handoff-relay

handoff-relay is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from EZotoff/ez-omo-config. It costs 66 tokens per session (762 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A session handoff tool that records a task's purpose, current state, evidence, and next steps in a dated file. Another session can read that file and decide whether to continue, revise, or archive the work.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for checkpointing work at stable boundaries and restarting later from a documented mission, repository state, completed work, open work, and restrictions.
Why use it?
It prevents important context from being lost when work moves between sessions or operators. It also avoids treating an old or incomplete snapshot as automatically correct.

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-relay 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 4d ago.

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 — 60 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Handoff Relay — emit and resume

Triggers: /handoff, /handoff emit, /resume-from, "handoff", "new session", "hand this off"

The acceptance boundary (non-negotiable)

  • Emit only at stable boundaries: an explicit operator request, a completed work unit, or session close. NEVER emit merely because the context window is filling — a context-pressure snapshot captures an unstable moment and goes stale immediately.
  • Resume never auto-continues. The first thing a resuming session does is present the decision checkpoint: continue / revise / archive. Execution begins only after the operator picks.
  • The artifact is evidence, not authority.

Emit procedure (/handoff [emit] [slug])

Write .builder-kit/audit/handoff-<slug>-<YYYY-MM-DD>.md (create dirs as needed) with exactly these sections:

# Handoff: <one-line mission>
- emitted: <ISO date-time> | source session: <id> | source head: <commit sha + branch + clean/dirty>
- supersedes: <previous handoff file or "none">   ← update the superseded file's status line if it exists

## Mission
What this thread is for and its current done-condition. 3–6 lines.

## Entry artifacts (read these first)
Numbered files/sections in reading order, each with a one-line "what you'll learn".

## State
- Done (with commit refs)
- In flight (exact coordinates: repo, branch, session IDs)
- Known gotchas / landmines

## Next steps
Numbered, each with a verifiable done-condition.

## Prohibitions
What the receiving session must NOT do (scope locks, "do not touch X").

Rules: cite commits and session IDs, never paraphrase them. If the tree is dirty, say so — a dirty-tree handoff is a warning label, not a blocker. After writing, reply with the file path and nothing else.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
