Create Handoff

You are tasked with writing a handoff document to hand off your work to another agent in a new session. You will create a handoff document that is thorough, but also concise. The goal is to compact and summarize your context without losing any of the key details of what you're working on.

Process

1. Filepath & Metadata

Use the following information to understand how to create your document:

First, determine the session name from existing handoffs:

ls -td thoughts/shared/handoffs/*/ 2>/dev/null | head -1 | xargs basename

DO NOT use alternative field names like `session_goal`, `objective`, `focus`, `current`, etc. The statusline parser looks for EXACTLY `goal:` and `now:` - nothing else works.

3. Mark Session Outcome (REQUIRED)

4. Confirm completion
