Manages development state by creating and verifying workflow checkpoints to track progress and regressions.
The Checkpoint skill provides a structured way to manage project state during complex development tasks. By integrating with Git and local logging, it allows users to save progress snapshots, compare current work against previous milestones, and track changes in test pass rates or code coverage. This skill is particularly useful for refactoring sessions or multi-stage feature implementations where maintaining a verifiable baseline is essential for debugging and quality assurance.
Key Features
01Maintain a persistent log of development milestones in .claude/checkpoints.log
02Create named snapshots using Git stashes or commits
03Compare file modifications and additions across workflow stages
04Verify current progress against saved checkpoints
050 GitHub stars
06Track test pass rates and coverage changes over time
Use Cases
01Capturing a stable state before starting a high-risk refactoring task
02Verifying feature completeness against the initial project baseline before a PR
03Tracking performance or test regressions during iterative development cycles
