combines save-session + save-diary.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by faizkhairi on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Save Session AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/faizkhairi/claude-code-blueprint/tree/main/skills/save-session
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/faizkhairi/claude-code-blueprint.git /tmp/claude-code-blueprint
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/claude-code-blueprint/skills/save-session .claude/skills/save-session
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Save Session in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Save Session on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Save Session is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Prerequisite check (run first): if ./memory/ does not exist OR ~/.claude/.memory-disabled marker file is present, this skill is a no-op. Output: "Memory persistence is disabled. Run ./setup.sh and choose to enable memory if you want this skill to work."

Save session state to memory:

  1. Update session.md at ./memory/core/session.md:

    • Current topic and what we're working on
    • Recent progress (what was accomplished this session)
    • Next steps (what should happen next session)
    • Any blockers or open questions
  2. Update reminders at ./memory/core/reminders.md:

    • Ask the user if there are any pending tasks, deadlines, or reminders to carry forward
    • Remove completed reminders (move to Completed section with date), keep active ones, add new ones
  3. Update per-project context: If working on a registered project, update ./memory/projects/active/{project}.md → Session Context section:

    • Last worked on (what specifically)
    • In progress (current state)
    • Next up (what should happen next on THIS project)
  4. Check preferences.md: If new preferences or work patterns were observed during this session, update ./memory/core/preferences.md

  5. Check MEMORY.md: If new technical learnings or gotchas were discovered, update {MEMORY_MD_PATH}. After any edit, count total lines; if over 170, warn that MEMORY.md is approaching the 200-line auto-truncation limit and suggest moving content to topic files.

  6. Check decisions.md: If a non-obvious architectural or technical decision was made this session (something future-us would ask "why?"), append to ./memory/core/decisions.md using the existing format: ## YYYY-MM-DD: Title / **Context** / **Decision** / **Rationale**

  7. Diary (if this was a significant session, e.g., feature shipped, major bug fixed, architecture decision made): Use the save-diary skill to create or append an entry to ./memory/diary/current/YYYY-MM-DD.md

  8. Git commit + push memory: Stage all changed files in memory, commit with a descriptive message, and push to GitHub (git push origin main). This keeps the remote diary and session state up to date.

  9. Confirm: Summarize what was saved and where

Frequently asked questions

What does the Save Session AI skill do?

MUST use when user says 'save', 'save session', or explicitly wants to preserve session state. {USER_NAME} does NOT use slash commands; also trigger proactively when significant work has been completed and session context should be persisted. For session endings (bye/done/goodbye), use the session-end skill instead which combines save-session + save-diary.

Why use Save Session on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Save Session is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Save Session in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/faizkhairi/claude-code-blueprint/tree/main/skills/save-session. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Save Session?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Save Session?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Save Session with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Save Session AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by faizkhairi under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
