What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by andrebrait/datromtool in .agents/skills/claude-handoff/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Write a handoff summary of the current conversation so a fresh agent can continue the work. Instead of saving it, launch a background agent seeded with the summary as its prompt: claude --bg --name "<descriptive name>" "<handoff summary>". It starts in the current working directory and returns immediately; the user manages it with claude agents.

Always pass -n/--name with a descriptive name (e.g. --name "Fix login bug") — it sets the display name shown in the job list, session picker, and terminal title.

Include a "suggested skills" section in the summary, which suggests skills that the agent should invoke.

Do not duplicate content already captured in other artifacts (PRDs, plans, ADRs, issues, commits, diffs). Reference them by path or URL instead.

Redact any sensitive information, such as API keys, passwords, or personally identifiable information — the summary becomes the agent's prompt.

If the user passed arguments, treat them as a description of what the next session will focus on and tailor the summary accordingly.
