Session Recall

Search OpenClaw session transcript JSONL files to locate past conversations. Returns file paths and line numbers — read the relevant lines yourself to recover context.

When to Use

• Missing context signal: Current session is new/short AND the user's message references people, events, decisions, or topics not present in your context — they clearly assume you know something you don't
• Explicit recall: User says things like "continue where we left off", "as we discussed", "remember when we talked about..."
• Self-check: You're about to reply "I don't have context" or "which topic are you referring to" — stop and use this skill first before asking the user to repeat themselves
• You need to find when/where a specific topic was discussed
