Keep the prompts that started the work, below the model rather than around it
Wire the provider hook, prove it by running a payload through it, and see that a prompt the tool could not parse is reported rather than silently dropped.
capture -
guaranteed intermediate
Hand work over with a question still open, and keep it blocking
Close a task into a handover while a question is unresolved, start the follow-up task, and see the same question still refuse acceptance there.

Checkpoint long work so a stop costs minutes, not the day
Record compact progress inside the active task at the profile interval, so a session that ends without warning leaves the next one a place to start.

Hand unfinished work to the next session
Stop mid-task and leave the next worker something to act on that is not a transcript.

Record a decision so the next worker can find it
Write down what was decided and why as state, then find it again without reading a conversation.

guaranteed basic
Have the session opened and closed without anybody remembering to
Wire the provider's own session events, and the episode opens when the sitting begins, hands the worker what the last one left, records what a compaction is about to discard, and closes with a continuation record beside its envelope.

Record what one worker did in one sitting
Open a session, do the work under whatever tasks it touches, and close it into an envelope that references what it produced and copies nothing.

Read only the context that fits the budget, and know what was dropped
Assemble the context a worker needs now in authority order, cut it to a line budget, and see every dropped section named with its reason.

Close an episode whose client never came back
A killed provider sends no end event. Close the episode it left open by evidence, exactly once, without claiming work it did not do.

verified basic
Start a session from a rendered framing, not a pasted transcript
List the prompt assets the repository ships, render one against the durable state, and read the context it embeds.

Resume in the right worktree, never against somebody else’s task
Find the handover that belongs to this worktree and branch, and see a task record from another checkout reported as foreign rather than enforced here.
