At a glance

Alias for /origin:handoff — symmetric brief/debrief naming. An agent skill from davepoon/buildwithclaude.

  • The user prefers the brief/debrief pair over brief/handoff
  • SKILL.md covers When to use and When NOT to use
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Debrief is an agent skill from davepoon/buildwithclaude. Alias for /origin:handoff — symmetric brief/debrief naming. Same behavior: end-of-session ritual that writes session log + project status + granular MCP captures. Invoked as /debrief. Use when the user prefers the brief/debrief pair over brief/handoff.

Its SKILL.md is about 280 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: A single hub to find Claude Skills, Agents, Commands, Hooks, Plugins, and Marketplace collections to extend Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Agent SDK and OpenClaw. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user prefers the brief/debrief pair over brief/handoff

Example prompts

  • “Use the debrief skill to alia for /origin:handoff — symmetric brief/debrief naming. An agent skill from davepoon/buildwithclaude”
  • “/debrief”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, mcp__plugin_origin_origin__capture

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 10bfc43. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • mcp__plugin_origin_origin__capture

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Debrief loads about 275 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 101 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~275

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, mcp__plugin_origin_origin__capture

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

/debrief

Alias for /handoff. Identical behavior — full end-of-session ritual: git context grab (if repo), narrative session log at ~/.origin/sessions/, project status update, granular MCP captures.

Run the steps in /origin:handoff exactly. Same artifacts, same guardrails. The only reason this skill exists is the symmetric naming — /brief (session start) ↔ /debrief (session end). Pick whichever verb feels natural; both invoke the same flow.

When to use

  • User says "wrapping up", "let's call it", "we're done", "debrief".
  • Session about to close and useful state would otherwise be lost.

When NOT to use

  • Mid-flow capture during work → use /capture (single memory).
  • Search / lookup → use /recall.
