What problem does it solve? Interrupted or paused agent work often loses context between sessions, forcing users to re-explain tasks or leaving repositories in an unknown state. This Skill maintains a project-root RESUME.md handoff file that captures unfinished work so any agent can resume it without prior chat history. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Startup Blocking Check: Before any repository work begins, the agent checks for RESUME.md, treats it as blocking unfinished work, and resolves it before starting unrelated tasks. - Structured Handoff Format: Enforces a fixed RESUME.md template covering status, original task, completed work, remaining steps, files, verification, and notes for the next agent. - Lifecycle Rules: Defines when to create, update, and remove RESUME.md, keeps it out of git commits, and registers the protocol in AGENTS.md and .gitignore during setup. - Use Case: An agent runs out of context mid-refactor. It writes RESUME.md listing changed files, failing tests, and next steps. In a new session, the user says "resume" and the next agent continues exactly where work stopped. ## Quick Start Say "resume" or "continue" at the start of a session to have the agent read RESUME.md and pick up the interrupted repository work.
