What

mem::summarize re-summarizes a session from scratch on every run. The Claude Code Stop hook fires on every assistant turn, not at session end, so a session that reaches N observations does O(N²) summarization work over its lifetime — and for sessions past the chunking threshold, every turn re-runs every chunk's LLM call, not just the part that changed.

This adds two layers of change detection:

  1. Session-level skip — hash the compressed observation set (sourceFingerprint) and return the stored summary unchanged when the input is byte-identical to what produced it.
  2. Chunk-level memoization — cache each chunk's summary partial under a content-addressed key (chunkFingerprint), so appending one observation to a 400-observation session re-runs one chunk instead of all of them.

Plus the cache-reclamation paths those two require, and a per-session lock so concurrent runs don't both do the full work.

What the fingerprints hash

Both keys hash exactly the fields buildSummaryPrompt renders — id, type, title, narrative, facts, files — so a digest match means the LLM would receive a byte-identical prompt. src/prompts/summary.ts is the contract: a field that reaches the prompt without reaching the hash is a silent stale-summary bug, and there is a comment on hashObservationSet saying so. concepts is deliberately excluded — buildSummaryPrompt declares it but its template never renders it, so hashing it would force re-summarization that cannot change the output.

Fields are length-prefixed before hashing, so facts: ["a", "bc"] and ["ab", "c"] do not collide.

An id-only key would be unsound: a same-id rewrite (bulk import-jsonl with strategy !== "skip", or replay over an edited transcript) preserves every id while changing the text. Three tests cover the cases a weaker key would miss — a title-and-narrative rewrite, a facts-only change, and a files-only change.

An observationCount comparison is also unsound as a change signal: observations are not append-only. Four paths delete from live sessions — evict.ts per-observation eviction (age + importance, on a timer), evict.ts project-scoped eviction, mem::forget with explicit observationIds, and export-import.ts. A delete plus an equal-size append leaves the count unchanged and the content entirely different.

Ordering

kv.list is not order-stable — the file_based store is a hash map. sourceFingerprint sorts defensively, but chunk boundaries must be positionally stable across turns too, or every chunk key changes when the list order shifts and the cache never hits. The handler therefore sorts by id once before both fingerprinting and chunk slicing.

That sort doubles as a correctness fix: generateId's base36 timestamp prefix is a fixed 8 chars until 2059, so id order is chronological order. Observations now reach the LLM — and the reduce step's obsRangeStart/obsRangeEnd labels — in chronological order instead of arbitrary hash order. test/summarize.test.ts covers a permuted kv.list between turns.

Cache reclamation

KV.summaryChunks is introduced here, so this change owns its cleanup. Entries are reclaimed on:

  • whole-session delete (mem::forget, remember.ts)
  • stale-session and per-observation eviction (evict.ts) — per-observation eviction shifts every downstream chunk boundary, and whole-session delete never fires for a live session, so nothing else would reclaim these
  • explicit-ids mem::forget, same reason
  • every summarize run, which prunes entries whose keys are no longer live chunks

Without the last one the trailing chunk's key changes on each append and the cache grows unbounded.

On #1203

The per-session withKeyedLock here does not remove the duplicate dispatch — api::summarize stays publicly reachable, so two concurrent full-history passes over identical input are still possible. It serializes them, so the second one reaches the fingerprint skip instead of repeating the LLM work. Removing the duplicate trigger itself is a separate change.

How to verify

npx vitest run test/summarize.test.ts test/evict.test.ts test/remember-forget-audit.test.ts
npm test        # full suite: 159 files, 1725 pass, 1 skip
npx tsc --noEmit

tsc reports 30 pre-existing errors on main and the same 30 here — none in any file this branch touches.

New coverage: concurrent-run serialization; unchanged-session skip; re-summarize on append; re-summarize on a same-id rewrite, on a facts-only change, and on a files-only change; chunk reuse on append; chunk reuse under permuted kv.list; dead-entry pruning; and cache reclamation from each eviction and forget path.

Fixes #1131.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Improved summary generation with per-chunk caching and change detection.
    • Prevented duplicate summary work when sessions are processed concurrently.
    • Added support for forcing summary regeneration.
    • Summaries now process observations chronologically for more consistent results.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Summary caches are cleared when sessions or observations are removed.
    • Unchanged summaries are preserved while outdated cached chunks are cleaned up.
    • Dry-run evictions no longer modify summary caches.

api::summarize remains publicly reachable, so removing the stop hook's
duplicate dispatch does not prevent two concurrent full-history LLM
passes over identical input. Take the shared keyed mutex per sessionId.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 18238

The PR adds persistent summary caching, but deletion and replacement flows can race with summarization or fail to invalidate all derived summaries, allowing content from forgotten observations to remain or be recreated. This creates a concrete data-retention risk that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

…ls (rohitg00#1131)

The Stop hook fires on every assistant turn, so mem::summarize re-ran the
whole session each turn - quadratic in turn count, and for sessions past
the chunking threshold it re-ran every chunk LLM call, not just the part
that changed.

