AI agents lose context across sessions. Each new context window starts fresh, creating a "shift change" problem where continuity is lost. This is a lightweight session continuity plugin (agent skill) to handle agent "shift changes" for long-running tasks.

v0.1.0 is optimised for Claude Opus 4.5. It codifies the patterns and practices from Anthropic's engineering article: Effective Harnesses for Long-Running Agents. Key features:

  • Progress Documentation: Maintain claude-progress.md files documenting work history
  • Feature List Strategy: Track testable features in structured JSON format
  • Session Startup Protocol: Consistent initialization steps for each new session
  • Context-Efficient Scripts: Load only recent sessions (~78% context reduction)
  • Session Hooks: Auto-remind Claude to invoke the skill on startup
