SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents losing momentum by capturing your current working state so you can pause and later continue with the same decisions, git context, and remaining work intact.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Progress snapshot: Records git state, key decisions, and what’s left to do so a later session can pick up without re-explaining everything.
  • Session continuity: Lets you “save state” mid-flow and reduce the risk of duplicated work or forgotten constraints.
  • Workflow pairing: Designed to work with the companion skill /context-restore to resume later from the saved snapshot.
  • Use case: After making a series of changes and resolving some choices, save your progress, switch tasks, and later restore to continue the remaining checklist items.
