Break Session

Quick checkpoint before stepping away. Captures current state, commits any dirty work, cancels the session timer.

Steps

0 — Get context

Run date to get the current time.

Determine the project name and branch:

basename "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"
git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD

1 — Write the break entry

Summarise current progress in a few bullet points, then write it:

jotter write \
  --project <project> \
  --branch <branch> \
  --type break \
  --content "<what's been done, current state, anything half-finished>" \
  --next "<what to pick up on return>"

2 — Commit dirty work

git status
git diff --stat

If there are uncommitted changes worth saving, propose a grouping to the user and commit after approval. Don't leave half-done work uncommitted across a break.

3 — Cancel session timer

If a session cron timer is running, cancel it with CronDelete <job-id>. /start will set a fresh one on return.

4 — Confirm

"Break saved. Run /start when you're back."
