Pickup

/pickup

Purpose: rehydrate context quickly when you start work.

Read a handoff note first (preferred)

• If the user provides a handoff note path, read that file first.
• Else, attempt to locate the most recent handoff note under repo root:
  • If the work is tied to a dossier: <dossier>/tmp-handoffs/handoff_*.md
  • Otherwise (or if unsure): docs/04-projects/**/tmp-handoffs/handoff_*.md
  • Also check cross-dossier handoffs: docs/98-tmp/handoffs/handoff_*.md
• If no handoff note exists, continue with the standard pickup steps.

Pickup steps

1. Read AGENTS.MD pointer + relevant docs (run pnpm run docs:list if present).
2. Repo state: git status -sb; check for local commits; confirm current branch/PR.
3. CI/PR: gh pr view <num> --comments --files (or derive PR from branch) and note failing checks.
4. tmux/processes: list sessions and attach if needed:
   • tmux list-sessions
   • If sessions exist: tmux attach -t codex-shell or tmux capture-pane -p -J -t codex-shell:0.0 -S -200
5. Tests/checks: note what last ran (from handoff notes/CI) and what you will run first.
6. Plan next 2–3 actions as bullets and execute.

Output format

• Concise bullet summary.
• Include copy/paste tmux attach/capture commands when live sessions are present.

Notes

• Prefer starting new threads between workflows: run handoff, start a new thread, then run pickup.
• If the handoff note contradicts the current repo state, trust the repo state and call out the mismatch.
