SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When a conversation grows long or needs to move to a new agent session, context is lost and the next agent starts from scratch. This Skill compacts the current conversation into a structured handoff document so a fresh agent can continue the work without re-reading the entire history. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Conversation Compaction: Summarizes the current session into a handoff document saved to the OS temporary directory, keeping the workspace clean. - Suggested Skills Section: Recommends which skills the next agent should invoke to continue the work effectively. - Artifact Referencing: Avoids duplicating content already captured in specs, plans, ADRs, issues, commits, or diffs by referencing them via path or URL. - Sensitive Data Redaction: Removes API keys, passwords, and personally identifiable information before writing the document. - Use Case: You finish a long debugging session and want a new agent to implement the fix. Invoke the handoff skill with a note like "implement the auth fix", and it produces a tailored summary the next agent can act on immediately. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create a handoff document summarizing this conversation for the next session focused on implementing the planned changes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I transfer conversation context to a new agent session?

Invoke the handoff skill to compact the current conversation into a summary document saved to your OS temporary directory. A fresh agent can read that document and continue the work without the full history.

How do I create a handoff document for the next coding session?

Run the handoff skill and optionally pass a description of what the next session will focus on. The skill tailors the document to that goal and includes a suggested skills section for the next agent.

Where is the handoff document saved?

The handoff document is saved to the temporary directory of your operating system, not the current workspace. This keeps your project repository free of transient session files.

Does the handoff document include sensitive information?

No. The skill redacts sensitive information such as API keys, passwords, and personally identifiable information before writing the document, so secrets are not carried into the next session.

Does the handoff duplicate my specs and plans?

No. Content already captured in artifacts like specs, plans, ADRs, issues, commits, or diffs is referenced by path or URL instead of being duplicated in the handoff document.
