Problem Statement

When resuming a session via the CLI prompt that offers "Use summary," there's no way to specify what to preserve—unlike the in-session /compact command which accepts focus instructions. This leads to risks of loading what is not wanted, and leaving out what is needed.

Proposed Solution

It would be great if the resume prompt's summary option let users add optional steering, like:

Use summary to resume?
Focus on (optional): [auth flow, recent errors, etc.]
