# Handoff

Move a task from one agent to another without starting over

## What this does

You have been working through something with an agent and now you want a different agent, or a fresh conversation, to take it from here. This boils down everything that has been said into one handoff document. The next agent reads it and picks up where you stopped, instead of you walking it through the story all over again.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Wrap up a conversation so another agent can take over
- Hand off work in progress when you switch agents
- Save yourself from re-explaining the whole story

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Handoff

When a conversation with an agent has grown long, or you want the same work carried on by a different agent, this condenses what has been said so far into one handoff document. The document is written for another agent to pick up, so the next one can read where things stand and continue from there. Reach for it at the moment you would otherwise find yourself explaining the whole story again.

## Questions

### Is Handoff safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Handoff and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 068b6e0c6239, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/handoff.

### How do I install Handoff?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/handoff on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/tree/068b6e0c62393147daf03530149cdce209c93da8/skills/productivity/handoff. Install from that link, not the branch.
