SKILL.md

<objective> Create .continue-here.md handoff file to preserve complete work state across sessions.

Routes to the pause-work workflow which handles:

  • Current phase detection from recent files
  • Complete state gathering (position, completed work, remaining work, decisions, blockers)
  • Handoff file creation with all context sections
  • Git commit as WIP
  • Resume instructions

</objective>

<executioncontext> @~/.claude/gsd-core/workflows/pause-work.md </executioncontext>

<context> State and phase progress are gathered in-workflow with targeted reads. </context>

<process> If --report is in $ARGUMENTS: Read and execute ~/.claude/gsd-core/workflows/session-report.md end-to-end.

Follow the pause-work workflow.

The workflow handles all logic including:

  1. Phase directory detection
  2. State gathering with user clarifications
  3. Handoff file writing with timestamp
  4. Git commit
  5. Confirmation with resume instructions

</process>
