SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Resume work from a saved checkpoint by detecting the current branch, loading the checkpoint file, and restoring the prior Codex context to continue where you left off.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Checkpoint discovery: detects the active branch and locates the corresponding checkpoint.
  • Context restoration: rehydrates the previous workspace state and variables for seamless continuation.
  • Use Case: resume long-running coding sessions after interruptions or when switching tasks without losing progress.

Quick Start

Resume from the latest checkpoint by loading the saved context and continuing the workflow on the current branch.

Frequently Asked Questions about resume-checkpoint

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I resume a coding session after pausing work on a branch?

To resume a coding session, the Skill detects the active branch, loads the corresponding checkpoint file, and rehydrates the prior Codex context to seamlessly continue your workflow.

What is Codex context rehydration and how does it work?

Codex context rehydration reconstructs your previous workspace state and variables by reading a saved checkpoint file, ensuring seamless continuation of long-running development sessions without losing progress.

How do I restore ongoing work from a saved checkpoint?

Restoring ongoing work involves detecting the current branch and loading its specific checkpoint file to reconstruct the prior working state for immediate continuation.

Can I use checkpoint restoration to switch tasks without losing progress?

Yes, checkpoint restoration supports switching tasks by rehydrating the previous workspace state and variables, allowing you to resume long-running coding sessions after interruptions.

Do I need to specify the branch to load a development checkpoint?

No, the Skill features automatic branch detection to locate the corresponding checkpoint file, enabling you to resume work from the latest saved state without manual branch specification.

Why does my workflow checkpoint not restore the previous state?

Checkpoint restoration requires a valid checkpoint file on the detected branch; if the file is missing or corrupted, the Skill cannot rehydrate the prior Codex context to reconstruct the working state.
