handoff
v2.9.0Conversation-handoff document generator. Compacts the current conversation into a markdown handoff so a fresh agent can continue. References existing artifacts (PRDs, plans, ADRs, issues, commits) by path/URL — does not duplicate them. Enhanced from Matt Pocock's MIT-licensed handoff skill (https://github.com/mattpocock/skills) with: (1) stdlib Python tools (template generator, artifact deduplicator, skill recommender), (2) 3 reference docs citing 5+ authoritative sources each (handoff structure, deduplication discipline, next-session skill matching), (3) cs-handoff-author persona agent + /cs:handoff slash command. Matt's no-duplication discipline preserved verbatim per MIT. Use when user wants to hand off the current conversation to a fresh agent or starts a new session that picks up prior work.
