/aiagentminder:handoff - Session Checkpoint
Capture current state so work can be resumed cleanly. Run this before ending a session.
Steps
1. Assess Current State
Review what happened this session:
- What files were created or modified?
- What was the goal and how far did we get?
- Any decisions made that should be in DECISIONS.md?
- Is there an active sprint? Check if SPRINT.md contains
**Status:** in-progress. If so, note which issue was active and the done/in-progress/todo/blocked counts.
2. Update DECISIONS.md (if applicable)
If any of these happened this session, add an ADR entry:
- Chose a library, framework, or tool
- Designed an API or data contract
- Selected an auth approach
- Changed a data model
- Made a build/deploy decision
- Implemented a known workaround (also add a row to the
## Known Debtsection)
Use the format already established in DECISIONS.md. Always include alternatives considered and the tradeoff accepted — a decision without alternatives is an assertion, not a record.
3. Write 2-3 Priority Items to Auto-Memory
Locate the project's auto-memory file at:
~/.claude/projects/[project-path-hash]/memory/MEMORY.md
Append or update a "Next Session" section:
## Next Session
- [Most important thing to know picking up next — be specific, not vague]
- [Second priority or open question]
- [Third item only if genuinely needed]
Keep each bullet to one sentence. Do not exceed 3 items. Specificity matters: "Continue API work" is not useful; "Implement POST /users/:id — GET is done, need POST with request validation" is.
4. Commit
git add DECISIONS.md
git commit -m "handoff: session checkpoint [today's date]"
Only stage files that were modified. Do NOT modify SPRINT.md during handoff — sprint state is updated during sprint execution.
5. Print the Briefing
Session handoff complete.
This session:
- [what was accomplished — specific files/features/fixes]
State of things:
- [what's working, what's not, what's in progress]
[if sprint active:]
Sprint [n]: [done]/[total] issues done[, [blocked] blocked]
Currently on: S[n]-[seq] — [issue title]
Next session should:
1. [specific first action]
2. [specific second action]
Blockers for human:
- [anything requiring human action, or "None"]
