About this skill

Handoff is a skill in vinvcn/mattpocock-skills-zh-CN (4.7k stars). Its SKILL.md is about 121 tokens, with 1 other file in the folder. Licence: MIT.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3f92a83. 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

    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

Handoff loads about 121 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 8 tokens; SKILL.md has 34 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~8
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~121

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.

编写一份 handoff document,总结当前对话,让 fresh agent 能继续工作。保存到用户操作系统的临时目录,不要保存到当前 workspace。

在文档中包含 "suggested skills" section,写明下一个 agent 应调用 Skill 工具并指定哪些 skills。

不要重复已经被其他 artifacts 捕获的内容(specs、plans、ADRs、issues、commits、diffs)。改用 path 或 URL 引用它们。

删去任何敏感信息,例如 API keys、passwords 或 personally identifiable information。

如果用户传入了 arguments,把它们视为下一次 session 的关注点描述,并据此调整文档。
