Claude Handoff skill

Hands the current conversation to a fresh background agent that picks up the work immediately.

Run it in AGNT — freeView on GitHub

Why it matters

Long sessions degrade as context fills, and a clean handoff keeps momentum without re-explaining. The repository marks it as in progress, so expect changes.

How to install Claude Handoff

  1. With the skills CLI. One command copies the skill into your project:
    npx skills add mattpocock/skills --skill claude-handoff
  2. In Claude Code, by hand. Copy the claude-handoff folder from the repository into .claude/skills/ in your project, or into ~/.claude/skills/ to use it everywhere.
  3. In AGNT. Download AGNT free, then add the skill folder from Skills → Import. It runs with the model you choose, next to your agents, workflows and memory.
