Write or update a handoff document so the next agent with fresh context can continue this work.
Steps:
1. Check if HANDOFF.md already exists in the project
2. If it exists, read it first to understand prior context before updating
3. Create or update the document with:
- **Goal**: What we're trying to accomplish
- **Current Progress**: What's been done so far
- **What Worked**: Approaches that succeeded
- **What Didn't Work**: Approaches that failed (so they're not repeated)
- **Next Steps**: Clear action items for continuing
Save as HANDOFF.md in the project root and tell the user the file path so they can start a fresh conversation with just that path.
