Find Handoff

Category: Content  ·  Sub-category: content-misc  ·  Last updated:
Recover a lost handoff after `/clear` — find the save-point file or resume prompt when the resume prompt was written but never copied and the fresh session has zero context. Read-only detection ladder: known-location glob of `<memory_dir>/handoffs/`, then a bounded, recency-ranked scan of transcripts (excluding the current session's own file) for the handoff directive and dashed-rail markers, then a confirm-before-resume gate. Use when: 'find my handoff', 'recover the handoff', 'I lost the resume prompt', 'forgot to copy the resume prompt', 'I cleared without saving the prompt', 'where's my handoff', 'recover after /clear', 'get back the handoff'. Surfaces only the resume prompt + handoff metadata, never raw transcript content; hands to `/session-flow:keep-going` when the recovered session ended mid-work rather than at a clean save-point.
