What problem does it solve?
Preserves progress on a main task when the user interrupts with an unrelated topic, then resumes cleanly afterward.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Snapshot and save current task state when interruptions occur, including completed steps and partial progress.
- Resume the main task exactly where you left off once the side topic is resolved.
- Works across multi-step tasks like coding, planning, or research discussions, guided by cues such as "btw", "quick question", or unrelated topics.
Quick Start
Enable the side-topic protocol to snapshot and resume the main task when switching away to an unrelated topic.
