Checkpoint — Named Progress Snapshots

Save current progress as a named checkpoint for easy recovery.

When to Use

• When you want to save work-in-progress before attempting a risky change
• When starting a refactoring pass and need a safe rollback point
• When switching between tasks and want to preserve current state
• When you need to snapshot progress at key milestones during a long session
• When collaborating and want to share a recoverable state with another agent or session

Usage

checkpoint [name]

Workflow

1. Create checkpoint — git stash push --include-untracked -m "checkpoint: <name> [<timestamp>]"
2. Log metadata — Append to .claude/checkpoints.log:
   • Timestamp
   • Checkpoint name
   • Files changed (count)
   • Current branch
3. Verify — Confirm working tree is clean after stash

Operations

• checkpoint save <name> — Create new checkpoint
• checkpoint list — Show all checkpoints from log
• checkpoint restore <name> — Apply the named stash (git stash apply; keeps the stash entry safe). Find the stash reference via git stash list | grep "<name>", then git stash apply stash@{N}. After verifying the restore, drop with git stash drop stash@{N}.
• checkpoint verify — Verify current state matches last checkpoint
