05 / Handoffs
Handoff
Moving what one session knows into a new one. There is no way back, so whatever does not make it across is simply lost. Treat it as a design problem, not an afterthought.
How you’ll hear it
“How does tomorrow’s session know what we did?”
“We write a handoff before we close this one.”
Avoid
Ending a session without deciding what carries over.
The longer version
A handoff moves what one session knows into the next, and anything not carried across is lost. Treat it like a shift handover on a hospital ward: brief, structured and focused on what the next person needs.
