resume-from-handoff

To transfer context between agents, you load and validate a saved handoff markdown file. This process extracts key context, verifies referenced primary files, and preserves decisions to enable autonomous continuation of work.

Agent workflow handoff continuation is the process of resuming a project by loading a saved markdown file containing prior context and decisions. You need it in multi-agent workflows when transferring projects between agents requires careful verification.

Yes, handoff markdown verification checks file existence and state alignment before resuming work. This careful verification against primary referenced files ensures continuity and preserves context before any edits are made.

You summarize context into an execution brief by parsing a handoff markdown file to surface artifacts, primary files, and decisions. The resulting compact brief enables autonomous continuation of the work.

The best way to load and validate a handoff markdown is to provide the file path in the workspace so the agent can extract key context, verify referenced files, and summarize the state into an execution brief for autonomous continuation.
