FAQPage Schema
How do I save context and progress before clearing a session?▼

Saving progress before clearing a session involves writing your current workflow state to docs/plans/progress-[task-name].md. This persistent document captures your context, allowing you to resume the task later with minimal disruption.

What is the best way to switch tasks without losing context in my workflow?▼

The best way to switch tasks without losing context is to save your current state to docs/plans/progress-[task-name].md before clearing the session. This ensures your workflow state is preserved for later resumption.

Does saving progress to a markdown file work with the /clear workflow?▼

Yes, saving progress to a markdown file is fully compatible with the /clear workflow to reset the session. It captures your current state to a persistent document before the context window is cleared, allowing safe task switching.

When do I need to write a progress document for session management?▼

You need to write a progress document for session management whenever your context window is full or when switching tasks. This prevents losing work by preserving your current workflow state in docs/plans/.

Do I need deterministic file I/O to save session progress?▼

Yes, you need deterministic file I/O to write progress documents to the docs/plans directory. This ensures your workflow state is reliably saved to progress-[task-name].md before you clear the session.
