PVRLabs Badger Code Review
Create .badger-handoff in the current working directory, or another workspace
directory explicitly selected by the user. Do not discover a Git root.
Summarize the current conversation briefly with strong recency bias. Include the user's request, what was just implemented, recent decisions and constraints, verification already performed, and reviewer attention points.
Always write this exact UTF-8 framing:
BADGER-HANDOFF-V1
mode: review
<compact review guidance>
Keep the complete file at or below 65,536 bytes. The body is conversation state only: do not inspect or include repository files, diffs, Git state, or topology. Badger collects review context itself.
After writing successfully, derive the absolute directory from the written file path and print exactly:
Badger handoff prepared.
In a separate terminal, run:
cd '/absolute/path/to/the-written-directory'
badger continue
Substitute the actual POSIX-shell-quoted directory. Do not invoke Badger or use another transport.
