FAQPage Schema
How do I preserve Codex project state across session boundaries?▼

To preserve Codex project state across session boundaries, you can use a session continuity harness that saves `PROGRESS.md` and `DECISIONS.md` files, defining start and exit routines to maintain long-running task integrity.

What is a handoff protocol for long-running agent tasks?▼

A handoff protocol for long-running agent tasks is a defined routine that documents transition points and validates state preservation, enabling consistent project state restoration when sessions end or fail.

How do I resume a failed Codex session without losing project information?▼

You resume a failed Codex session without losing project information by restoring previously saved `PROGRESS.md` and `DECISIONS.md` files through an enforced exit routine that ensures seamless state recovery.

Can I enforce start and exit routines for state preservation in my workflow?▼

Yes, you can enforce start and exit routines for state preservation by implementing a session continuity harness that coordinates advisory validation and cleaning scripts to maintain project completeness during active sessions.

Does the session continuity harness require any external dependencies to run?▼

No, the session continuity harness requires no external dependencies, relying solely on its internal scripts to coordinate handoff protocols, advisory validation, and state preservation across your Codex projects.
