What problem does it solve?
When you switch branches, end a session, or take a break, it is easy to lose track of what you were working on, what decisions you made, and what tasks are left. This Skill eliminates that context loss by capturing your full working state so you can pick up exactly where you left off with no manual note-taking required.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Full State Capture: Saves your current git branch, uncommitted changes, recent commit history, work context, decisions made, and remaining tasks in one place.
- Cross-Session Resumption: Resume work exactly where you left off even if you switch branches, use a different workspace, or return days later.
- Proactive Suggestions: Automatically prompts you to save a checkpoint when you are ending a session, switching context, or about to take a long break.
- Use Case: If you are mid-refactor of an authentication module and need to switch to a hotfix branch, run a checkpoint to save your progress. When you return to the refactor later, the checkpoint will remind you exactly what you changed, what decisions you made, and what steps are left.
Quick Start
Use the checkpoint skill to save your current work progress with a custom title so you can resume exactly where you left off later.
