/insights: facets not generated, most report sections empty

Resolved 💬 8 comments Opened Feb 7, 2026 by lzeng579 Closed Apr 13, 2026

Description

Running /insights generates a report where all qualitative/narrative sections show "No data" or are completely missing. Only the purely quantitative sections populate correctly.

Root cause

The ~/.claude/usage-data/facets/ directory was never created, suggesting the faceting/analysis pipeline either did not run or failed silently. The report template falls back to "No data" when faceted data is absent.

Sections working (quantitative, computed from session logs)

  • Stats row (messages, lines, files, days, msgs/day)
  • Top Tools Used
  • Languages
  • User Response Time Distribution
  • Multi-Clauding (Parallel Sessions)
  • User Messages by Time of Day
  • Tool Errors Encountered

Sections empty (require faceted/LLM analysis)

  • What You Wanted (chart)
  • Session Types (chart)
  • What Helped Most (chart)
  • Outcomes (chart)
  • Primary Friction Types (chart)
  • Inferred Satisfaction (chart)
  • At a Glance (narrative, missing entirely)
  • What You Work On / Project Areas (missing entirely)
  • Impressive Things / Big Wins (missing entirely)
  • Where Things Go Wrong / Friction Details (missing entirely)
  • Features to Try (missing entirely)
  • New Usage Patterns (missing entirely)
  • On the Horizon (missing entirely)
  • Team Feedback (missing entirely)

Environment

  • macOS Darwin 24.6.0 (arm64)
  • 203 sessions / 1,556 messages
  • Reporting period: 2026-01-10 to 2026-02-07
