Checkpoint Resume is a production-ready Claude Code skill (quality score 70/100) in the workflow-orchestration sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/checkpoint-resume/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when starting a complex multi-phase task that risks hitting rate limits, when resuming an interrupted session, or when orchestrating work spanning commits, GitHub issues, and large file changes.
The Checkpoint Resume skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It is part of the open ClaudSkills registry, a community-curated catalog of 15,000+ capabilities you can install for Claude Code — the Claude CLI agent.
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/checkpoint-resume curl -L https://claudskills.com/skills/checkpoint-resume/SKILL.md \ -o ~/.claude/skills/checkpoint-resume/SKILL.md
Or just download SKILL.md directly and drop it into ~/.claude/skills/checkpoint-resume/. Claude Code auto-discovers it on next session.
