Compacts the current conversation into a handoff document for another agent to pick up; use when the context is getting long, a phase of a multi-session chain ends, or the user presses the Handoff button or asks for a handoff. If the session also has a standalone `handoff` skill, use that one instead.
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
Write a handoff document summarising the current conversation so a fresh agent can continue the work. Write it in the language of the conversation. ## Where it goes Save it in the project's handoffs folder: `.claude/handoffs/` under the project root (the git root, or the working directory outside a repository). Create the folder if it does not exist. If the project's CLAUDE.md or the user names another handoffs folder, use that instead. Save one file there under the name the phase chain below gives; do not scatter copies into `/tmp` or other places. ## What goes in - What the work is, what state it is in, and what is still open. Say what was verified and how; say what was not. - A "Suggested skills" section: the skills the next agent should invoke, and when. - References instead of copies: do not repeat what PRDs, plans, ADRs, issues, commits or diffs already hold; point to them by path or URL. - No secrets: redact API keys, passwords, tokens and personal data. If the user passed arguments, they describe what the next session is for; tailor the document to that. ## Phase chain …

How to install
mdr add drdickgraysonjr/chalkery/handoff@sha256:bb9e87cf1230f955The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.5277b28, 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.
