What it does

Whats Next is an agent skill from petarzarkov/dunx. Write or refresh HANDOFF.md - a compact resume point holding completed objectives, live file paths, approaches already tried and rejected, and the exact next steps, placed against the roadmap in docs/ROADMAP.md. Use before /compact or /clear, at the end of a task block, when the context window crosses ~50%, or when asked "what's next", "where were we", "hand this off", or "resume".

Its SKILL.md is about 820 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, covering Context engineering. The repository describes itself as: fastest web DI framework. NestJS-style structure at Bun speed. Constructor DI with no reflect-metadata, no experimentalDecorators, no JavaScript router. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Context engineering

Example prompts

  • “s next”
  • “where were we”
  • “hand this off”
  • “/whats-next”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d8be36b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Whats Next loads about 819 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 369 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~99
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~819

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

description
Write or refresh HANDOFF.md - a compact resume point holding completed objectives, live file paths, approaches already tried and rejected, and the exact next steps, placed against the roadmap in docs/ROADMAP.md. Use before /compact or /clear, at the end of a task block, when the context window crosses ~50%, or when asked "what's next", "where were we", "hand this off", or "resume".

/whats-next

Produce HANDOFF.md at the repo root: everything needed to resume this work in a fresh session and nothing else. It will be read cold, by a session with no memory of this one. Optimise for that reader, not for a record of what happened.

Gather

One batch, then stop:

bash
git status --short && git log --oneline -8

Read the Open items section of docs/ROADMAP.md and the file under internal/notes/roadmap/ for the item in hand, when its row links one. That is the source of truth for what "next" means. Never invent a roadmap position from the conversation.

Add what only this session knows: what you actually changed, and what you tried that did not work.

If the session is thin on state - resumed, compacted, or you were handed a HANDOFF.md rather than doing the work - do not read packages into this thread to fill the gaps. Delegate one Explore subagent per unresolved question and ask each for a one-line verdict plus file:line. The exploration stays in their context window; only the verdict comes back.

Write

Overwrite HANDOFF.md with this shape. Omit a section that has no content - never write "N/A" or "none".

markdown
# HANDOFF - <YYYY-MM-DD>

**Roadmap:** <open item> - <what remains of it>
**Branch:** <branch> @ <short sha> · <clean | n files dirty>

## Done

- <objective> - <where it landed>

## Live files

## Open questions

Rules

  • Hard cap ~60 lines. This file is loaded at the start of the next session. Every line is a permanent tax on it.
  • Next steps are commands and edits, not intentions. "Add token() and inject() to packages/core/src/di/, resolving through a module-level currentInjector set around each new Klass()" - not "continue DI work".
  • Rejected is the highest-value section. It is the only content a fresh session cannot re-derive from the tree. Record the approach, the symptom, and the path it lives or lived in. Rejections already written down in docs/architecture/ belong there, not here - link, don't copy.
  • Paths as clickable relative markdown links.
  • If an open item has been delivered, say so. If docs/ROADMAP.md is stale, fix that doc - do not record the drift in HANDOFF.md.
  • No conversation summary, no restatement of the plan, no preamble.

After writing

State the path and the roadmap position in one line, then name the next move:

  • same subtask, context heavy → /compact, and say explicitly what to preserve
  • switching subtask → /clear, then continue from HANDOFF.md

HANDOFF.md is gitignored. It is session state, not a repo artifact - rewrite it freely.
