+
+## Session Summary
+
+Short "where did we leave off" review of the two forum-related skills; ended before any work
+started (session lost to reboot at the prioritization question).
+
+- **ask-forum**: hardening pass complete as of commit `0a43892` — all code-review findings
+  addressed (pagination, error recovery, UTF-8 safety). Functionally complete and deployed.
+  Open items: Discord bot lacks *Manage Threads* permission (needs a grant from Mike) so it
+  cannot clean up threads; no restart-safety (cannot capture answers after the session that
+  asked the question closes).
+- **forum-post**: NOT a complete skill — has a script (`flarum-post.py`) and a command
+  definition but no `SKILL.md` / full skill structure.
+
+No uncommitted changes or pending coord todos for either skill.
+
+## Pending / Incomplete Tasks
+
+- Decide priority: finish `forum-post` as a full skill (add SKILL.md, structure) vs. add
+  ask-forum restart-safety.
+- Get *Manage Threads* permission granted to the Discord bot (Mike) for ask-forum thread
+  cleanup.
