Handover

Use this skill when the user wants a resume prompt for a future session.

This skill is the replacement for the old handover command.

Workflow

  1. Gather recent context first using recent-context-from-git
  2. Ensure there is a current _progress.md devlog if work is still in progress
  3. Identify the next task from plans, issues, or the conversation
  4. Produce a concise handover prompt with references

Keep the handover description to five sentences or fewer.

Use this output shape:

HANDOVER PROMPT

[Short description of current work and state]

Context:
- Devlog: thoughts/shared/devlog/YYYY-MM-DD_session_progress.md
- Plan: thoughts/shared/plans/YYYY-MM-DD_plan.md
- Spec: docs/specs/feature.md
- ADR: docs/decisions/YYYY-MM-DD_decision.md
- Issues: BD-042, #123

Next: [specific next task]

Writing Guidance

  • Prefer concrete references over general summaries
  • Persist context while it is fresh
  • Be honest about gaps, blockers, and deviations
  • Do not invent next steps that are not supported by docs or conversation context
