+# Conversation Checkpoint: Checkpoint Protocol Documentation
+Date: 2026-03-28
+
+## Summary
+Michael and I clarified and formalized the protocol for checkpointing conversations.
+
+## Decisions
+- Checkpoint protocol is now officially categorized as a tool/workflow.
+- I have added the "Checkpoint Protocol" to `TOOLS.md` to ensure consistency.
+- Checkpoints (context-meta files) must be saved in `knowledge/chat-topics/` or relevant `knowledge/projects/` subdirectories.
+- Filenames must be descriptive (e.g., `conversation-checkpoint-protocol.md`).
+- Upon starting a new session, I must read the relevant meta file to maintain context.
+
+## Next Steps
+- Continue using this protocol for all future checkpoint requests.
