What you'll learn
Turn vague asks into verifiable specs
Walk away with the align pattern: one question at a time, a checkable spec.md before any work begins.
Swap Claude and Codex without losing state
Pick up the same project from either host because state lives in files: no orchestrator, no re-explaining.
Catch session drift before it bites
Use the handoff and continue pattern: verification snapshots flag when the repo has moved under you between sessions.
Why this topic matters
Coding agents do their best work once they know what to ship. The hard part is the first half: removing ambiguity, planning milestones, tracking progress, building memory that survives a session ending. And the artifact doesn't have to be code. The same workflow holds for research notes, decks, or analyses. This lesson walks the six-step chain that holds long work together.
