SpecStory Organize

Organizes your .specstory/history directory by moving session files into YYYY/MM/ subdirectories based on the timestamp in each filename.

How It Works

1. Scans .specstory/history/ for markdown files
2. Extracts the date from filenames (e.g., 2026-01-22_19-20-56Z-fix-bug.md)
3. Creates year/month folders (e.g., 2026/01/)
4. Moves files into the appropriate subdirectory
5. Reports what was moved

Why Organize?

Over time, your history directory can accumulate hundreds of session files. Organizing by date makes it easier to:

• Find sessions from a specific time period
• Archive old sessions
• Keep your project directory clean

Usage

Slash Command

Direct Script Usage

# From project root
python skills/specstory-organize/scripts/organize.py

# Preview what would be moved (no changes made)
python skills/specstory-organize/scripts/organize.py --dry-run

Output

SpecStory History Organizer
===========================

Found 47 files to organize in .specstory/history/

Moving files:
  2026-01-15_10-30-22Z-refactor-auth.md -> 2026/01/
  2026-01-15_14-22-01Z-fix-tests.md -> 2026/01/
  2026-01-22_19-20-56Z-add-feature.md -> 2026/01/
  2025-12-28_09-15-33Z-cleanup.md -> 2025/12/
  ...

Summary:
--------
Files moved: 47
  2026/01/: 23 files
  2025/12/: 18 files
  2025/11/: 6 files

Your history is now organized!

Dry Run Output

When using --dry-run:

SpecStory History Organizer (DRY RUN)
=====================================

Would organize 47 files in .specstory/history/

Preview:
  2026-01-15_10-30-22Z-refactor-auth.md -> 2026/01/
  2026-01-15_14-22-01Z-fix-tests.md -> 2026/01/
  ...

No files were moved. Run without --dry-run to apply changes.

Present Results to User

After running the organize script:

1. Confirm success - Tell the user how many files were organized
2. Show the breakdown - List how many files went to each month
3. Note any skips - If files couldn't be parsed (no date in filename), mention them

Example Response

Done! I organized 47 session files in your `.specstory/history/` directory:

- **2026/01/**: 23 files
- **2025/12/**: 18 files
- **2025/11/**: 6 files

Your history files are now sorted by year and month, making it much easier
to find sessions from specific time periods.

Notes

• Files without a recognizable date pattern in the filename are skipped
• The script uses the filename timestamp, not the file's modification time
• Already-organized files (in subdirectories) are not moved again
• Compatible with Python 2.7+ and Python 3.x
