What happens when the context window reaches its limit?

The skill monitors context usage; once it exceeds 80% of the window, it will trigger a mandatory handoff to ensure no critical information is lost before the session expires.

How do I resume work from a previously saved checkpoint?

You can use the /resume [filename] command to load the context from a specific checkpoint file, or simply paste the 'Resume Prompt' generated during the last handoff into a new session.

How do I manually trigger a context handoff?

You can trigger a handoff at any time by typing the /handoff command. You can also provide a specific goal, such as /handoff [goal], to focus the checkpoint on a particular task.

Where are my project checkpoints stored?

All session checkpoints are saved locally in your repository under the .handoff/checkpoints/ directory, using a timestamped naming convention for easy retrieval.

Manages seamless context transitions between AI sessions by creating structured checkpoints and ready-to-use resume prompts.

The Session Context Handoff skill is designed to solve the challenge of context window limitations and long-running development tasks. It automatically detects when a session is becoming overloaded or when a project phase is shifting, allowing you to capture critical architectural decisions, pending tasks, and modified files into a structured checkpoint. By generating a concise resume prompt for your next session, it ensures you can pick up exactly where you left off without losing important project state or momentum.
