# Create a handoff

Capture the objective, resolved decisions, current state, evidence, remaining work, exact next action, and material risks. Write to the requested project-relative path or `handoff.md` by default, then compact the session context.

Keep the packet self-contained and never claim that incomplete work is finished.
