Handoff
My personal Agent Skills for coding agents: engineering workflows plus a few personal-use tools. Personalized forks, with every upstream author credited.
npx -y skills add martonpaulo/skills --skill handoffAssembled from the repository path, not quoted from the project. Check it against their README if it does not work.
2 things to look at
- 16 days oldThe repository was created 16 days ago. New is not bad, but a brand new repository carrying a familiar-sounding name is the shape a typosquat arrives in, and there has been no time for anyone else to find a problem with it.
- 0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.
What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Write a compact durable handoff containing the exact context, decisions, modified files, verification, risks, and next action another agent or later session needs to continue safely.

Handoff
Create a durable continuation note only when the user invokes this skill.
Destination
Use the repository's configured handoff path when available. Otherwise:
- inside a repository:
.scratch/handoffs/<timestamp>-<topic>.md; - outside a repository:
~/tools/handoffs/<timestamp>-<topic>.md.
Use a sortable local timestamp and a short descriptive slug. Create the destination directory only when writing the handoff.
Required content
- goal;
- current state;
- decisions already made;
- assumptions and constraints;
- relevant files and symbols;
- files modified;
- commands and tests run;
- test results;
- known failures, risks, or uncertainty;
- Git status and branch when relevant;
- exact next action.
Keep the document compact and operational. Reference existing artifacts instead of copying them or the full conversation. Redact credentials, secrets, and unnecessary personal information. If suggested skills would materially help, name only skills from this personalized collection.
Completion
Report the absolute handoff path and confirm that the next action is specific enough to execute safely.
