 Capture ephemeral session reasoning into durable artifacts so the next session can resume without wasting time on context reconstruction. `task_plan.md` records WHAT tasks exist; this skill captures WHY the current session chose a particular approach, what it rejected, and what it planned to do next.
 
 Two output files serve different audiences because each addresses a distinct use case:

 ## Overview
 
-This skill reconstructs session state from handoff artifacts so work can continue without wasting time re-reading files and re-discovering decisions. It is the consumer half of the pause/resume pair — `/pause` creates the artifacts, `/resume` consumes them.
