Use when an ongoing coding task needs a compact root-task or subtask handoff before pausing or transferring ownership, without turning it into full-project documentation, root-state refresh, or workflow control.

Skill Handoff Summary
Overview
Capture a concise continuation-oriented handoff for a coding task that will resume later in the same thread or a new one.
This package specializes in compact handoff creation only.
It can target downstream artifacts such as .agent-state/root/HANDOFF.md or .agent-state/subtasks/<slug>/HANDOFF.md, but it does not own root-state refresh and it does not own workflow gating.
Use This Skill When
- pausing work and needing a clean continuation note for later resumption
- transferring a task to another agent with open questions, constraints, and an exact next action
- writing or refreshing a compact artifact such as
.agent-state/root/HANDOFF.md - writing or refreshing a compact artifact such as
.agent-state/subtasks/<slug>/HANDOFF.md - reducing restart cost after a stop point in a long thread
Do Not Use This Skill When
- the main need is rebuilding root-task state before more work continues
- the main need is creating subtask-local state instead of a pause artifact
- the main need is packet compression for the next live turn
- the request is asking for a workflow gate rather than a continuation handoff

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
