description	Create a context handoff file, pausing work mid-phase, stopping work temporarily, or creating a checkpoint for session resumption. Triggers include "pause work", "stop work", "create handoff", "save progress", and "pause session".
metadata	{"version":"1.6.1"}

Create `.continue-here.md` handoff file to preserve complete work state across sessions.

Enables seamless resumption in fresh session with full context restoration.

@.planning/STATE.md Find current phase directory using universal discovery:

# Get current phase from STATE.md
CURRENT_PHASE=$(grep -oP 'Phase: \K[0-9]+' .planning/STATE.md 2>/dev/null | head -1)
PADDED=$(printf "%02d" "$CURRENT_PHASE" 2>/dev/null || echo "$CURRENT_PHASE")
PHASE_DIR=""
for state in active pending completed; do
  PHASE_DIR=$(find .planning/phases/${state} -maxdepth 1 -type d -name "${PADDED}-*" 2>/dev/null | head -1)
  [ -z "$PHASE_DIR" ] && PHASE_DIR=$(find .planning/phases/ -maxdepth 1 - d -name  2>/dev/null |  -1)
  [ -n  ] && 


 [ -z  ]; 
  PHASE_DIR=$(find .planning/phases -maxdepth 1 - d -name  2>/dev/null |  -1)
  [ -z  ] && PHASE_DIR=$(find .planning/phases -maxdepth 1 - d -name  2>/dev/null |  -1)

**Collect complete state for handoff:** **Write handoff to `${PHASE_DIR}/.continue-here.md`:** **Check planning config:** ``` ✓ Handoff created: ${PHASE_DIR}/.continue-here.md
