SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the frustration of lost context when switching between AI coding agents, removing the need to re-explain prior work, decisions, and unfinished tasks every time you change tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Session Detection: Automatically finds your most recent relevant Entire session scoped to your current worktree, or supports handoff from a specific checkpoint ID.
  • Structured Context Summaries: Extracts key details from session transcripts including completed work, pending tasks, technical discoveries, and any unanswered questions from the previous agent.
  • Cross-Agent Compatibility: Works with all major coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, etc.) and handles both active session handoffs and multi-session checkpoint handoffs. Use Case: If you started a bug fix in Claude Code but need to switch to Codex to continue, this Skill generates a complete summary of your progress so you can pick up exactly where you left off without repeating context.

Quick Start

Ask your agent to hand off your current Entire session to continue your work in a different coding agent.

FAQPage Schema
How do I transfer AI coding agent context without losing progress?

To transfer coding agent context without losing progress, you generate structured handoff summaries from session transcripts containing completed work, pending tasks, and unanswered questions for the next agent.

Can I resume a coding session from a checkpoint with full prior context?

Yes, you can resume coding sessions from saved Entire checkpoints with full prior context by extracting task overviews and pending steps directly from the checkpoint data using the Entire CLI.

Does session handoff work with multiple AI coding agents like Claude Code and Codex?

Session handoff works with multiple AI coding agents including Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and Cursor, allowing you to switch tools mid-task by providing a complete summary of your progress.

What's the best way to summarize a coding session for a different agent?

The best way to summarize a coding session for a different agent is to automatically detect your most recent worktree session and extract key technical discoveries, pending tasks, and unanswered questions.

Do I need the Entire CLI to generate agent session summaries?

Yes, you need the Entire CLI version 0.6.2 or higher to access session lists, transcripts, and checkpoint data required to extract task overviews and generate agent session summaries.
