  • Calls claude

What it does

Claude Handoff is an agent skill from vinvcn/mattpocock-skills-zh-CN. 把当前对话交接给一个全新的 background agent,让它立即接手工作。

Its SKILL.md is about 190 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

The repository describes itself as: 这是 mattpocock/skills 的简体中文本地化版本。 The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/claude-handoff”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit bf98e53. 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:

    • claude

    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

Claude Handoff loads about 193 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 14 tokens; SKILL.md has 65 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~14
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~193

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.

下一个 session 将用于什么?

为当前对话写一份 handoff summary,让一个全新的 agent 可以继续工作。不要把它保存下来,而是启动一个以这份 summary 作为 prompt 的 background agent:claude --bg --name "<descriptive name>" "<handoff summary>"。它会在当前工作目录中启动并立即返回;用户用 claude agents 管理它。

始终带上 -n/--name 并给出描述性名称(例如 --name "Fix login bug")——它设置显示名称,会出现在 job list、session picker 和 terminal title 中。

在 summary 中包含一个 "suggested skills" section,写明下一个 agent 应调用 Skill 工具并指定哪些 skills。

不要重复其它 artifacts(PRDs、plans、ADRs、issues、commits、diffs)中已经记录的内容,改为用 path 或 URL 引用它们。

删去任何敏感信息,例如 API keys、passwords 或个人身份信息——这份 summary 会成为 agent 的 prompt。

如果用户传入了 arguments,把它们当作对下一个 session 重点的描述,并据此调整 summary。
