End a session and hand it off to the next one — if collaboration infrastructure (GitHub, GitLab, Forgejo, Jira, Plane, Slack) exists, write resumable state as the body of an issue in that tracker and hand over a single issue URL — in that case do not create HANDOFF.md in the repo (no pointer file either). Only in a folder with no tracker, write the full content into HANDOFF.md itself and finish with that file. At a boundary where the work issue was closed, leave a single comment on the next…
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 A handoff is **resumable state, not a summary**. The next session should be able to read it alone and type the next command from the same spot. The point is not "what was done" but **"where things stand now and what to type next."** When context usage hits 40-50%, stop what you're doing and invoke this skill. Compaction is only a safety net, since the model chooses what to discard on its own. ## Where to leave it — one place per situation Do not split resumable state across **two locations.** Splitting it means neither location is resumable on its own, and the next time it's written one half silently goes missing (observed 2026-09-21, issue #152 — gotchas and startup commands were only in the handoff issue, while newly confirmed patterns were only in the next issue's memo). | Situation | Where to leave it | What the next session receives | | --- | --- | --- | | **Mid-issue** — the work issue is still open (context at 40-50%, etc.) | A dedicated handoff issue (no `HANDOFF.md` is created in the repo; see "Two branches" below) | The handoff issue URL | …

How to install
mdr add leeyudok/agents-scaffold/handoff@sha256:c9721caee8acd4faThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.a835af9, 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.
