# Handoffs System Introduction

The Handoffs System complements our Memory Bank by providing chronological documentation of development progress and enabling clean context transitions between LLM sessions.

## System Components

1. Sequential Handoff Documents
   - Capture daily development progress
   - Document specific work completed
   - Flag work-in-progress items
   - Note discoveries and solutions

2. Milestone Documents
   - Consolidate multiple handoffs
   - Summarize completed project phases
   - Document lessons learned
   - Store reusable patterns

## Usage Guidelines

### When to Create Handoffs
- After completing significant project segments
- When context becomes ~30% irrelevant
- After 10+ conversation exchanges
- During extended debugging sessions

### When to Create Milestones
- After major feature completion
- When 3-5 handoffs accumulate
- At stable/deployable states
- After solving critical problems

## Integration with Memory Bank

The Handoffs System complements our Memory Bank by:
1. Preserving chronological development history
2. Maintaining detailed context without loss
3. Enabling selective context loading
4. Providing clear project timeline
5. Facilitating clean context switches
