Write or update a handoff document so the next agent with fresh context can continue this work.

Steps:

  1. Check if HANDOFF.md already exists in the project
  2. If it exists, read it first to understand prior context before updating
  3. Create or update the document with:
    • Goal: What we're trying to accomplish
    • Current Progress: What's been done so far
    • What Worked: Approaches that succeeded
    • What Didn't Work: Approaches that failed (so they're not repeated)
    • Next Steps: Clear action items for continuing

Save as HANDOFF.md in the project root and tell the user the file path so they can start a fresh conversation with just that path.
