What it does
Session Dream is an agent skill from simbajigege/book2skills. End-of-session memory distillation — extracts key decisions, eliminated approaches, new discoveries, and current blockers from the current conversation and writes them to MEMORY.md topic files. Based on Claude Code's autoDream background consolidation service. Activate when the user says "dream", "/dream", "save session memories", "distill this session", "what should I remember from this session", or when a long productive session is ending and the user wants to preserve what was learned.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `README.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Agent memory. The repository describes itself as: Create best skills based on best books.
When your agent uses it
- Save session memories
- Distill this session
- What should I remember from this session
- A long productive session is ending and the user wants to preserve what was learned
Example prompts
- “/dream”
- “save session memories”
- “distill this session”
- “/session-dream”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Orient
- Gather signal from this session
- Consolidate to memory files
- Prune and index
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e5ba66c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Session Dream loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 127 tokens; SKILL.md has 467 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Proprietary) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 467 words (~1,270 tokens).
“A manual trigger for the memory distillation that Claude Code's autoDream service does automatically in the background. Where autoDream fires after 5+ sessions and 24+ hours, this skill fires on demand — letting you capture a session's insights before they're…”
