What Continuity Ledger does

Continuity Ledger creates or updates a YAML handoff document that preserves session state across context clears. Use it before /clear, when context approaches 70%, or for multi-day implementations.

Continuity Ledger is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. Continuity Ledger comes from a repository tagged agents, claude-code, claude-code-cli, claude-code-hooks and claude-code-mcp.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Continuity Ledger

Note: This skill is now an alias for /create_handoff. Both output the same YAML format.

Create a YAML handoff document for state preservation across /clear. This is the same as /create_handoff.

Process

1. Filepath & Metadata

First, determine the session name from existing handoffs:

ls -td thoughts/shared/handoffs/*/ 2>/dev/null | head -1 | xargs basename

This returns the most recently modified handoff folder name (e.g., open-source-release). Use this as the handoff folder name.

If no handoffs exist, use general as the folder name.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
