# Review and Handoff ## Session Ending Protocol Every session should end cleanly. The /end command triggers this, but understanding the protocol matters more than the command. Before ending: 1. Commit any working code (don't leave uncommitted changes) 2. Run tests to confirm nothing is broken 3. Update PROGRESS.md 4. If mid-task, write a HANDOFF document ## PROGRESS.md Update PROGRESS.md is the single source of truth for project state across sessions. Update these sections: ```markdown ## Current Status {What phase/feature is active} ## Completed This Session - {Specific thing done} - {Another specific thing done} ## In Progress - {What's partially done, and where it stands} ## Blockers - {Anything preventing forward progress} ## Next Steps - {Ordered list of what to do next} ``` Be specific. "Worked on auth" is useless. "Implemented JWT token generation and validation in src/auth/tokens.js; unit tests passing; integration tests not yet written" is useful. ## HANDOFF Document Format When ending mid-task, PROGRESS.md isn't enough. Write a handoff at `docs/handoffs/HANDOFF_{date}.md`. ```markdown # Handoff: {Date} ## What I Was Doing {1-2 sentences on the exact task} ## Current State - Branch: {branch name} - Last commit: {hash and message} - Tests: {passing/failing, which ones} - Files changed: {list of modified files} ## What's Left 1. {Next specific step} 2. {Step after that} 3. {Final step for this task} ## Context That Matters - {Decision made
