What problem does it solve? When a working session ends, all the context about open tasks, decisions, and pitfalls disappears with it. This Skill compresses the current conversation into a durable, plain-Markdown handoff file committed and pushed to the repository, so a fresh agent can resume the work without re-discovering anything. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured handoff template: Produces a fixed-section document (mission, state of play, open items, decisions, gotchas, suggested skills, next action) with a 400-word target and 800-word hard cap. - Durable by design: Commits and pushes the file to .claude/handoffs/<topic-slug>.md on the working branch, rewriting it in place across sessions instead of stacking new files. - Token-efficient continuity: Redacts secrets, references durable sources (commits, PRs, memory files) instead of duplicating them, and deletes the handoff when its work thread closes. - Use Case: Before ending a long debugging or release session, invoke the skill to leave a checklist the next chat can pick up with a single line: "Read .claude/handoffs/<topic-slug>.md and pick up from there." ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to write a handoff for the next session, optionally describing what that session will focus on.
