/restart-handoff command

What it does

A template builtin beside /init and /team, typed before ending a session: it saves what landed, what is in flight and the next step to a handoff document, and prints the prompt that resumes the work in a fresh session.

Against the three criteria

• Direction (README): The README says nothing about compaction or resuming.
• Today's terminal users: Evidence of use: the owner wrote seven such handoffs by hand in twelve days (2026-09-08 to 2026-09-19).
• Evidence: The template builtins are /init and /team only (crates/ganja-core/src/command.rs:56, crates/ganja-core/src/command.rs:68). The bead carries a design note, and the name was ruled on 2026-09-11.

Depends on

Related to #90 (the only dependency edge among the idea beads, a related one, not blocking): both save a session's state, and whatever state collection #90 lands is what this one reuses.

Verdict

• Verdict: park
• Reopens: at the next landing that touches the template builtins (/init, /team).
• Exception to the probe rule: no.
• Date: 2026-09-19
• Verdict ticket: #42

Theme: #56

Start by reading the template builtin entries in crates/ganja-core/src/command.rs at the referenced lines, then review the state collection planned for related issue #90. The feature is done when /restart-handoff saves what landed, what is in flight, and the next step to a handoff document, then prints a prompt that resumes the work in a fresh session; the issue is currently parked until a template-builtin landing.
