Handoff Skill

This skill is designed to bridge context between agents during a transition. It uses the philosophy of the /assess skill to generate a structured local/HANDOFF.md that helps a new agent understand the project's current state, what is working, what is broken, and what to do next.

Assessment Logic (via /assess)

When triggering this skill, the agent must:

1. Gather Facts: Run .pi/skills/handoff/run.sh to get automated project data (git, docs, todos).
2. Analyze Alignment: Compare README.md and CONTEXT.md against the actual code.
3. Identify "Current Broken": Locate failed tests, TODOs, and recent bug-related commits.
4. Determine Next Steps: Review 0N_TASKS.md (if exists) and recently touched files.

Output Format: HANDOFF.md

The agent should generate or update a local/HANDOFF.md file using the following structure:

# Handoff Report: <Project Name>

**Timestamp**: <ISO Date>
**Active Agent**: <Current Agent Name>

## 1. Project Overview

- **Ecosystem**: <Python/Node/etc>
- **Core Purpose**: <Brief summary from README>

## 2. Current State (Doc-Code Alignment)

- **Documented Features**: <List>
- **Implemented Reality**: <Note any gaps>
- **Drift/Misalignments**: <Flag differences between docs and code>

## 3. What is Working Well

- <List passing critical paths or high-quality modules>

## 4. What is Currently Broken

- **Failed Tests**: <List>
- **Known Issues**: <From /assess findings or TODOs>
- **Recent Regressions**: <From git history>

## 5. Next Steps

1. <Highest priority task>
2. <Next task>

## 6. Project Context for Success

- **Key Files**: <Paths to core logic>
- **Recent Changes**: <Summary of last 3-5 commits>

How to Use

1. Trigger with "create handoff report" or "handoff this project".
2. Run bash .pi/skills/handoff/run.sh.
3. Perform a supplemental /assess deep dive if needed.
4. Prepare Environment: Ensure the local/ directory exists (create it if missing).
5. Synthesize Findings: Generate or update local/HANDOFF.md using the collected facts and /assess philosophy.
6. Present the summary to the user.
