Skill release postManage agent memory
Post summary
Keeps a live checkpoint so a coding agent can resume after quota limits, context loss, or switching tools without re-explaining the task.
continuity: Live checkpoint across agents
Maintains a small .agent/CONTINUITY.md so work can resume after quota limits, context loss, crashes, or switching coding agents.

Examples
Author release post describes building Continuity after Codex quota cuts forced a Claude Code restart and full re-brief (https://x.com/Hacklone/status/2116156522405265693).
Uses
Opt in when you need interruption-safe or cross-agent resume, or to continue an existing .agent/CONTINUITY.md. Pair with a native harness goal that states the objective; Continuity records recoverable working state, not the goal itself.
Prerequisites
An Agent Skills-compatible coding agent and a working tree you control sequentially. Concurrent agents need separate worktrees or checkpoints. Instruction-only: no hooks, daemons, or external services.
How to use
Activate Continuity → read repo instructions and any existing CONTINUITY.md → reconcile with git status/diffs → create or resume the checkpoint for the current objective before substantial work → after each recovery-relevant result, refresh Objective/Progress/Current/Decisions/Dead ends/Validation/Blockers/Next → hand off by opening the same tree in another agent and resuming from the checkpoint.
Limitations
Not a task manager, transcript, history log, or orchestrator. Do not silently overwrite an unrelated unfinished checkpoint. Progress is sparse anti-repeat state; reference durable specs instead of copying full task lists. Repository artifacts outrank the checkpoint. Checkpoint rules are behavioral, not mechanically enforced.
Install options
The review-first prompt is selected by default. You can switch to a direct command or download a local copy.

| description | Maintain or resume a small live checkpoint for coding work that must survive quota limits, context loss, crashes, or switching between coding agents. Use when the user explicitly asks for continuity, interruption-safe work, cross-agent resume, or to continue an existing .agent/CONTINUITY.md. Do not activate merely because a coding task is long. |
