/save

A Claude Code slash command that checkpoints a session: it captures durable session state, routes learnings to skills/memory, reconciles project docs and trackers, commits locally (never pushes), and reports a structured restart-readiness verdict.

Two purposes:

1. Durable continuity — a session should be safely deletable with nothing of value lost; everything that matters moves out of the transcript into retrievable stores (the project's backlog record, content files, memory, git).
2. Compounding learning — every session should leave the project and Claude smarter, so the next session never re-derives, re-breaks, or re-asks.

Install

cp save.md ~/.claude/commands/save.md

Then run /save in Claude Code.

Notes

• Session handoff state is written to .claude/session_state.md — gitignore it, and point your project CLAUDE.md at it so the next session auto-resumes.
• The final section optionally hands back to an autopilot loop; if you don't run one, /save simply stops.
