- description:
- Summarize patterns from recent journal entries
Analyze recent journal entries and surface patterns, themes, and insights.
Sessions Location
Read entries from: Journal/
Each entry is a markdown file named YYYY-MM-DD.md with optional YAML frontmatter containing:
date: entry datemood: mood indicatorenergy: energy level
Process
Step 1: Read Recent Entries
- List all
.mdfiles in the Journal/ directory - Sort by filename (format: YYYY-MM-DD.md) - newest first
- Read the last 7-14 days of entries (or last 10 entries, whichever is fewer)
Step 2: Extract Key Content
For each entry:
- Parse any frontmatter (mood, energy)
- Read the Wins, Lessons, and What Happened sections
- Note the date
Step 3: Identify Patterns
Analyze across entries for:
- Recurring themes - Topics that appear in multiple entries
- Emotional patterns - Mood/energy shifts over time
- Unresolved threads - Things mentioned but not processed
- Progress markers - Shifts in perspective or resolution
Step 4: Present Insights
Format output as:
## Journal Reflection (last {n} entries)
### Themes
- [Theme 1]: Appeared in X entries - [brief context]
- [Theme 2]: ...
### Patterns
- [Notable pattern or shift]
### Open Threads
- [Unresolved topics that may benefit from attention]
### Insight
[One actionable observation - what might be worth exploring next]
