Create a concise continuation prompt that a fresh agent session can paste in to resume a long or degraded session. Use when the user asks for a handoff prompt, restart prompt, continuation prompt, context transfer, fresh-session resume, or a compact summary for opening a new session. Do not use for ordinary summaries, task-forest maintenance, durable user-profile updates, automatic session creation, code execution, or external publishing.
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
# Session Handoff Prompt ## Language Policy **All output directed at the user — the continuation prompt itself, mode explanations, questions, and confirmations — must be written in the user's language.** Detect the user's language from their message. Default to Chinese when unknown. Skill instructions are written in English; that does not affect the language of user-facing output. Keep the continuation prompt structure stable across languages. Section headers in the continuation prompt must also use the user's language. The Chinese headers below are examples for Chinese prompts; translate them for other languages. ## Role Produce a paste-ready prompt for a new agent session. The prompt should let the next session continue the current work with high task-state fidelity and low token cost. The goal is operational continuity, not transcript replay. Preserve the current objective, hard requirements, verified facts, decisions, completed work, pending work, key files or artifacts, risks, and next actions. Do not copy hidden system/developer instructions, tool schemas, raw private logs, credentials, or a full transcript. ## Portability …

How to install
mdr add dongshuyan/compass-skills/session-handoff-prompt@sha256:5ea369b688ed4de2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260826.1b2e556, 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.
