Captures full cognitive state and energy signatures when hyperfocus breaks to ensure seamless work resumption.
Momentum Anchor is a specialized skill designed to preserve the 'mental RAM' and emotional energy of a work session before it evaporates. Unlike traditional todo lists that only track completed tasks, this skill documents active questions, unarticulated insights, and specific re-entry paths tailored to different energy levels—such as 'Quick Wins' for low-energy returns or 'Deep Dives' for high-momentum states. It is an essential tool for neurodivergent developers or anyone managing complex systems where the cost of context-switching is high.
Key Features
010 GitHub stars
02Captures 'RAM contents' including mental models and undocumented patterns
03Generates four distinct re-entry paths based on future energy levels
04Creates date-stamped, human-readable .anchor files within project directories
05Preserves non-linear insights and messy, incomplete thoughts for context
06Prioritizes user agency by requiring permission before reading historical anchors
Use Cases
01Managing unexpected interruptions during high-focus coding or architecture tasks
02Switching between multiple complex projects without losing cognitive momentum
03Ending a deep-work session to ensure full context is preserved for the next day
