## What edo-tensei does, in the publisher's words

When your AI quota runs out mid-task, switching to another IDE shouldn't mean losing all your context.

Edo Tensei (穢土轉生, "Impure World Reincarnation") extracts local AI session histories from the IDEs installed on your machine and packages them into a ready-to-paste handoff prompt, so the next agent can pick up exactly where the last one left off.

In Naruto, Edo Tensei (Impure World Reincarnation) is a forbidden jutsu that summons the souls of the deceased back to the living world, binding them to a vessel to restore their memories and abilities.

- The Deceased: An interrupted AI session (due to quota limits, crashes, or switching tools).
- The Vessel: The Handoff Prompt extracted and packaged by this tool.
- The Reincarnation: Pasting the prompt into a new IDE/agent, allowing the "dead" development context to be perfectly reborn in a new AI entity.
