- Use when ongoing work must continue in a new conversation, session, or agent with no shared history. Triggers:
- handoff', 'prepare context for next chat', 'summarize for a new session', 'continue this in another conversation'. Not for same-chat status updates or repository documentation.
Handoff
Produce a transfer-ready handoff for in-progress work.
Invocation Notice
- Inform the user when this skill is being invoked by name:
handoff.
Critical Constraints
- Assume the recipient can only see the handoff output and nothing else.
- Output one fully filled handoff payload in chat.
- Do not create a handoff file unless explicitly requested.
- Do not rely on references like "above" or "earlier in this thread".
- If information is missing, write
Unknownand specify what is needed.
When to Use
- Handing off work to a new conversation or agent.
- Resetting context while preserving execution continuity.
- Transferring partially complete implementation/debugging work.
- Capturing next actions before ending a session.
When Not to Use
- Simple same-thread progress updates.
- Creating long-lived project documentation.
- Retrospectives not intended for immediate continuation.
Workflow
- Extract the objective, success criteria, and current status from available context.
- Collect concrete evidence: files touched, commands run, validation status, blockers, and risks.
- Capture decisions with rationale so the recipient understands intent and tradeoffs.
- Fill every section of
assets/handoff-template.md. - Ensure next steps are ordered and step 1 is immediately executable.
- Return the completed template in chat for copy/paste.
Output Rules
- Match the template section headings exactly.
- Keep statements specific and verifiable; avoid vague summaries.
- Include validation details (passed, failed, or not run).
- Include blockers with owner/dependency and concrete impact.
Quality Checklist
- The goal and definition of done are explicit.
- Done vs. pending work is unambiguous.
- Blockers include dependency/owner and impact.
- Validation status includes what passed, failed, or was skipped.
- The first next step can be executed immediately.
- The recipient can proceed without asking for missing context.

ahgraber/editorial-review
development
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use when the user wants rigorous, non-sycophantic editorial feedback on a draft, essay, blog post, or argument through back-and-forth dialogue — pressure-testing thesis, structure, argument, clarity, tone, and evidence. Triggers: "be my sparring partner", "pressure-test this draft", "poke holes in my argument", "is this ready to publish", "sharpen this post", "where is this weak". Not for one-shot copyediting, proofreading, or ghostwriting.

ahgraber/synthesize
testing
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use when distilling the through-line gist of one or more sources — the spine, argument, tension, or recurring frame running through a set of documents, notes, research, or transcripts, OR across the ideas within a single rich piece — into a few concise paragraphs. Triggers: "synthesize", "what's the through-line/gist", "extract the insight", "pull these together". Not for faithful summary or condensation that covers what a source says, nor for comparisons or catalogs where enumeration is the deliverable.

ahgraber/writing-tests
development
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use when writing or reviewing tests in any language, or diagnosing a suite that is slow, brittle, or hard to read. Triggers: "write tests", "how should I test this", "what kind of test", "test is flaky/fragile", "should I mock this", "test is hard to read". For Python-specific guidance see `python-testing`.

development
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use when writing, debugging, or explaining Strudel live-coding music patterns — mini-notation syntax, pattern functions (fast/slow/every/off/stack), synth/sample selection, audio effects, scale/chord/voicing API, or EDM production recipes. Triggers: "write a Strudel pattern", "how do I make a bassline in Strudel", "what does .every() do", "strudel drum beat", "strudel chord voicing", any Strudel code question.
