- handoff
- description:
- >-
- argument-hint:
- [direction or goal for the next session]
Workflow
- Gather — inventory goal, files, decisions, discoveries, progress. Run
git branch --show-currentandgit status --short. If.scratch/<session>/session-log.mdexists, read as primary source for Current State (prefer over conversation reconstruction). Insufficient context → ask what to include rather than producing hollow artifact. - Filter — select relevant context using user's direction. Goal-directed distillation, not a session dump. No direction → derive goal from session's overall purpose.
- Structure — produce the handoff artifact using the sections below.
- Write — save to
.scratch/handoff-<slug>-<hash>.mdwhereslugis 5-7 words from the direction andhashis 4 hex chars fromopenssl rand -hex 2(e.g.,handoff-fix-auth-refresh-retry-3c8d.md). Terminal output: 1-2 line summary of what was captured + the file path. - Confirm — present file path. User may adjust or discard.
Artifact Format
Actionable without session history — no "what we discussed", no conversation-turn pointers. All paths repo-relative. Under 800 tokens. Exceeding → revisit Filter step.
| Section | Required | Content |
|---------|----------|---------|
| Goal | Always | One sentence: next session's objective, from user's direction. |
| Context | Always | Key decisions, approaches tried, discoveries. Reference specs/commits/session-log by path; do not restate them. Tag material claims with E-levels. |
| Files | When relevant | Repo-relative paths annotated: modified, read, created, planned. |
| Current State | Always | Done, in progress, blocked. Note uncommitted changes and branch. |
| Open Questions | When unresolved | Blocking or advisory unknowns. Omit if none. |
| Suggested Approach | When signal exists | How to proceed or which skill to start. Omit when clear from Goal + Context. |
Anti-Patterns
- Session transcript dump instead of goal-directed distillation
- Files not relevant to handoff goal
- Omitting uncommitted changes affecting next session's starting state
- Conversation-turn references ("as we discussed") instead of direct facts
- Restating content from spec.md, session-log, commits, or TODO.md instead of linking by path
- Secrets, tokens, or credentials in the artifact
