 **Session Logger (session_logger.py):**
 - `open_session()` called once at GUI startup; creates `logs/` and `scripts/generated/` directories; opens `logs/comms_<ts>.log` and `logs/toolcalls_<ts>.log` (line-buffered)
 - `log_comms(entry)` appends each comms entry as a JSON-L line to the comms log; called from `App._on_comms_entry` (background thread); thread-safe via GIL + line buffering
-- `log_tool_call(script, result, script_path)` appends a markdown-formatted tool-call record to the toolcalls log and writes the script to `scripts/generated/<ts>_<seq:04d>.ps1`; uses a `threading.Lock` for the sequence counter
+- `log_tool_call(script, result, script_path)` writes the script to `scripts/generated/<ts>_<seq:04d>.ps1` and appends a markdown record to the toolcalls log **without** the script body (just the file path + result), keeping the log readable; uses a `threading.Lock` for the sequence counter
 - `close_session()` flushes and closes both file handles; called just before `dpg.destroy_context()`
 - `_on_tool_log` in `App` is wired to `ai_client.tool_log_callback` and calls `session_logger.log_tool_call`
