hv-pauselisted

Gracefully pause mid-session — writes a handoff note (current hypothesis, next planned step, mid-edit files, uncommitted work strategy) to .hv/handoff/<branch>.md so /hv-next in a fresh session can pick up with full context, not just git state. Use when the session is approaching a context limit, you need to hand off, or you want to stop a long /hv-work cycle cleanly.

Phases: 1. *Snapshot context* — current hypothesis, next planned step, mid-edit files captured (Step 2) 2. *Compose handoff* — narrative drafted for `/hv-next` to surface on resume (Step 3) 3. *Write to .hv/handoff/* — file persisted under the active branch's name (Step
