Devlog

Devlog Workflow

Capture a development session as a dated HTML log.

Gather the session

Summarize what happened this session into the configured sections (default: Summary, Changes, Decisions, Next). Each section's content must be a fragment of valid HTML (e.g. ..., ...).

Build a JSON object:

{
  "title": "Short session title",
  "sections": [
    { "heading": "Summary", "html": "..." },
    { "heading": "Changes", "html": "..." }
  ]
}

Render

Pipe the JSON into the helper with today's date:

echo "$JSON" | node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/devlog-render.mjs" --date 

The helper writes /YYYY-MM-DD.html (sequencing -2, -3 on repeat calls the same day — it never overwrites) and rebuilds index.html.

Rules

• Use today's real date (never guess).
• Repeat calls the same day create new sequenced files; do not overwrite prior logs.
• Keep HTML fragments self-contained — no external scripts or stylesheets.
