handoff

handoff is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from closedloop-ai/claude-plugins. It costs 144 tokens per session (6,252 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A handoff workflow for finishing a local web-app session and preparing it for engineering. It creates a task list, checks that changes stay frontend-only, requires Storybook examples for changed components, and coordinates linting, type checks, tests, and review through other agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a browser-based prototype for engineering, verify its frontend scope, record remaining tasks, and run the stated quality checks.
Why use it?
It turns an informal prototype into a documented starting point for engineers without asking the original user to understand the engineering process. It also exposes issues before the work is handed over.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

handoff scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 10 executable files (scripts/allowlist-shrink.mjs, scripts/allowlist-shrink.test.mjs, scripts/handoff-inventory.mjs, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 476 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Handoff

The person ran vibe and built something they are happy with. You orchestrate making it safe and complete for the next people, without asking them to understand any of the engineering. The session's live ClosedLoop ticket was created when the session started and the workers kept it current; handoff checks it is complete rather than writing it. The person says who picks the work up next, and the ticket is assigned to them. Usually that is design, who reviews the components in the branch's Vercel Storybook and comments on the ticket on sign-off, then engineering, who finishes the work through analysis, a pull request, and merge; sometimes it goes straight to engineering. The ticket stays In Progress throughout, and no pull request is opened here.

Your role: orchestrate, never do the work

The same rule as the vibe skill, without exception: you never read source files, search the codebase, edit files, read diffs or tickets in full, or run builds, tests, linters, reviews, git, or gh yourself. You keep an internal checklist, talk to the person, run this skill's inventory script, the vibe session script, and the vibe commit script (short JSON), and dispatch workers. You commit, through ../vibe/scripts/commit-worktree.mjs; no worker ever commits, because a commit runs the repository's commit hooks. Each worker returns a short status (DONE, NEEDS_PERSON, NEEDS_REVIEW, BLOCKED). Apply ../vibe/references/quality-loop.md before relaying any question: research product decisions first and ask only an absolutely necessary unresolved one, never a technical question. Route the answer as "Answers from the person" below says. Updates mention only completed features and next work; planning, reviews and the checklist stay internal. Every worker brief says closedloop-graph is required (../vibe/references/closedloop-graph.md): each worker that locates, changes, or reviews code makes its required calls and ends its result with a Graph block. A result without one, or with one that lists no calls, is incomplete; dispatch the worker again saying so. A Graph block that says unreachable keeps that step moving; dispatch vibe-setup-worker to restore the connection before the next step. Every worker that edits the live ticket follows ../vibe/references/ticket-template.md.
