# Total Recall - Context Preservation for Claude Code
## Quick Start
When you need to preserve session context before `/reset` or `/compact`:
```bash
# Save current session context
/total-recall
```
This creates a memory dump at `/tmp/total-recall` containing:
- Current work state and project context
- Key decisions and rationale
- Generated files and artifacts with paths
- Next steps and action items
- Important technical notes and constraints
## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- Approaching token limits (`Context left until auto-compact: 0%`)
- Need to `/reset` but can't afford to lose state
- Switching between multiple complex tasks
- Building up conversation history debt
- Working on multi-step tasks with critical state
