Handoff List

Overview

Display all available handoff documents, both active (unrestored) and archived (consumed). Helps you decide which handoff to resume or review.

Announce at start: "I'm using the handoff-list skill to show available handoffs."

When to Use

• When starting a session and unsure if handoffs exist
• When you want to review past handoff history
• Before using superpowers-ruby:handoff-resume to see what's available

The Process

Step 1: Scan Handoff Directories

# Active handoffs
ls docs/handoffs/*.md 2>/dev/null

# Archived handoffs
ls docs/handoffs/_archive/*.md 2>/dev/null

Step 2: Parse Frontmatter

For each file found, read the YAML frontmatter to extract: created, topic, branch, trigger, restored.

Step 3: Display Table

Present results with active (unrestored) handoffs first, then archived, sorted by date descending:

## Active Handoffs

| Date | Topic | Branch | Trigger |
|------|-------|--------|---------|
| 2026-04-14 | handoff-skill | lg/handoff | manual |

## Archived Handoffs

| Date | Topic | Branch | Trigger | Restored At |
|------|-------|--------|---------|-------------|
| 2026-04-13 | auth-refactor | fix/auth | compact | 2026-04-13T15:30:00 |

If no handoffs exist:

No handoff documents found in docs/handoffs/ or docs/handoffs/_archive/.

Use `/superpowers-ruby:handoff` to create one.

Step 4: Offer Next Action

If active handoffs exist, offer:

"Would you like to resume from one of the active handoffs? Use /superpowers-ruby:handoff-resume."
