Path to .cast file (or auto-detect)
--finalize
Include finalize step (stop processes, compress)
-q, --quick
Quick analysis (keyword grep + brief summary)
-f, --full

Workflow Modes
Quick Mode (-q )
[file] → convert → keyword grep → brief summary
Full Mode (-f )
[file] → convert → AI summarize (iterative deep-dive)
Complete Mode (--finalize --full )
stop processes → compress → push → convert → AI summarize
Execution
Phase 1: Discovery
AskUserQuestion: question: "What would you like to do?" header: "Workflow" options: - label: "Quick analysis (Recommended)" description: "Convert + keyword search + brief summary" - label: "Full AI analysis" description: "Convert + iterative AI deep-dive with guidance" - label: "Complete workflow" description: "Finalize orphans + convert + AI summarize" - label: "Finalize only" description: "Stop processes and push to orphan branch"
Phase 2: File Selection
If no file specified, discover available recordings:
/usr/bin/env bash << 'DISCOVER_EOF' echo "=== Running asciinema processes ===" ps aux | grep -E "asciinema rec" | grep -v grep | while read -r line; do PID=$(echo "$line" | awk '{print $2}') CAST=$(echo "$line" | grep -oE '[^ ]+.cast' | head -1) if [[ -n "$CAST" ]]; then SIZE=$(ls -lh "$CAST" 2>/dev/null | awk '{print $5}' || echo "?") echo " [RUNNING] PID $PID: $CAST ($SIZE)" fi done
echo "" echo "=== Recent .cast files ===" find ~/eon -name "*.cast" -size +1M -mtime -7 2>/dev/null | while read -r f; do SIZE=$(ls -lh "$f" | awk '{print $5}') MTIME=$(stat -f "%Sm" -t "%m-%d %H:%M" "$f" 2>/dev/null) echo " $f ($SIZE, $MTIME)" done | head -10
echo "" echo "=== Recent .txt files (already converted) ===" find ~/eon -name "*.txt" -size +100M -mtime -7 2>/dev/null | while read -r f; do SIZE=$(ls -lh "$f" | awk '{print $5}') echo " $f ($SIZE)" done | head -5 DISCOVER_EOF
AskUserQuestion: question: "Which recording to analyze?" header: "Select" options: # Dynamically populated from discovery - label: "{filename} ({size})" description: "{path}"
Phase 3: Finalize (if selected)
Chain to /asciinema-tools:finalize :
-
Stop running asciinema processes
-
Verify file integrity
-
Compress with zstd
-
Push to orphan branch
Phase 4: Convert
/usr/bin/env bash << 'CONVERT_EOF' CAST_FILE="$1" TXT_FILE="${CAST_FILE%.cast}.txt"
echo "Converting: $CAST_FILE" echo "Output: $TXT_FILE"
if asciinema convert -f txt "$CAST_FILE" "$TXT_FILE"; then ORIG=$(ls -lh "$CAST_FILE" | awk '{print $5}') CONV=$(ls -lh "$TXT_FILE" | awk '{print $5}') echo "✓ Converted: $ORIG → $CONV" else echo "✗ Conversion failed" exit 1 fi CONVERT_EOF
Phase 5: Analysis
Quick mode: Keyword grep + brief summary
Run curated keyword searches
grep -c -i "error|fail|exception" "$TXT_FILE" grep -c -i "success|complete|done" "$TXT_FILE" grep -c -i "sharpe|drawdown|backtest" "$TXT_FILE"
... summarize counts
Full mode: Chain to /asciinema-tools:summarize
-
Initial guidance via AskUserQuestion
-
Strategic sampling (head/middle/tail)
-
Iterative deep-dive with user guidance
-
Synthesis into findings report
Phase 6: Output
AskUserQuestion: question: "Analysis complete. What next?" header: "Output" options: - label: "Display summary" description: "Show findings in terminal" - label: "Save to markdown" description: "Write findings to {filename}_findings.md" - label: "Continue exploring" description: "Deep-dive into specific sections" - label: "Done" description: "Exit workflow"

Troubleshooting
Issue Cause Solution
No recordings found No .cast files in ~/eon Check recording directory with find ~/eon
File discovery empty Wrong search path Manually specify file path as argument
Convert fails Corrupted .cast file Run /asciinema-tools:finalize first
AI summarize timeout Recording too large Use -q for quick analysis first
Orphan branch push fails Git authentication issue Check GitHub token with echo $GH_TOKEN
