Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generate a compact handoff document from the current chat context.
  • Include a flagged "suggested skills" section to guide the next agent.
  • Redact sensitive information and reference related artifacts by path or URL.
  • Save the document to the user's temporary directory (not the current workspace).
  • Tailor content based on provided arguments to guide the next session.
