C — SESSION DNA
Hand off context between agents.
Session DNA is a compressed context bundle — everything one agent knows, transferable to another in one command.

You start a feature in Claude Code. Halfway through, you want to switch to Cursor for its edit mode. But Cursor knows nothing. You re-explain the whole context. That's 5 minutes of typing and 20,000 tokens — every time.
Session DNA compresses the active session context — memory, open files, architectural decisions, in-progress changes — into a portable bundle. nexus-prime handoff cursor reads that bundle and primes Cursor with exactly what Claude Code knew. No re-reading. No re-explaining. Same mental model, different agent.
Cross-agent handoff
Claude Code → Cursor → Codex → Windsurf. Any direction. Session DNA reads on every agent.
Compressed context bundle
Session DNA strips noise and keeps signal: decisions made, files changed, patterns found, next steps queued.
Version-controlled
DNA bundles are stored as files. Commit them. Branch from them. Roll back to a known good context state.
Team handoffs
DNA bundles are shareable. One dev starts a feature, another continues — same agent context across people.
