Individual skill
session-handoff
Write a handoff document so a fresh session or another agent can pick up exactly where this one left off: goal, current state, decisions, next steps and the skills to load, referencing existing files instead of copying them, with secrets redacted before saving. Use whenever the user is ending a session, switching machines, running low on context, or asks for a handoff, a handoff doc, a 'pick up where we left off' summary, or to compact the conversation for next time. Saves to a location the user picks on first run (OS temp, home folder or per-project .handoff/) and can auto-load the latest handoff at the next session start.

# Handoff
Write a handoff document summarising the current conversation so a fresh agent can continue the work. Save to the temporary directory of the user's OS — not the current workspace.
Include a "suggested skills" section in the document, 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.
If the user passed arguments, treat them as a description of what the next session will focus on and tailor the doc accordingly.
