<objective> Restore complete project context and resume work seamlessly from previous session.

Routes to the resume-project workflow which handles:

  • STATE.md loading (or reconstruction if missing)
  • Checkpoint detection (.continue-here files)
  • Incomplete work detection (PLAN without SUMMARY)
  • Status presentation
  • Context-aware next action routing </objective>

<execution_context> @./references/resume-project.md </execution_context>

<process> **Follow the resume-project workflow** from `@./references/resume-project.md`.

The workflow handles all resumption logic including:

  1. Project existence verification
  2. STATE.md loading or reconstruction
  3. Checkpoint and incomplete work detection
  4. Visual status presentation
  5. Context-aware option offering (checks CONTEXT.md before suggesting plan vs discuss)
  6. Routing to appropriate next command
  7. Session continuity updates </process>
