close

/close — shut vjt-claude down cleanly

Mirror of /start. Run this before /exit when you're going to relaunch Claude Code from this dir later. Graceful: morph and the crew see a clean leave message instead of a hard timeout.

Skip this skill if you're leaving the session running — it's only needed when you're actually going to kill Claude Code.

What it does, in order

1. Final activity-log flush

• Read /home/vjt/code/IRC/vjt-claude/memory/project_activity_log.md (repo path — see CLAUDE.md Memory hygiene) and check today's heading.
• If meaningful events from this session aren't logged yet, append them now under today's heading. Apply the same filter as during the session (decisions / ships / plans / surprises — not banter).
• If today's heading is empty and nothing notable happened, that's fine — leave it as a placeholder. Don't invent content.

2. Graceful IRC quit with a contextual supercazzola

The QUIT message should nod at whatever the crew was just talking about. Mascetti register, one line, <200 chars, Italian, register-matched to the channel the last chatter was in (#olografix = lighter on blasphemy, elsewhere = Porco Dio fine).

Procedure:

1. Read the last ~30 lines of /home/vjt/code/IRC/vjt-claude/bot.log (tail -n 30). Extract the dominant topic/phrase from the most recent crew exchanges — what's on everyone's lips right this minute?
2. Craft a supercazzola QUIT message that fuses the topic with Mascetti-style verbal nonsense. Aim for: topic-nod + come se fosse antani / tarapìa tapìoco / scappellamento / prematurata construction + closing blasphemy if register allows.
3. Fire it:

   printf 'QUIT :<your supercazzola here>\n' > /home/vjt/code/IRC/vjt-claude/bot.send
   

Examples of the shape (don't use these verbatim — regenerate from actual current chatter):

• If crew was discussing lost BTC wallets: QUIT :come la tarapìa tapìoco del wallet perduto, scappellamento a destra del blocchetto genesi, alla prossima reboot. porco dio
• If crew was in #olografix talking tax: QUIT :antani dichiarativo con prematurata RW, come se fosse TUIR scappellato a destra. alla prossima
• If crew was laughing about Magnotta: QUIT :la lavatrice antani, quattrocentottantamilalire di prematurata, m'iscrivo al reboot!!

Wait ~2 seconds after firing for the QUIT to flush to the network before step 3 (otherwise Monitor may kill the bot mid-write and the QUIT message is lost).

If bot.log tail shows no recent chatter (channel dead), fall back to a pure-Mascetti QUIT without a topic nod: QUIT :come se fosse antani, la reboot con scappellamento a destra, alla prossima. porco dio.

3. Stop the Monitors

Use TaskStop on every monitor task — TaskList first, then stop the Azzurra and Libera event streams and the Telegram poller (tg_poll.sh). The poller especially: leaving it running after the session dies means the next session's getUpdates gets 409 Conflict.

The bot itself is a systemd user service now (vjt-claude-bot.service) and is not coupled to the Monitor. The FIFO-QUIT in step 2 makes the bot disconnect gracefully and exit; systemd then sees it as a normal stop. Do NOT systemctl --user stop as well — the FIFO QUIT has already done it, and stacking the two races the reconnect window. Same applies to the sidecars: leave them alone, they'll keep running until next reboot / next /start cycle.

4. Memory consistency check

Quick sanity pass to avoid starting the next session with half-written state:

• Read MEMORY.md and confirm every - [Title](file.md) pointer resolves — ls each file listed.
• For each memory file, confirm the frontmatter name/description/type is present and unbroken.
• If anything is inconsistent, fix it now. Do not leave corrupted state for the next session to stumble over.

5. Report

Print a one-liner like:

• vjt-claude closed. Bot QUIT sent, Monitor stopped, activity log has N bullets for today, MEMORY.md has M entries. Safe to /exit.

Then the user runs /exit.

What NOT to do

• Do NOT delete the memory dir or rename it. Its canonical path is ~/.claude/projects/-home-vjt-code-IRC-vjt-claude/ and must persist untouched between sessions.
• Do NOT pkill Claude Code itself — let the user /exit normally so the transcript gets saved to the jsonl archive.
• Do NOT promote transient chat into memory just because you're closing. Promotion rule still applies: only if it will matter >14 days.
