Save this session's working state to .forge/HANDOFF.md so the user can /clear and continue with a small context. Use between phases, when context is large, or when the tokenforge context warning says so.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# handoff

Write `.forge/HANDOFF.md` in the project root, at most 60 lines. Cover only what a fresh session cannot cheaply rediscover.
Recent requests, changed files and the last reply are already saved automatically in `.forge/snapshots/`; don't repeat them. Spend the lines on decisions, next steps and gotchas.

```markdown
# Handoff: <goal in one line>
## Done
- <finished step>: <where it lives>
## Decisions
- <decision>: <reason> (include rejected options when they matter)
## Next
1. <exact next step, with file paths and commands>
## File map
- path/to/file: <role, one line>
## Gotchas
- <trap found during this session>
```

Rules:
- Never paste code bodies. Point to `path:line` instead.
- Name the exact commands that build, test and run (tforge included).
- Overwrite the previous handoff. Don't append to it.

Then tell the user in one line: run `/clear`. The handoff reloads automatically in the next session.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add chteau/tokenforge/handoff@sha256:c779c7da8af10535

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.cd99252, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
