About this Skill

Write a precise HANDOFF.md covering the goal, current state, files, failed attempts, best theory, and next steps.

Why we picked it

A reusable workflow from the Claude-Mem project. It is listed separately to explain this task; shared runtime and helper dependencies remain part of the upstream installation. The inherited gallery demonstrates the memory system, not this task’s specific output.

What it helps with

  • Resume a long or interrupted coding task in a fresh agent session.

How the workflow runs

  1. Step 1

    Recover the actual goal, working and broken behavior, and important constraints.

  2. Step 2

    Record exact files and failed approaches with their causes.

  3. Step 3

    Write ordered next steps and optional memory pointers into HANDOFF.md.

Original handoff instructions

Expected result

A scratch HANDOFF.md a fresh session can read to continue the task.

Try a concrete request

  1. Example request

    After installing the required integration, ask your agent:

    Create a handoff for this unfinished feature so a new session can continue without repeating failed attempts.

Before you use it

  • Access to the current task history and relevant project files. Memory pointers are optional when Claude-Mem tools are available.
  • Use the original upstream files and follow the documented host integration. Model or third-party service usage can carry separate costs.
