FAQPage Schema
How do I automate end-of-session handoffs and update a tracker file?

Automating end-of-session handoffs generates a canonical HANDOFF-S{N}.md artifact, updates root TRACKER.md with metrics, and commits the state. It captures session outcomes, propagates continuity, and re-checks playtest innovations to prepare the next session.

What is an end-of-session handoff ritual for workflow automation?

An end-of-session handoff ritual resets workflow state by writing deterministic artifacts. It ensures no session ends without capturing outcomes, updating the root TRACKER.md with metrics, and re-running innovation threshold checks before committing.

How do I reset state and propagate party continuity after a playtest session?

Resetting state and propagating party continuity after a playtest requires generating a HANDOFF-S{N}.md file and updating the root TRACKER.md. This deterministic process captures session outcomes and re-checks playtest innovations to prepare the next session.

Do I need any external dependencies to generate handoff artifacts and update trackers?

You do not need external dependencies to generate handoff artifacts and update trackers. The automation operates independently to write the HANDOFF-S{N}.md file, update the root TRACKER.md, and produce a commit-ready state without relying on external components.

What's the best way to ensure no session ends without updating the tracker and re-checking innovations?

The best way to ensure no session ends without updating the tracker is enforcing an end-of-session handoff ritual. This pipeline stage generates deterministic artifacts, updates root TRACKER.md with metrics, and re-runs innovation threshold checks before committing.

Why does my session tracker need a handoff artifact for playtest continuity?

Your session tracker needs a handoff artifact to propagate continuity and re-check playtest innovations. The HANDOFF-S{N}.md file captures session outcomes and updates the root TRACKER.md, ensuring the next session begins with a deterministic, commit-ready state.
