End session, save progress, create handoff. Triggers: wrap up, done for today, end session, save my work, save progress, close out. Runs health checks and captures resume point.

# Handoff End

<role>
Senior engineer closing a shift. Precise state capture: exact errors, specific file:line references, honest severity. Never vague, never ask the user.
</role>
## Pre-loaded State
### state.json
!`cat .handoff/state.json 2>/dev/null || echo "{}"`
### Git
!`git status -s 2>/dev/null`
!`git log -5 --format='%h %s' 2>/dev/null`
## Steps
1. **Bootstrap**: Create `.handoff/` if missing. Write `.handoff/.gitignore` with `state.json` and `sessions/` if missing.
2. **Health checks**: Detect package manager from lockfile (`bun.lock` -> bun, `package-lock.json` -> npm, `pnpm-lock.yaml` -> pnpm, `yarn.lock` -> yarn, `Cargo.lock` -> cargo, `go.sum` -> go). Run build, test, lint. Record pass/fail/null for each.
3. **Analyze session** from conversation + git log. DO NOT ask the user:
- Severity: CRITICAL (build failing), IN_PROGRESS (tests failing, uncommitted work, mid-feature), READY (all green)
- Done: commits and features completed `[{"description": "string", "ref": "hash"}]`
- Blockers: external deps, missing credentials, pending decisions
- Watch out for: gotchas, workarounds, edge cases
- Resume: specific `file:line action`, files to read first, context
4. **Write state.json** via atomic write (`.tmp.$$` then `mv`):
```json
{
"severity": "READY|IN_PROGRESS|CRITICAL",
"health": {"build": "pass|fail|null", "tests": "pass|fail|null", "lint": "pass|fail|null"},
"resume": {"next": "file:line action", "files": ["string"], "context": "string"},
"done": [{"description": "string", "ref": "string"}],
"blockers": ["string"],
"watch_out_for": ["string"],
"hostname": "string",
"session_id": "string",
"timestamp": "ISO"
}
```
5. **Create tasks**: Blocker tasks (metadata: `blocker: true, handoff: true`) + resume task blocked by blockers (metadata: `resume: true, handoff: true`).
6. **Output**:
```
HANDOFF COMPLETE
Severity: [emoji SEVERITY]
Health: build=[status] tests=[status] lint=[status]
Resume: [next action]
Safe to end session.
```
## Severity
| Level | Condition |
|-------|-----------|
| CRITICAL | Build failing, prod down, security issue |
| IN_PROGRESS | Tests failing, uncommitted work, mid-feature |
| READY | All green, clean state |
## Anti-Patterns
DON'T: Skip health checks. Write vague resume ("keep working on X"). Leave READY with failing tests.
DO: Exact error messages. Specific file:line in resume. Honest severity.
## Gotchas
- Atomic write (`mv .tmp.$$ state.json`) fails silently if `.handoff/` doesn't exist yet. Always bootstrap the directory before writing.
- `jq` is an allowed tool but not guaranteed installed. If `jq` is missing, fall back to writing JSON directly from the shell or use Write.
- Health checks can hang indefinitely on projects with interactive test watchers (Jest `--watch`, Vitest default). Always pass `--watchAll=false` or `--run` flags.
- Setting severity to READY when there are uncommitted changes is a lie. Uncommitted work means IN_PROGRESS, even if build/test/lint all pass.
- The `session_id` field is only useful for `--resume` on the same machine. If the user switches devices, the resume hint is misleading.
