1
A long conversation isn't a dependable record of everything your agent needs next.

2
Keep a short checkpoint: the goal, important constraints, current revision, completed checks, and the next action.

3
When you resume, ask the agent to inspect that record and the project before changing anything. A saved note can be stale, too.

4
Have it explain what must stay true and how it will verify the next step. Resolve mismatches before continuing.

5
Keep the work and its evidence together. The article gives you a checkpoint you can adapt in AgentGrid.
