Continue Claude Work
Overview
Recover actionable context from a prior Claude Code session and continue execution in the current conversation. Use local session files as the source of truth, then continue with concrete edits and checks — not just summarizing.
Why this exists instead of claude --resume: claude --resume replays the full session transcript into the context window. For long sessions this wastes tokens on resolved issues and stale state. This skill selectively reconstructs only actionable context — the latest compact summary, pending work, known errors, and current workspace state — giving a fresh start with prior knowledge.
