handoff

SkillDocs & knowledge

Compact the current conversation into a handoff document for another agent to pick up.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the handoff skill

What this skill tells your AI

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

Write a handoff document summarising the current conversation so a fresh agent can continue the work. Save it to a path produced by mktemp -t handoff-XXXXXX.md (read the file before you write to it).

Suggest the skills to be used, if any, by the next session.

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

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