PAUL Pause
Prepare a self-contained resume point for a session break.
Canonical workflow
../workflows/pause-work.md
Default output
- Concise by default: confirm the handoff path, loop position, git state summary, and exact resume action.
- Expand only for blockers, conflicting state, fragile evidence, or user-requested detail.
Command-local notes
- Create an active
.paul/HANDOFF-{date}-{context}.md that assumes the next reader has no prior context.
- Capture current loop position, work in progress, decisions, git state, and recent file changes.
- Update
STATE.md session continuity and point resume routing at the fresh handoff.
