Write a self-contained handoff document so another session, person or machine continues the work without this session's context: decisions and why, what is done and tested, exact paths and values, open blockers, boundaries, and an explicit continue-from-here step. Lands in a synced folder with a short seed prompt. Triggers: "/handoff", "prepare a handoff", "hand this off".
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 — hand the work over to another session / person / machine When the work has to continue somewhere ELSE (another machine, another person — the operator ↔ a human assistant, or simply a fresh session after `/compact`), `/handoff` assembles one self-contained document that lets someone pick it up cold. It kills the "so what were you doing here?" round trip. ## What to assemble (the /compact format — rationales are lost first, so record them verbatim) As headings with bulleted lists: - **DECISIONS** — what was decided + WHY (what was rejected; what we do / do NOT do). - **DONE + TESTS** — what is finished and how it was verified (counters, exit codes, "passed/failed"). - **PATHS AND VALUES** — exact files/scripts/folders + values (note names, IDs, env vars, constants). - **OPEN / BLOCKERS** — what is unfinished, what is broken (the symptom), what we are waiting on. - **BOUNDARIES** — what NOT to touch, what needs the operator's approval (Tier-2), what is hub-only. - **➤ CONTINUE FROM HERE** — one explicit first step for whoever picks it up. ## Where to put it (synced → it travels on its own) …

How to install
mdr add tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit/handoff@sha256:426d576398b00f23The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.cd6c208, 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.
