source content
<objective> Create, list, or resume persistent context threads. Threads are lightweight cross-session knowledge stores for work that spans multiple sessions but doesn't belong to any specific phase. </objective> <process>

Parse $ARGUMENTS to determine mode:

<mode_list> If no arguments or $ARGUMENTS is empty:

List all threads:

ls .planning/threads/*.md 2>/dev/null

For each thread, read the first few lines to show title and status:

## Active Threads

| Thread | Status | Last Updated |
|--------|--------|-------------|
| fix-deploy-key-auth | OPEN | 2026-03-15 |
| pasta-tcp-timeout | RESOLVED | 2026-03-12 |
| perf-investigation | IN PROGRESS | 2026-03-17 |

If no threads exist, show:

No threads found. Create one with: /thrunt-thread <description>

</mode_list>

<mode_resume> If $ARGUMENTS matches an existing thread name (file exists):

Resume the thread — load its context into the current session:

cat ".planning/threads/${THREAD_NAME}.md"

Display the thread content and ask what the user wants to work on next. Update the thread's status to

IN PROGRESS
if it was
OPEN
. </mode_resume>

<mode_create> If $ARGUMENTS is a new description (no matching thread file):

Create a new thread:

  1. Generate slug from description:

    SLUG=$(node ".github/thrunt-god/bin/thrunt-tools.cjs" generate-slug "$ARGUMENTS")
    
  2. Create the threads directory if needed:

    mkdir -p .planning/threads
    
  3. Write the thread file:

    cat > ".planning/threads/${SLUG}.md" << 'EOF'
    # Thread: {description}
    
    ## Status: OPEN
    
    ## Goal
    
    {description}
    
    ## Context
    
    *Created from conversation on {today's date}.*
    
    ## References
    
    - *(add links, file paths, or issue numbers)*
    
    ## Next Steps
    
    - *(what the next session should do first)*
    EOF
    
  4. If there's relevant context in the current conversation (code snippets, error messages, investigation results), extract and add it to the Context section.

  5. Commit:

    node ".github/thrunt-god/bin/thrunt-tools.cjs" commit "docs: create thread — ${ARGUMENTS}" --files ".planning/threads/${SLUG}.md"
    
  6. Report:

    ## 🧵 Thread Created
    
    Thread: {slug}
    File: .planning/threads/{slug}.md
    
    Resume anytime with: /thrunt-thread {slug}
    

</mode_create>

</process> <notes> - Threads are NOT phase-scoped — they exist independently of the huntmap - Lighter weight than /thrunt-pause-work — no phase state, no plan context - The value is in Context and Next Steps — a cold-start session can pick up immediately - Threads can be promoted to phases or backlog items when they mature: /thrunt-add-phase or /thrunt-add-backlog with context from the thread - Thread files live in .planning/threads/ — no collision with phases or other THRUNT structures </notes>
