Membase Handoff
Use /membase:handoff when a session is ending, context is about to be
compacted, or the user is switching to another client and wants continuity.
- Store the summary via the
store_handoff tool — it applies the literal
[HANDOFF] tag (how SessionStart's automatic prefetch and other clients'
manual search_memory calls find it) and replaces the previous handoff
for the project: the cloud keeps exactly one per project. Fall back to
add_memory with the [HANDOFF] prefix only if the tool is missing.
- Always show the same summary to the user directly, not just store it —
handoff is for both the human and the next session.
- Scope with
project when a project slug is known, so unrelated projects
don't surface each other's handoffs.
- Only durable state belongs here: what was done, decisions and why, current
state, what's next. No secrets, no raw source dumps.
