FAQPage Schema
How do I resume development work from a previous session using a handoff document?

To resume development work from a handoff document, provide a direct file path or ticket number. The skill locates the most recent handoff, reads linked research and plan documents, and synthesizes findings to validate the current codebase state before proceeding.

What is context continuity in AI agent workflows and when do I need it?

Context continuity in AI agent workflows prevents the loss of critical information across development sessions. You need it after taking a break to ensure the AI understands prior context, recent changes, and next steps without manual re-explanation.

Can I use a ticket number to find my most recent development handoff notes?

Yes, you can use a ticket number like ENG-1234 to automatically find and load your most recent handoff notes. The skill analyzes the ticket's task status, recent changes, and artifacts to seamlessly resume work.

How does agent routing work when resuming tasks from handoff documents?

Agent routing intelligently directs resumed development tasks to specialized agents based on the nature of the work. It requires thorough analysis of task status and artifacts from the handoff document to identify potential issues before routing.

Does the resume-handoff skill validate the current codebase against previous session notes?

Yes, the resume-handoff skill verifies the current codebase state against previous session notes. It analyzes linked research and plan documents to ensure continuity and synthesizes findings to identify potential issues before proceeding.
