View All Guides on GitHubContext Preservation Protocol
Zero context loss system for multi-agent workflows (87.5% less rework)
What is Context Preservation?
AGENT-11's Context Preservation System ensures zero context loss across multi-agent workflows through persistent context files and mandatory handoff protocols. This results in 87.5% reduction in rework and 37.5% faster completion time.
Three Core Context Files
agent-context.md
Rolling accumulation of all findings, decisions, and critical information
- โข Mission objectives and accumulated findings
- โข Technical decisions and known issues
- โข Dependencies and blockers
handoff-notes.md
Specific context for the next agent in workflow
- โข Immediate task and critical context
- โข Warnings and specific instructions
- โข Test results and verification steps
evidence-repository.md
Centralized collection of artifacts and supporting materials
- โข Screenshots and code snippets
- โข Test results and API responses
- โข Error logs and debugging artifacts
Handoff Protocol
- 1.Agent reads agent-context.md and handoff-notes.md before starting work
- 2.Agent maintains awareness of mission context during execution
- 3.Agent updates handoff-notes.md with findings for next specialist
- 4.Coordinator merges findings into agent-context.md for mission continuity
MCP Integration Guide

Security-First Development
Critical software development principles and security protocols
Core Principle
NEVER compromise security for convenience.
When encountering security features or policies, understand why they exist before making changes. Find ways to work WITH security features, not around them.
Strategic Solution Checklist
Before implementing any fix, verify:
- โ Does this maintain all security requirements?
- โ Is this the architecturally correct solution?
- โ Will this create technical debt?
- โ Are there better long-term solutions?
- โ Have I understood the original design intent?
Anti-Patterns to Avoid
Root Cause Analysis Protocol
- PAUSE:Don't rush to implement the first solution
- RESEARCH:Understand the system design and constraints
- PROPOSE:Present multiple solutions with trade-offs
- IMPLEMENT:Choose the solution that maintains system integrity
- DOCUMENT:Record why decisions were made for future reference
