bootstrap-handoff

bootstrap-handoff is a skill for Claude Code from Senavictors/bootstrap-agent-architecture-plugin. It costs 111 tokens per session (864 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A handoff workflow for recording the current state of an active task before work pauses. It captures changes, evidence, and the next steps so another session or person can continue.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before pausing a task to record the working-tree status, completed work, remaining steps, and information needed for continuation.
Why use it?
It prevents lost context when you stop work or switch tools. The handoff is based on the repository's actual changes rather than memory.

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

bootstrap-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 6d 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 — 35 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

bootstrap-handoff — pausa e continuidade

O gatilho é sempre manual. Não existe (e não deveria existir) uma forma confiável de a sessão detectar sozinha "meu orçamento de contexto está acabando" e disparar isso — o usuário decide quando pausar, seja por token, por fim de expediente, ou por qualquer outro motivo.

Entrada opcional

O usuário pode passar um comentário livre junto do pedido (ex.: "faz o handoff — falta só o tratamento de erro da API"). Trate isso como o conteúdo mais confiável para a seção "Próximos passos" — mais confiável que qualquer inferência sua a partir do código.

Procedimento

  1. Identifique a task ativa. Se houver mais de uma em .agents/tasks/active/, pergunte qual (não assuma a mais recente).
  2. Rode git status e git diff (ou equivalente do VCS do projeto) para capturar exatamente o que está modificado na working tree — isso é mais confiável que confiar na sua própria memória da sessão.
  3. Abra o arquivo da task e atualize, sem apagar o que já existia:
    • Registro de execução → Alterações realizadas: o que foi de fato concluído nesta sessão, com evidência (arquivo, comando rodado, resultado).
    • Próximos passos imediatos: incorporando o comentário do usuário (se houver) e o que o git diff mostra como código a meio caminho.
    • Pendências: qualquer coisa que ficou sabidamente quebrada ou incompleta — não esconda isso para a task parecer mais avançada do que está.
  4. Preencha (ou atualize) .agents/handoffs/<task-id>-<data>.md a partir de assets/templates/agents-hub/handoffs/_template.md (do bootstrap-init): objetivo, estado atual, concluído, em andamento, próximos passos, arquivos modificados, comandos executados, falhas atuais, decisões tomadas, e "não refazer" — este último campo é o mais fácil de esquecer e o que mais evita retrabalho na próxima sessão.
  5. Vincule o handoff à task — adicione o link no campo "Handoff" da task ativa.
  6. Se o guardrail anti-vazamento não rodou recentemente, sugira rodar bootstrap-audit antes de encerrar — um handoff é um bom momento para pegar um segredo colado por engano antes que ele fique registrado num arquivo que sobrevive à sessão.

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.
