User is leaving or pausing ("I have to go", "save everything", "continue later") or asks to pick up where they left off. Always HANDOFF.md at the project root.

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: HANDOFF.md

One file, always this name, at the project root. No `continue-here.md`, `notes/x.md` or loose notes.

## When pausing

Rewrite (do not pile up history) `HANDOFF.md` with exactly these sections:

```markdown
# Handoff
## Done
- what is finished and tested (file:line when it helps)
## Next
- next step first, concrete enough for another AI to start without asking
## How to run
- commands to start/test
## Decisions
- choices made and why (what must not be undone without talking first)
- what was considered and rejected, and why (so the next AI does not try it again)
- a decision that changed keeps its line, marked `superseded by: <the new one>`; never delete it
```

## When continuing

Read `HANDOFF.md`, do the first item under **Next**, and update the file at the end.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vijcoelho/project-helena/handoff@sha256:63efd0ecd29280db

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.753f453, 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.
