Hand off to a fresh Claude session. Use when context is full, you've finished a logical chunk of work, or need a fresh perspective. Work continues from hook.
The Handoff skill facilitates a seamless transition from one Claude session to another, solving the issue of context overload during ongoing tasks. It is particularly useful when the current session is approaching its token limit or when the user has completed a significant portion of their work and desires a fresh perspective on the problem at hand. This skill ensures that users can maintain their workflow without losing critical context, thereby enhancing productivity and reducing the cognitive load associated with session management.
You can invoke the handoff skill by typing '/handoff' followed by an optional message.
Your hooked molecule, beads state, and git state persist, while the conversation context and any todo items reset.
Currently, the handoff skill is designed for use with Bash commands as specified in the allowed-tools section.
There is no specified limit in the documentation, but you should keep your messages concise for clarity.
The skill is designed for Gas Town agents and users who need to manage context-heavy sessions effectively.
