# Write Handoff Report
Write a session handoff report to preserve context across sessions.
## Steps
1. Check the most recent file in `handoffs/` to understand prior state
2. Create a new file in `handoffs/` named with today's date and time: `YYYYMMDD_HHMM.md`
3. Include these sections:
- **Project State** — one paragraph summarizing current status
- **Work Completed** — bullet list of what was done this session with key results
- **Decisions Made** — any choices and their rationale
- **Open Issues** — blockers or unresolved items
- **Next Steps** — concrete actions for the next session
4. Verify the file was saved and summarize next steps to the user
