How does the Collab skill persist context between sessions?

It uses Git branches to store your current progress and changes, allowing you to 'resume' a specific branch in a new Claude session with all previous work intact.

Can I use this with non-Git repositories?

No, the Collab skill is specifically designed for Git-managed environments and requires a Git repository to handle branch transitions and state tracking.

Does it support safe merging?

Yes, the '/collab publish' command uses --ff-only (fast-forward) merges to ensure a clean history and avoids overwriting changes with --force-with-lease protections.

What is the difference between 'save' and 'checkpoint'?

The '/collab save' command creates a local commit of your current progress, while '/collab checkpoint' commits and pushes the branch to a remote, making it ready for handoffs.

Collaboration Tools

Manages collaboration state between Claude sessions using Git branches for seamless context switching and progress persistence.

About

The Collab skill enables Claude to maintain continuity across multiple AI coding sessions by leveraging Git's branching power. It provides a structured workflow for starting features, saving periodic progress, creating handoff checkpoints, and safely publishing completed work to the master branch. By standardizing branch naming conventions and commit formats, it ensures that complex, long-running tasks remain organized and resumable across different conversation contexts.

Key Features

Standardized branch naming conventions for project-based workflows
Integrations with Teslasoft agenda and Repomix for unified documentation
0 GitHub stars
Automated local progress saving and remote checkpoints for handoffs
Safe publishing workflow with fast-forward merges and automated cleanup
Seamless multi-session context switching via Git feature branches

Use Cases

Managing collaborative documentation vaults with structured branch and commit patterns
Handing off in-progress work from one AI conversation to another with full Git history
Resuming complex coding features across multiple separate Claude sessions
