## Total Changes

**20 message strings updated** across **11 files**

## Patterns Preserved

The following patterns were intentionally **NOT changed**:

1. **Ellipses ("...")** - Indicate ongoing actions (e.g., `"Executing compaction..."`)
1. **Sentence construction** - Periods used to join sentences (e.g., `". ".join(sentences) + "."`)
1. **Multi-sentence messages** - Messages with multiple sentences and internal punctuation
1. **Docstrings** - All docstrings retained their original formatting

## Verification

```bash
grep -rn 'return.*[❌✅🏓].*\."$' session_buddy --include="*.py" | wc -l
# Output: 0 ✅
```

## Rationale

- **Cleaner output** - Modern CLI tools omit periods for single-line status messages
- **Consistency** - Aligns with contemporary UX patterns
- **Better readability** - Status icons provide visual closure without periods
