Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Task Handoff This skill is coordination-exempt: skip the ai-coord gate for its declared work. If a slash or dollar invocation already added these instructions, follow them directly. In that case, do not invoke this skill again through a skill tool. Turn one continuation task into one self-contained task handoff for a fresh agent chat. Write the handoff only. Do not implement, edit tracked files, commit, push, launch Codex, or change ignore configuration. Task-handoff writes one decision-complete file for a fresh, separate session. For a simple task, that isolated file is enough for direct execution in the receiving session. For a complex task, resolve `~/.agents/skills/orchestration` to its expanded absolute directory, require a readable `SKILL.md` there, and embed that absolute skill path in the handoff. Direct the receiving session to load it from Plan mode and use the handoff as its task specification so Codex subagents can implement it. Do not rely on bare `$orchestration` discovery. Task-handoff still creates exactly one file and never launches orchestration itself. Use task-handoff when work …

How to install
mdr add paulrberg/agent-skills/task-handoff@sha256:1baf02fcb13d4275The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.4a05e5c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
