When This Skill Activates

Saving context for future sessions, session handoffs
Keywords: "preserve", "save context", "handoff", "session end", "continue later"
Default for: Starlight Orchestrator, Starlight Sage

What This Skill Does

Ensures no valuable context is lost between sessions. Captures decisions, progress, pending work, and relevant state into persistent storage that can be restored.

Procedures

Procedure 1: Session State Capture

Summarize what was accomplished this session
List all decisions made (with reasoning)
List all pending work (not yet started or incomplete)
Capture current blockers or questions
Note any important context that might not be obvious
Store as Session Note in notes/active/
Update Operational Vault with current state

Procedure 2: Context Restoration

Read most recent Session Note
Read Operational Vault for current state
Check Transmission channels for updates since last session
Reconstruct the working context
Identify what has changed since last session
Present restored context summary
Confirm with user before proceeding

Procedure 3: Knowledge Extraction

Before context is lost, scan for extractable knowledge:
- Decisions worth remembering → Strategic Vault
- Technical patterns discovered → Technical Vault
- Creative insights generated → Creative Vault
- Principles confirmed → Wisdom Vault
Extract and store each piece of knowledge
Link extracted entries to the session that produced them
Ensure nothing valuable is ephemeral

Integration Points

Vault: Operational Vault (state), all vaults (extracted knowledge)
Notes: Session Notes (handoff records)
Transmissions: Check for updates during restoration
Context: Updates unified-context.md

Quality Criteria

Can the next session fully resume from preserved context?
Was all extractable knowledge captured?
Is the session summary concise but complete?
Are pending items clearly actionable?
