What it does
A handoff file, a goal contract and one line to paste, so a fresh session continues the task with nothing re-explained.
Who uses it
What you need
You bring:
- the session about to end
- the status file, if one exists
How it works5
The steps, in order. The method itself is served whole through the connector, current on every use.
- 1
Scan the session for state and decisions
- 2
Write the handoff with the first action on top
- 3
Forge the goal contract
- 4
Print the one-line kickoff
- 5
Verify both files and their paths
What it doesn't do
- Planning the work itself; it captures state and hands it over
- Sessions with no single next action to name
When your AI reaches for it
One command to survive a session restart with zero re-explaining. Use when the operator says "/session-restart", "restarting session", "make sure all context survives", "do a handoff before a restart", "write a handoff for a new session" — or when THIS session's context is running low mid-task. Produces the handoff file, the goal contract, and the ONE line to paste into the new session.
