Pull older handoffs from .claude/handoff_history/ into the current session's context. Requires the scripts/hooks installed by this repo's ./install.sh — the history it reads only exists once those are in place. Use when the auto-loaded handoff_current.md is thin (placeholder Notes, missing context the user is referencing), when the user references work from "yesterday" or "the session before this one," or whenever the user explicitly invokes /handoff-more. Reads up to N older snapshots…

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

# /handoff-more — load older handoffs into context

> **Prerequisite:** this skill reads history that only exists when the
> scripts and hooks from https://github.com/Sting25/claude-code-handoff
> are installed — `write_handoff.sh` is what rotates snapshots into
> `handoff_history/`. That toolchain lives under `~/.claude/bin/`
> (script install) or the plugin's `bin/` (plugin install) and is NOT
> part of this file alone; run `./install.sh` from that repo (or
> install the plugin) once per machine first.

The `SessionStart` hook auto-loads `handoff_current.md` (the most
recent handoff). This skill pulls in the older snapshots that
`write_handoff.sh` rotated into `<repo>/.claude/handoff_history/`
before each new write.

## When to invoke

- **User asks explicitly** (`/handoff-more`, "load more handoff
  context," "what did we do two sessions ago," etc.).
- **Auto-loaded handoff is thin.** If `handoff_current.md` was the
  result of an automatic `SessionEnd` write (no model in the loop to
  add curated Notes), the SessionStart hook already loaded the prior
  one as a fallback. But if the user is referencing decisions or work

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sting25/claude-code-handoff/handoff-more@sha256:a7d516255c4d828e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260811.ad203db, 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.
