thepushkarp-handoff is a Claude Code plugin for the Build phase that preserves and restores coding context between sessions using hooks and autosave-style continuity.

What it does
thepushkarp-handoff is a Claude Code plugin that keeps your agent aligned with what you were doing when a session ends, compacts, or you open a new window. Solo builders running multi-day features on one repo know the pain: summaries drop file paths, decisions, and half-finished plans. This bundle wires hooks and autosave-style behavior so context can be preserved and restored instead of rebuilt from scratch. It fits anywhere you use Claude Code on real code—not only launch or ops work—because the bottleneck is session memory, not your product stage. Expect workflow keywords around handoff, continuity, compaction, and between-session restore rather than a grab bag of unrelated automations. If you ship with agents as your primary editor, treating handoff as infrastructure is usually worth the install before the next long refactor or bug hunt.
Highlights
- Preserves and restores project context between Claude Code sessions via hooks
- Autosave and auto-inject workflow around compaction and session boundaries
- Always-on continuity options (before/after session events)
- Designed for multi-session solo builds without re-explaining the repo every time
- Single-plugin bundle focused purely on context handoff, not unrelated skills
Why builders use it
You lose decisions, file focus, and thread every time Claude compacts or you start a fresh session.
After install, session boundaries can trigger preserved context you restore instead of re-briefing the agent from zero.
