How do I resume a workflow from a saved file?

To resume your work, use the command /cc:resume followed by the specific filename of the checkpoint (e.g., /cc:resume 2025-11-20-auth-execution.md).

What information is captured in a state save?

Saves include Git commit hashes, branch names, current task status, research summaries from subagents, and implementation patterns discovered during the workflow.

Where are the state files stored?

The state files are stored within the Serena MCP memory system, which provides a persistent storage layer that Claude can access across different sessions.

How do I manually save my current progress?

You can trigger a manual checkpoint at any time by using the /cc:save command. The skill will automatically detect if you are in the planning or execution stage.

Productivity & Workflow

Saves and resumes Claude Code workflow states across research, planning, and execution phases using Serena MCP memory.

The State Persistence skill provides a robust mechanism for maintaining continuity during complex software development tasks. By integrating with Serena MCP, it captures granular checkpoints at every stage of the development lifecycle—from initial research and design planning to active execution and final completion. The skill automatically detects the current project phase, collects relevant Git metadata, and generates structured Markdown files that document progress. This allows developers to safely pause work and resume exactly where they left off using the /cc:resume command, ensuring that valuable context and task progress are never lost during session transitions.
