 The bundled `task-ui` Agent Skill teaches the agent when to create task sets, mirror backend transitions, maintain execution telemetry, and avoid fabricating state. Invoke it explicitly with `/skill:task-ui` or let Pi load it when the request matches its description.
 
+## Checkpoint reminders
+
+The extension sends a hidden context reminder after these successful tool calls:
+
+- a Bash command that invokes `git commit`
+- `link_send`
+
+The reminder runs only when the projection contains an active or pending task. It asks the agent to reconcile task status, progress, and execution state before work continues. It also asks the agent to report task-ui changes in the next natural status update without interrupting the current work.
+
+The extension sends at most one reminder per agent turn. A compound Bash command must succeed as a whole. For example, `git commit && git push` does not trigger a reminder when the push fails.
+
+The reminder is hidden from the transcript, but it remains part of the agent context. Task state remains in TUI-only session entries and does not enter the agent context.

+## Checkpoint reminders
+
+The extension can send a hidden task-ui checkpoint reminder after a successful `git commit` or `link_send` tool call.
+
+When you receive this reminder:
+
+1. Compare the projection with the actual work state.
+2. Update affected task status, progress, and execution state.
+3. Add newly discovered work only when it is meaningful.
+4. Do not mark work complete only because the checkpoint succeeded.
+5. If you change task-ui, mention the change in your next natural status update.
+6. Resume the current work without waiting for confirmation.
+
+If the projection is accurate, do not change it.
+
 ## Finish or interrupt work
 
 After successful completion, call `task_ui_update` with `status: "completed"`, `executing: false`, and `progress: 100`.
