| name | handoff |
| description | Use when an active frontend, backend, or integration workstream must pause and record a sidecar HANDOFF.md. |
Handoff
Pause a whole workstream without transferring or resetting its current TDD
task.
- Require explicit user direction to pause the named lane/summary.
- Read the sidecar project, active
TRACK.md, current TASK.md, contract,
and any prior handoff. Reject a non-ACTIVE track.
- Record the pause point, branch, relative worktree, last commit or explicit
dirty-state decision, validation, contract impact, risks, and resume steps
in
HANDOFF.md using the packaged template.
- Set
TRACK.md status to PAUSED and retain current_task unchanged.
- Report the sidecar record locations and any manual Git state decision.
Do not create a token, move a task between tracks, create a worktree, or
change task lifecycle solely because the workstream is paused.
