v0.29.0 — Context Freshness Check Before Starting a Session
Context Freshness Check Before Starting a Session
Before handing a task to an agent, it helps to know how stale its last view of the codebase is. agent-strace freshness compares the current state against what the agent last saw, using git diff between the last session timestamp and HEAD.
agent-strace freshness
agent-strace freshness --since 2026-04-01 --scope "src/**"Report includes:
- Files changed since the last session (or since
--sincedate) - Per-file change type (modified / added / deleted / renamed) and line count
- Freshness score 0–100 (100 = nothing changed since last session)
- Estimated catch-up reading time for in-scope files
Scope is auto-detected from CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md scope sections, or overridden with --scope. No API calls required.
