/weeklysummary — Weekly Work Summary

/weeklysummary — Weekly Work Summary

Your advisor wants a Friday update and you've been in three different workstreams this week.

When you need this

What it does — and what it won't

/weeklysummary reads all daily summaries from the current ISO calendar week, groups them by workstream, carries forward open TODOs, and flags workstreams that went quiet. Re-running it overwrites the existing weekly summary for the same week — it's a live document until the week closes.

Note: Requires Sonnet model availability. This command will not run on Haiku-only plans. If you are on a free or basic Claude plan, use /dailysummary and manually aggregate instead.

Prerequisites: Requires Sonnet model availability — this command will fail on Haiku-only plans. Also requires that daily summaries exist for the week; if you haven't written any, the output will be thin.

Worked example

Dario's advisor asks for a brief Friday update every week. He also uses it for the "last week" section of his lab meeting slides.

/weeklysummary

/weeklysummary reads five daily summaries from ISO week 16, then produces Weekly Summary/week_2026-W16.md grouped by workstream: Wage Regression — 3 sessions, completed placebo tests, identified heteroskedasticity issue, next: clustered SEs. Lit Review — 2 sessions, extracted 6 papers, drafted 800 words. Open items from the prior week that are still unresolved are surfaced at the top.

Try it

/weeklysummary

Run /commit after generating the weekly summary — it won't appear in your git history unless it's committed.
