⚖️ Decision Detection Free + Add-on
Always-on detection surfaces the decisions that matter. Detection is free for everyone. The add-on unlocks full details, rationale notes, and LLM refinement.
Always-on via git hook
Decisions are detected after every commit via a global git post-commit hook. No editor needs to be open. Install once with keepgoing hook install and every repo is covered.
Summary-text heuristic
Scores your checkpoint summary text for decision signals like architectural choices, migrations, and pivots. Git-diff patterns serve as an optional confidence boost.
LLM refinement (Pro)
Run keepgoing refine to improve classification with AI. Confirms, rejects, or discovers decisions the heuristic missed. Works with your own Anthropic API key or Claude CLI.
Auto-refinement (Pro)
Enable with keepgoing refine --enable to automatically refine every detected decision in the background. No manual step needed.
Decision cards in sidebar
Browse detected decisions in a dedicated VS Code panel with category badges and timestamps.
Rationale annotation
Add "why" notes to any detected decision. When you come back in three weeks, the reasoning is right there.
Category badges
Each decision is tagged with its category: infra, auth, migration, dependency, architecture, and more.

One calm view of everything running across your project.
Live task panel
A dedicated VS Code sidebar panel shows each session's current task, last file edited, and next planned step.
