Preserve Coding Progress Across Agent Sessions
Ending a long coding session can lose decisions, verified progress, and unresolved tasks. This skill organizes that context into a structured note for the next session.
Supports: Claude Codex Code(CC)
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "session-handoff" from https://skillstore.io/skills/alapha888-session-handoff.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/alapha888-session-handoff/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "session-handoff". Prepare a handoff for a feature with passing unit tests and unfinished integration tests.
Expected outcome:
- Goal: Complete the account settings update.
- Current state: Input validation is implemented; the targeted unit tests passed.
- Decision: Reuse the existing validation helper to keep behavior consistent.
- Open task: Agent owns integration coverage; verify valid and invalid submissions.
- Next action: Add the missing invalid-submission integration test.
Using "session-handoff". Summarize an interrupted investigation of duplicate background jobs.
Expected outcome:
- Goal: Prevent duplicate jobs after retries.
- Current state: A regression test reproduces duplicate insertion; the cause remains unverified.
- Rejected approach: Increasing retry delays did not resolve the failure.
- Open task: Agent investigates transaction boundaries; verify with the regression test.
- Next action: Inspect the enqueue operation used by the failing test.
- Watch-out: Do not change the configured retry limit during this investigation.
Security Audit
Safev1 • 10/6/2026 Open versioned report
All 17 static findings are false positives: Markdown formatting, read-only Git inspection, or illustrative handoff content. The environment-file reference assigns a human configuration task without reading, exposing, or transmitting credentials. No evidence found of prompt injection or data exfiltration; session resets serve the stated handoff workflow.

Risk Factors
No confirmed security findings were detected by the latest completed static and semantic audit. This does not prove the skill has no side effects.

What You Can Build
Pause Feature Development
Record implemented behavior, changed files, and the next verification step before ending a coding session.
Transfer Debugging Work
Document failing checks, discarded hypotheses, and remaining tasks when another engineer takes over an investigation.
Resume Repository Maintenance
Capture migration dependencies, verified fixes, and unresolved release tasks before moving to a fresh agent session.
Try These Prompts
Create a Basic Handoff
Create a session handoff note for the current task. Include the goal, verified progress, changed files, unresolved tasks, and one next action.
Ground the Note in Workspace Evidence
Inspect Git status and diff statistics before drafting the handoff. Separate passing checks from unverified assumptions and list exact changed files.
Capture an Unfinished Investigation
Prepare a debugging handoff with the current failure, rejected approaches, relevant symbols, task owners, verification criteria, and the first diagnostic action.
Prepare a Constrained Session Transfer
Use the handoff template before a context reset. Record architectural decisions, dependencies, human approvals, unverified assumptions, and one precise next action. Exclude secret values.
Best Practices
- Inspect current workspace changes and record exact verification results before drafting the note.
- Use real file paths and symbols; assign each unresolved task an owner and a completion check.
- Save the note before resetting context, exclude secret values, and keep the next action specific.
Avoid
- Paste the full conversation instead of a focused handoff.
- Mark work complete without running checks or labeling unverified assumptions.
- Omit rejected approaches or finish with a vague continuation request.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I create a handoff note?
Create one before ending a session, switching tasks, clearing context, or moving to another agent session.
Which coding agents are mentioned?
The skill names Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. The workflow uses written notes rather than a dedicated agent integration.
Does the skill preserve running processes?
No. Record important process details and debugging observations explicitly; the handoff preserves only written information.
How does it distinguish facts from assumptions?
It records verification commands and results, and labels untested assumptions as unverified.
Does a handoff replace commits or tickets?
No. The skill recommends referencing version control and issue tracking rather than duplicating them.
Should I include credentials in the note?
No. Record configuration requirements and responsible owners without including passwords, tokens, or secret values.
