Stashing Unfinished Work

Pause the active project in .writing/ without claiming it is done.

Core principle: archive = done, stash = paused. The target is the active project (design, plan, findings, progress), not "the session."

Announce at start: "I'm using the stashing skill to pause this work safely."

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• current work is unfinished but you need to switch projects
• you are blocked on external input, dependency, or review
• you want to keep .writing/ clean without losing working context
• the task should be resumable later

Do not use this skill for completed work. Use superpower-writing:archiving instead.