Two layers of change detection:

- Session level: hash the compressed observation set and return the
  stored summary when the input still matches.
- Chunk level: cache each chunk partial under a content-addressed key,
  so appending one observation re-runs one chunk instead of all of them.

Both fingerprints hash exactly the fields buildSummaryPrompt renders
(id, type, title, narrative, facts, files), so a digest match means the
LLM would receive a byte-identical prompt. An id-only key false-skips a
same-id rewrite; an observationCount comparison false-skips too, since
observations are not append-only - eviction and mem::forget both delete
from live sessions, so a delete plus an equal-size append leaves the
count unchanged and the content different.

Observations are sorted by id before both fingerprinting and chunk
slicing: kv.list order is not stable, and chunk boundaries must be
positionally stable across turns or every chunk key churns. Sorting by
id is also sorting chronologically, which is the order the LLM and the
reduce step obsRange labels should see anyway.

KV.summaryChunks is introduced here, so this owns its reclamation:
whole-session delete, stale-session and per-observation eviction, and a
prune of dead keys on every run.

Thanks — the fingerprint finding was correct and I've pushed a fix. Summary of what I did with each point:

Fingerprint completeness — fixed. This was worse than described. buildSummaryPrompt renders six fields (type, title, narrative, facts, files, plus identity); the hash covered id, title, and narrative.length. So type, facts and files were not merely length-approximated, they were unhashed entirely — any change to them false-skipped at both the session and chunk level.

hashObservationSet now hashes exactly what the prompt renders, length-prefixed so ["a","bc"] and ["ab","c"] don't collide. concepts stays out on purpose: buildSummaryPrompt declares it but the template never renders it, so hashing it would force re-summarization that cannot change the output. There's a comment on the function naming src/prompts/summary.ts as the contract to keep in sync.

Two tests added — a facts-only change and a files-only change, both with id, title and narrative byte-identical. I verified both fail against the previous hash and pass against the new one.

I did not switch to fingerprintId(); this needs incremental createHash().update() per observation to avoid materializing a multi-megabyte string per turn on the largest sessions, which is on the Stop-hook hot path.

Parallel deletes in summarize.ts — applied. Both the prune loop and deleteSummaryChunks now use Promise.all. These are bounded by chunk count for a single session, so the fan-out is small.

Parallel cleanup in evict.ts — declined, with a comment explaining why. That loop is different in kind: it fans out across every session an eviction pass touched, which can be hundreds, each doing its own kv.list plus deletes. Unbounded concurrency of that size against the file_based KV adapter is the failure mode described in #1127, and every one of those calls inherits the 180s worker-level invocationTimeoutMs (#1128). The linear wait is the better trade until per-call KV timeouts land. Left sequential with a comment recording the reasoning.

Explanatory comments — trimmed. Fair, and I'd overshot badly: comments were 56% of added source lines against a ~9% baseline in this file. Now at 29%, with the remainder limited to non-obvious invariants — why observations are sorted before chunk slicing, why the cache owns its own reclamation, and the prompt/hash contract above.

Also squashed the branch from eight commits to two.

The remember.ts finding was correct, and chasing it turned up two more instances of the same gap. Pushed as 18238f3.

Missed reclamation paths — fixed, three of them. Any path that deletes observations while leaving the session alive has to reclaim the chunk cache, because removing one observation shifts every downstream chunk boundary. Three did not:

  • remember.ts — explicit-ids mem::forget. The session survives, so it never reaches the whole-session branch that already reclaims.
  • export-import.ts — replace-strategy import. Wipes the session rows the cache is keyed against, so nothing afterwards can find those entries to reclaim.
  • auto-forget.ts — hourly low-value observation deletion. Same shape as the eviction paths, and the most costly of the three because it recurs.

A test per path, each verified to fail before the fix. Full suite 1728 pass / 1 skip; tsc unchanged at the 30 pre-existing errors.

The PR description already listed explicit-ids mem::forget as a reclamation site, so that was a description/behaviour mismatch on my side rather than a difference of opinion. Thanks for catching it.

fingerprintId() — still declining, same reason as before. Its signature is fingerprintId(prefix: string, content: string): it takes one complete string. Both fingerprints here hash incrementally via createHash().update() per observation precisely so the full serialized content is never materialized — the largest session in the corpus I tested against is ~28.8k observations, which is several megabytes per call on a path that runs every assistant turn. Adopting fingerprintId() would mean building that string to hash it once and discard it. The prefixes (sfp_, chk_) and the 16-hex-char truncation already match its output format, so the keys are indistinguishable from fingerprintId()-produced ones; only the construction differs.

Happy to switch if there's a repo convention I'm missing that outweighs the allocation.

Coordinate summary-cache invalidation with the per-session summarizer.

mem::summarize uses withKeyedLock("mem:summarize:${sessionId}"), but deleteSummaryChunks does not use that lock. During an in-flight provider call, the cleanup paths can delete current entries before mem::summarize writes stale chunks and KV.summaries data. This applies to all four listed paths. Use the same session lock or a generation check for cleanup and summarization, then add overlap coverage.
