resume-handoff

To resume work from a handoff document, this skill extracts tasks, learnings, and action items, then validates them against the current repository state by diffing files and reading referenced artifacts to surface status and risks.

Validating repository changes against a handoff document involves diffing files and reading linked artifacts to surface remaining work and risks, ensuring the proposed next actions align with the actual project state before user confirmation.

Extracting tasks and action items from a handoff document is done by reading the provided file to pull out statuses, learnings, and artifacts, which are then structured into a concrete plan of next actions for continuation.

The handoff resumption process does not apply changes automatically; it proposes a structured plan of next actions and requires explicit user confirmation before applying any modifications to the repository.

You can surface project risks when resuming work by validating the handoff document items against current repository changes and reading referenced artifacts to identify discrepancies and potential issues.

You need to use a handoff document to resume project work when you must extract previous context and learnings, align them with the current repository state, and generate a validated plan of next actions for continuation.
