What problem does it solve?
Managing complex, multi-stage software development can lead to losing track of progress, especially after breaks. This skill ensures seamless continuity by locating and interpreting handoff files, presenting a clear summary of your last session, and routing you directly to the next logical step in your workflow.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Intelligent Handoff Location: Automatically finds your
.continue-here.md files across multiple possible locations for any plugin, providing disambiguation if necessary.
- Contextual Summary: Parses YAML metadata and Markdown body to provide a human-readable overview of your stage, status, completed work, and next steps, including "time-ago" calculations.
- Smart Workflow Routing: Delegates to the appropriate continuation skill (e.g.,
plugin-workflow, plugin-ideation, ui-mockup) with all necessary context loaded, based on the identified stage.
- Error Recovery: Gracefully handles missing, corrupted, or stale handoff files, offering reconstruction options from Git history to prevent data loss.
- Use Case: Return to your 'FilterFX' plugin after a week's break. Instead of manually figuring out where you were, simply type
/continue FilterFX, and the AI will tell you, "Resuming FilterFX at Stage 2 (Audio Engine Working)... Last session: 7 days ago. Next: Implement filtering algorithm."
