FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a structured task handoff for an AI agent workflow?▼

Generate a structured task handoff by creating a YAML block that transfers context, decisions, and next steps between agents. This block includes fields like from_agent, to_agent, task_id, and sections for summary, context_for_next_agent, status, next_steps, and verification.

What is a Nexus handoff block and when do I need it?▼

A Nexus handoff block is a structured YAML format that captures summary, context, decisions, and scope boundaries when a task completes. You need it for end-of-task handoffs, session transitions, or cross-team handoffs within Nexus-informed workflows to reduce cognitive load for the next agent.

How do I share context and next steps between agents at task boundaries?▼

Share context and next steps by supplying task identifiers to generate a YAML handoff block. This block transfers context, decisions, and next steps between agents at task boundaries, ensuring smooth transitions in complex workflows.

Can I use YAML handoff blocks for cross-team session transitions?▼

Yes, YAML handoff blocks can be used for cross-team session transitions. They apply to end-of-task handoffs, session transitions, and cross-team handoffs within Nexus-informed workflows, capturing context, decisions, and scope boundaries.

What fields are required in a structured agent handoff block?▼

A structured agent handoff block requires fields including from_agent, to_agent, timestamp, and task_id. It also must include sections for summary, context_for_next_agent, status, next_steps, and verification to ensure complete context transfer.

Does generating a task handoff block require any external dependencies?▼

No, generating a task handoff block requires no external dependencies. It independently generates Nexus-compliant YAML structured blocks to convey context, decisions, and next steps when a task completes.
