Can I search for previous session notes?

Yes, the skill includes a search functionality that allows you to query past handoffs by topic or keyword, making it easy to find when specific architectural decisions were made.

Is the handoff creation automatic?

The skill provides proactive triggers and reminders based on your activity, such as after three commits or when you use phrases like 'wrap up', but it can also be triggered manually using the /handoff command.

How does the Handoff Skill help with context limits?

It monitors your session's context usage and prompts you to create a structured handoff when you exceed 80% capacity, allowing you to start a fresh session without losing track of your progress.

Does it integrate with my Git workflow?

Absolutely. The handoff tool specifically tracks branch information and recent commits to ensure the AI understands the exact state of your repository when you resume work.
