Session handover: when context fills, a phase closes, or the topic changes, write an action-oriented handover to docs/SESSION_STATE.md, then recommend /clear.

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 Handover (Handoff)

<!-- routing-eval reads the next line; why it sits in the body: AGENT_TEMPLATE.md -->
Trigger phrases: "handoff", "hand off", "session summary", "session state", "clear context", "I'll continue", "next session", "where we left off", "run out of room", "continue tomorrow"

## When
Session fill (the `🔋` line) > 75% · phase closure · topic change. Goal: the next session should **not start from scratch**.

## Output (docs/SESSION_STATE.md, local)
```
# Session Handover — <date>
## Done
- <completed work + which files>
## In progress
- <what's half-finished + exactly where it was left off>
## Next step
- <a clear, single high-value step>
## Open decisions
- <pending decision + options>
## File pointers
- docs/PLAN.md, relevant modules...
## Blockers / risks
- <if any>
```

## Measure the session before summarising it
Run **`bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/session-stats.sh"`** first, with the Bash tool, not PowerShell. What it reports belongs in the handover as fact, not
impression — an auto-compaction means state was already dropped before you started writing (say what was lost),

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add byerlikaya/claude-starter-kit/handoff@sha256:894810629401b9ed

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.ffce39a, 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.
