The user wants commit context for: $ARGUMENTS
Quick start
git blame -L 40,52 src/auth/refresh.ts # -> SHA 9a1b2c3d
memory_commit_lookup { "sha": "9a1b2c3d4e5f60718293a4b5c6d7e8f901234567" }
Expected output:
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
- 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.
- Look it up:
memory_commit_lookup { "sha": "<full-sha>" }. - 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: nullreported as "predates linking", no fabricated session.- Session details quote the lookup response verbatim.
- No intent claimed beyond what observations state.
