`Claude` Handoffs: Split Persistent Notes and Incoming Prompts

Long sessions decay; handoffs reset context without losing decisions. The useful pattern is durable project state first, chat summary second.

[ KEY POINTS ]
  1. The handoff flow compresses a session, references artifacts, then starts a fresh agent. Good fit for long refactors and multi-step product work.
  2. A two-artifact split keeps a persistent narrative file for decisions and an ephemeral prompt for the next agent’s boot sequence.
  3. Incoming agents should rebuild from codebase state plus the narrative, not only a compressed chat log. That lowers summary drift.
  4. In multi-agent work, persisted handoff files show which agent acted from firsthand context versus a summary. Debugging gets easier.
