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
