Resume work
SkillDev toolsRebuild working context after a usage limit, a crash, a /clear or a new day, without re-reading the repository. Reconstructs state from GitHub and the last checkpoint in seconds. Use as the first command of any recovery session.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.
Then ask your AI: use the Resume work skill
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by opendefender/openrisk in .claude/skills/resume/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Your context is empty. Do not explore the repository. State does not live in
the conversation — it lives in GitHub and in .claude/CHECKPOINT.md. Read those.
1. Where were we — exactly three commands
cat .claude/CHECKPOINT.md 2>/dev/null | tail -30
gh issue list --label status:in-progress --json number,title,labels,url
git status --short && git branch --show-current
2. Load the one issue
Target issue: ${ARGUMENTS:-the single issue labelled status:in-progress}.
If several are in progress, list them and ask me which one. Do not guess.
gh issue view <n> --comments
The last agent comment is your instruction set. Its Next field is your
task. Its Done field tells you what NOT to redo. Its Verified field tells
you which commands already passed.
3. Confirm the branch, then continue
git switch <the branch from gh issue develop>
git log --oneline -5
4. Report before working — three lines maximum
Resuming #<n> — <title>
Last checkpoint: <date> by <agent> — <the Next field>
Continuing with: <what you will do now>
Then continue with /work <n>.
Rules that make this cheap
- Never
findorls -Rthe repository. - Never read
docs/JOURNAL.md. - Never re-read files the last checkpoint already summarized.
- Never re-run a verification the checkpoint recorded as green, unless you have since changed the code it covered.
- If the checkpoint is missing or unreadable, say so and read only the issue.
