Context Handoff

This skill loads handoff content from a previous session that reached the context threshold.

Instructions

When this skill is invoked:

Check for structured state at .claude/claudikins-acm/handoff-state.json
Read the handoff markdown at .claude/claudikins-acm/handoff.md
Present both to understand what was being worked on
Restore todos if active todos exist in the state
Continue the work from where it was left off

File Locations

File	Purpose
`.claude/claudikins-acm/handoff-state.json`	Structured state (preferred)
`.claude/claudikins-acm/handoff.md`	Human-readable summary

Reading the State

The structured state JSON contains:

context.current_objective - What was being worked on
context.active_todos - Pending/in-progress todos to restore
context.key_files_modified - Recently changed files
git.branch - Git branch at handoff time
git.modified_files - Uncommitted changes

After Reading

Restore todos using TodoWrite if active_todos has entries
Summarise the previous session's state for the user
Ask if they want to continue from where they left off
Clean up the handoff files after successful restoration

Cleanup

After successfully restoring context, offer to clean up:

rm -f .claude/claudikins-acm/handoff-state.json
rm -f .claude/claudikins-acm/handoff.md

If No Handoff Exists

If neither file exists, inform the user:

No handoff is currently active
A handoff is created when context usage hits the threshold (default 60%)
They can configure the threshold via /acm:config

Claudikins Automatic Context Manager To configure settings, use: /acm:config
