Session Info Skill

Returns the current Claude Code session UUID and registry information.

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

  • Need to know the current session UUID for debugging
  • Want to check the session chain history
  • Verify the session registry is working
  • Find correlation between sessions and transcripts

Implementation

Run the session info script:

bun $HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/statusline-tools/scripts/get-session-info.ts

Output Format

The script outputs structured session information:

Current Session: c1c1c149-1abe-45f3-8572-fd77aa046232
Short ID: c1c1c149
Project: ~/.claude
Registry: ~/.claude/projects/-Users-terryli--claude/.session-chain-cache.json
Chain Length: 3 session(s)
Last Updated: 2026-01-15T21:30:00.000Z

Note: The

Managed By
,
Metadata
(Repo, Hash, Branch, Model, Cost), and
Recent Sessions
sections shown in earlier versions of this doc are not yet implemented in
get-session-info.ts
. The script currently outputs only the 6 fields above.

Registry Location

The session registry follows Claude Code's native path encoding:

~/.claude/projects/{encoded-path}/.session-chain-cache.json

Where

encoded-path
replaces
/
with
-
:

  • /Users/username/eon/cc-skills
    -Users-username-eon-cc-skills

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, check before closing:

  1. Did the command succeed? — If not, fix the instruction or error table that caused the failure.
  2. Did parameters or output change? — If the underlying tool's interface drifted, update Usage examples and Parameters table to match.
  3. Was a workaround needed? — If you had to improvise (different flags, extra steps), update this SKILL.md so the next invocation doesn't need the same workaround.

Only update if the issue is real and reproducible — not speculative.
