SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When working across multiple sessions with an AI coding agent, context about decisions made, current git state, and unfinished work is lost between sessions. This Skill saves that working context so any future session can resume without losing progress. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Context Capture: Records git branch state, decisions made, and remaining work items into a persistent session record. - Session Resumption Pairing: Works together with the context-restore skill so a later session can pick up exactly where the previous one stopped. - Use Case: Before ending a long coding session on a feature branch, invoke the skill to snapshot your progress; the next day, restore the context and continue without re-explaining the task. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to save progress or save the current working context before ending the session.

Frequently Asked Questions about context-save

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I save my work progress between AI coding sessions?▼

Invoke the context-save skill with a phrase like "save progress" or "save my work". It captures the current git branch state, decisions made, and remaining tasks so a future session can resume with full context.

How do I resume work after saving context?▼

Use the paired context-restore skill in a new session. It reads the saved session record written by context-save and reloads the git state, decisions, and outstanding work items.

Does context-save require a git repository?▼

The skill captures git branch state as part of the saved context, so it is designed for use inside a git repository. It detects the current branch and falls back to an "unknown" branch label when git information is unavailable.

Where does context-save store the saved session data?▼

Session state is written under the user's home directory in the ~/.gstack/sessions path, with session files tracked and cleaned up automatically after a two-hour activity window.

Why was the checkpoint command renamed to context-save?▼

The skill was formerly called /checkpoint but was renamed because Claude Code treats /checkpoint as a native rewind alias in current environments, which shadowed the skill and prevented it from being invoked.
