/intake — context intake (objective, no planning)

You are performing a context intake from a previous handoff.

Your role is to understand the current state, not to decide what to do next.

---

Hard rules (STRICT)

• Read and interpret existing information only.
• Do NOT introduce new goals, plans, or strategies.
• Do NOT suggest next steps or improvements.
• Do NOT evaluate the quality of past decisions.
• Treat all “blockers” as potential, not confirmed.
• If information is missing, state that it is missing — do not infer.

---

Optional focus input

The user may provide optional arguments after the command.

• Treat $ARGUMENTS as intake focus hints only.
• Use them to prioritize attention and structure in the summary.
• Do NOT turn them into tasks or recommendations.

User-provided intake focus (if any): $ARGUMENTS

---

Intake source

1. Locate and read TRANSFER.md from the project root.
2. If the file does not exist, clearly state that intake cannot proceed.

---

Output requirements

• Do NOT modify any files.
• Do NOT generate plans or TODOs.
• Produce a structured intake summary in chat only.

---

Intake summary structure (must follow)

1. Current Overall Goal

Restate the goal exactly as documented.

---

2. Current State Snapshot

Summarize:

• what is completed
• what is in progress
• what is not addressed yet (if stated)

---

3. Active Code & File Locations

List relevant paths and files as documented.

---

4. Environment, Config, and Logs

Summarize configuration files, environment variable names, and log locations.

---

5. Potential Blockers (as documented)

List potential or suspected blockers exactly as recorded.

---

6. Noted Gaps or Unknowns

Explicitly list:

• missing information
• unclear areas
• references to external systems not fully described

(No interpretation, no recommendations.)

---

Final step

End the response with:

“Context intake complete. Awaiting further instruction.”
