session-handoff skill

by rohitg00·rohitg00/pro-workflow·2.9k stars

Generate a structured handoff document capturing current progress, open tasks, key decisions, and context needed to resume work. Use when ending a session, saying "continue later", "save progress", "session summary", or "pick up where I left off".

Install the session-handoff skill

A skill is a folder. Copy it into your agent's skills folder and the agent loads it when the task matches its description. 

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/rohitg00/pro-workflow.git /tmp/pro-workflow
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/pro-workflow/skills/session-handoff ~/.claude/skills/session-handoff
available in every project

In the Claude apps, zip the folder and upload it from the Skills settings. The folder on GitHub

Session Handoff

Different from wrap-up. Wrap-up is a checklist for you. Handoff is a document written for the next session.

Trigger

Use when saying "handoff", "continue later", "pass to next session", "session transfer", or ending a session and wanting to resume smoothly.

Workflow

  1. Gather current state from git.
  2. List completed, in-progress, and pending work.
  3. Note key decisions made and their reasoning.
  4. Capture any learnings from this session.
  5. Generate a resume command for the next session.

Commands

git status
git diff --stat
git log --oneline -5
git branch --show-current

Output

# Session Handoff — [date] [time]

## Status
- **Branch**: feature/xyz
- **Commits this session**: 3
- **Uncommitted changes**: 2 files modified
- **Tests**: passing / failing / not run

## What's Done
- [completed task 1]
- [completed task 2]

## What's In Progress
- [current task with context on where you stopped]
- [file:line that needs attention next]

## What's Pending
- [next task that hasn't been started]
- [blocked items with reason]

## Key Decisions Made
- [decision 1 and why]
- [decision 2 and why]

## Learnings Captured
- [Category] Rule (from this session)

## Files Touched
- `path/to/file1.ts` — [what changed]
- `path/to/file2.ts` — [what changed]

## Gotchas for Next Session
- [thing that tripped you up]
- [non-obvious behavior discovered]

## Resume Command
> Continue working on [branch]. [1-2 sentence context]. Next step: [specific action].

Guardrails

  • Write for the reader (next session), not the writer.
  • Include specific file paths and line numbers where relevant.
  • The resume command should be copy-pasteable into the next session.
  • Keep it factual — describe changes functionally, don't infer motivation.

  • Aagent-teamsCoordinate multiple Claude Code sessions as a team — lead + teammates with shared task lists, mailbox messaging, and file-lock claiming. Patterns for team sizing, task decomposition, and when to use teams vs sub-agents vs worktrees.
  • Aauto-setupAuto-configure quality gates, hooks, and settings for a new project. Detects project type and sets up appropriate tooling. Use when onboarding a new codebase.
  • Abatch-orchestrationDecompose large-scale changes into independent units and spawn parallel agents in isolated worktrees. Use for migrations, refactors, codemods, and any change touching 10+ files with the same pattern.
  • Cbug-captureCapture a user-reported defect as a durable GitHub issue written in the project's own domain language. Explores the codebase in parallel for context but never leaks file paths or line numbers into the issue. Use when the user reports a bug conversationally, runs a QA pass, or says "file an issue", "log this as a bug", "capture this".
  • Acompact-guardSmart context compaction with state preservation. Saves critical files, task progress, and working state before compaction, restores after. Use before manual compact or when auto-compact triggers.
  • Acontext-engineeringMaster the four operations of context engineering — Write, Select, Compress, Isolate. Manage token budgets, compaction strategies, and context partitioning to keep AI sessions sharp and efficient.
  • Acontext-optimizerOptimize token usage and context management. Use when sessions feel slow, context is degraded, or you're running out of budget.
  • Acost-trackerTrack session costs, set budget alerts, and optimize token spend. Use to check costs mid-session or set spending limits.
  • Adesign-engineeringApply interface craft when building or reviewing UI - motion, easing, timing, springs, component feel, and visual foundations. Use when building a component, animation, transition, hover or press state, modal, drawer, toast, or when polishing an interface so it feels right. Says "make this feel better", "add an animation", "polish the UI", "review this component".
  • AdeslopRemove AI-generated code slop, unnecessary comments, and over-engineering from the current branch diff. Cleans up boilerplate, simplifies abstractions, strips defensive code, and in skill-file mode lints SKILL.md files for quality. Use when cleaning up code, simplifying, removing boilerplate, before committing, or when reviewing a skill before promoting it.
  • Adomain-modelingBuild the project's shared language and bounded contexts before writing code, so names stay consistent and the agent stops paraphrasing domain concepts. Produces a CONTEXT.md glossary and decision records. Use at the start of a project or feature, or when the codebase and the people describing it speak different languages.
  • Afile-watcherConfigure file watching hooks to auto-react to config changes, env file updates, and dependency modifications. Use to set up reactive workflows.
