What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Structure the product-to-design and design-to-engineering handoff process and iteration workflows. Use this skill when a team needs to improve collaboration quality at handoff points.

Manage Design Handoff

Purpose

Help teams structure clean, efficient handoffs between product, design, and engineering that reduce rework and misalignment.

Skill type

Conceptual skill

Use this skill when

  • Engineering is building things that don't match the design intent
  • Design is handed off without clear context or requirements
  • Iteration cycles are slow because feedback loops are unclear
  • A new team is establishing handoff norms

Do not use this skill when

  • The goal is usability testing (use run-usability-testing)
  • Requirements haven't been written yet (use write-requirements-prd first)

Required inputs

  • Feature or flow being handed off
  • Teams involved (product, design, engineering)

Optional inputs

  • Existing handoff process or tools
  • Known pain points in current handoff
  • Design files or prototype links

Upstream context

Works best when:

  • Requirements are defined
  • Design work is complete or in progress

Downstream handoff

Output can feed:

  • plan-delivery-collaboration (delivery plan accounts for handoff checkpoints)

Instructions

  1. Define what a "complete" design handoff looks like for this context.
  2. Identify what documentation and assets must be included.
  3. Define the review and sign-off process.
  4. Establish iteration and feedback loop protocols.
  5. Identify common handoff failure modes and mitigations.
  6. Produce a handoff checklist.

Output

Provide:

  • Handoff readiness criteria (what must be done before handoff)
  • Required artifacts (specs, annotations, assets)
  • Review and sign-off process
  • Iteration protocol (how feedback goes back to design)
  • Handoff checklist
  • Common failure modes and mitigations

Risks / caveats

  • Handoff is a two-way process — engineering must confirm understanding, not just receive files
  • Incomplete handoffs create expensive rework cycles
  • Tooling matters less than clear norms and checkpoints
