/asciinema-tools:post-session

Complete post-session workflow: finalize orphaned recordings → convert to text → AI-powered summarize.

Arguments

Argument Description
file Path to .cast file (or auto-detect)
--finalize Include finalize step (stop processes, compress)
-q, --quick Quick analysis (keyword grep + brief summary)
-f, --full Full analysis (convert + AI deep-dive summarize)
--summarize Include AI summarize step (iterative deep-dive)
--output Save findings to markdown file

Workflow Modes

Quick Mode (-q)

[file] → convert → keyword grep → brief summary

Full Mode (-f)

[file] → convert → AI summarize (iterative deep-dive)

Complete Mode (--finalize --full)

stop processes → compress → push → convert → AI summarize

Execution

Phase 1: Discovery

AskUserQuestion:
  question: "What would you like to do?"
  header: "Workflow"
  options:
    - label: "Quick analysis (Recommended)"
      description: "Convert + keyword search + brief summary"
    - label: "Full AI analysis"
      description: "Convert + iterative AI deep-dive with guidance"
    - label: "Complete workflow"
      description: "Finalize orphans + convert + AI summarize"
    - label: "Finalize only"
      description: "Stop processes and push to orphan branch"

Phase 2: File Selection

If no file specified, discover available recordings:

/usr/bin/env bash << 'DISCOVER_EOF'
echo "=== Running asciinema processes ==="
ps aux | grep -E "asciinema rec" | grep -v grep | while read -r line; do
  PID=$(echo "$line" | awk '{print $2}')
  CAST=$(echo "$line" | grep -oE '[^ ]+\.cast' | head -1)
  if [[ -n "$CAST" ]]; then
    SIZE=$(ls -lh "$CAST" 2>/dev/null | awk '{print $5}' || echo "?")
    echo "  [RUNNING] PID $PID: $CAST ($SIZE)"
  fi
done

echo ""
echo "=== Recent .cast files ==="
find ~/eon -name "*.cast" -size +1M -mtime -7 2>/dev/null | while read -r f; do
  SIZE=$(ls -lh "$f" | awk '{print $5}')
  MTIME=$(stat -f "%Sm" -t "%m-%d %H:%M" "$f" 2>/dev/null)
  echo "  $f ($SIZE, $MTIME)"
done | head -10

echo ""
echo "=== Recent .txt files (already converted) ==="
find ~/eon -name "*.txt" -size +100M -mtime -7 2>/dev/null | while read -r f; do
  SIZE=$(ls -lh "$f" | awk '{print $5}')
  echo "  $f ($SIZE)"
done | head -5
DISCOVER_EOF
AskUserQuestion:
  question: "Which recording to analyze?"
  header: "Select"
  options:
    # Dynamically populated from discovery
    - label: "{filename} ({size})"
      description: "{path}"

Phase 3: Finalize (if selected)

Chain to /asciinema-tools:finalize:

  1. Stop running asciinema processes
  2. Verify file integrity
  3. Compress with zstd
  4. Push to orphan branch

Phase 4: Convert

/usr/bin/env bash << 'CONVERT_EOF'
CAST_FILE="$1"
TXT_FILE="${CAST_FILE%.cast}.txt"

echo "Converting: $CAST_FILE"
echo "Output: $TXT_FILE"

if asciinema convert -f txt "$CAST_FILE" "$TXT_FILE"; then
  ORIG=$(ls -lh "$CAST_FILE" | awk '{print $5}')
  CONV=$(ls -lh "$TXT_FILE" | awk '{print $5}')
  echo "✓ Converted: $ORIG → $CONV"
else
  echo "✗ Conversion failed"
  exit 1
fi
CONVERT_EOF

Phase 5: Analysis

Quick mode: Keyword grep + brief summary

# Run curated keyword searches
grep -c -i "error\|fail\|exception" "$TXT_FILE"
grep -c -i "success\|complete\|done" "$TXT_FILE"
grep -c -i "sharpe\|drawdown\|backtest" "$TXT_FILE"
# ... summarize counts

Full mode: Chain to /asciinema-tools:summarize

  • Initial guidance via AskUserQuestion
  • Strategic sampling (head/middle/tail)
  • Iterative deep-dive with user guidance
  • Synthesis into findings report

Phase 6: Output

AskUserQuestion:
  question: "Analysis complete. What next?"
  header: "Output"
  options:
    - label: "Display summary"
      description: "Show findings in terminal"
    - label: "Save to markdown"
      description: "Write findings to {filename}_findings.md"
    - label: "Continue exploring"
      description: "Deep-dive into specific sections"
    - label: "Done"
      description: "Exit workflow"

Example Usage

# Interactive mode - auto-detect and guide
/asciinema-tools:post-session

# Quick analysis on specific file
/asciinema-tools:post-session session.cast -q

# Full AI analysis with output
/asciinema-tools:post-session session.cast -f --output findings.md

# Complete workflow including finalize
/asciinema-tools:post-session --finalize -f

Related Commands

  • /asciinema-tools:daemon-status - View status and find unhandled files
  • /asciinema-tools:finalize - Finalize orphaned recordings

Troubleshooting

Issue Cause Solution
No recordings found No .cast files in ~/eon Check recording directory with find ~/eon
File discovery empty Wrong search path Manually specify file path as argument
Convert fails Corrupted .cast file Run /asciinema-tools:finalize first
AI summarize timeout Recording too large Use -q for quick analysis first
Orphan branch push fails Git authentication issue Check GitHub token with echo $GH_TOKEN
