How does Memento handle context across different git branches?

The skill automatically detects your current git branch and maps it to a specific session file, ensuring that the AI always operates with the correct local context.

What happens when I switch branches?

When you switch branches, the session manager identifies the change and prompts you to load or create the relevant session context for that specific branch.

Can I use this skill to track 'what's next' in my project?

Yes, it is specifically designed to answer 'where was I?' and 'what's next?' by reading and updating persistent session logs.

Does it require a session before making code changes?

Yes, the skill includes a blocking requirement that ensures an active session is established before editing source files to maintain workflow integrity.
