handoff

A handoff document that records the current conversation's state so another coding agent can continue the work. It is written in Chinese and includes progress, decisions, unresolved issues, next steps, suggested skills, and related files or links.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when handing work to another agent or starting a fresh session later. It can capture what is finished, what remains, and which files or plans the next agent should use.
Why use it?
It prevents the next session from having to reconstruct the important context from the entire conversation.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 2d 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.

What it actually says

将当前对话浓缩为交接文档,使全新启动的 Agent 能够接续工作。将文档保存到 mktemp -t handoff-XXXXXX.md 生成的路径(写入前先读取该文件)。

在文档中建议下一个会话应使用的技能(如有)。

不要重复已在其他产物中记录的内容(PRD、计划、ADR、issue、commit、diff)——用路径或 URL 引用即可。

若用户传入了参数,将其作为下一个会话焦点的描述,并据此调整文档内容。

交接文档结构

# 交接文档

## 当前状态
简述已完成的工作和当前代码库状态。

## 上下文快照
- 核心决策及其理由(可引用 ADR/commit)
- 已知未解决的问题
- 重要的域语言或约定

## 下一步工作
明确下一个会话需要完成的任务,按优先级排列。

## 建议技能
列出下一个会话应载入的技能(如有)。

## 相关文件/链接

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.

handoff is a skill published in the GitHub repository ProgrammerAnthony/Expert-Coding-Harness (234 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 345 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
