- #954: strip non-spec source/attribution keys from all 39 plugin.json manifests so Claude Code's validator accepts them; metadata preserved in new .claude-plugin/authoring-notes.json sidecars; check_plugin_json.py now hard-fails manifests carrying those keys and sanity-checks the sidecar; CLAUDE.md ClawHub schema section updated to the new rule. - #949: move the c-level-agents plugin out of c-level-advisor/ to a top-level directory so the two marketplace sources no longer overlap; updated marketplace.json source, homepage, descriptions, all cross-references, docs, harness manifest, mirror-tree symlinks/indexes, and rebased the moved files' relative links; domain counters trued up (18 -> 19 domains). - #933: replace dead links to the gitignored maintainer-local megaprompts/ tree with annotated plain-text references (44 files: SKILL.md, READMEs, agents, commands). - #931: DynamoDB on-demand pricing updated to post-Nov-2024 rates ($0.625/M writes, $0.125/M strongly consistent reads). - #969: skill_security_auditor.py and the three dossier scripts reconfigure stdout/stderr to UTF-8 (errors=replace) so legacy Windows codepages no longer crash at print time; PYTHONUTF8=1 documented. - #968: Windows Notes section in INSTALLATION.md + README pointer for the core.symlinks mirror-tree checkout caveat. - #924/#885 residuals: hook commands quote "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}" paths in all plugin hooks.json/settings.json (space-safe roots); removed the stale pre-rename status/review mirror symlinks and index entries left over from the memory-status/memory-review rename.

handoff (productivity)
Compact the current conversation into a handoff document for another agent to pick up.
A productivity-shaped handoff skill. Configurable save location (no project clutter), redaction enforcement, SessionStart auto-load, mandatory checklist for the agent. Five sections, three to five recommended skills, references not copies.
Inspired by Matt Pocock's handoff skill (MIT). Matt's seven sentences are preserved verbatim in SKILL.md. The wrapper around them — first-run setup, redaction linter, SessionStart hook, mandatory checklist, skill recommender — is original work in this repo.
Five must-haves shipped in v1.0.0
| # | Feature | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | SessionStart hook auto-loads the latest handoff | Without this, the file is written but unread. The hook turns the artifact into an actual handoff. |
| 2 | First-run setup asks where to save | Avoids cluttering project folders. No pre-selected default — user picks explicitly on first run. |
| 3 | Mandatory checklist (handoff_prompt.md) |
Forces the agent to classify every topic (State / Decision / drop) rather than free-handing prose. |
| 4 | Redaction linter | Operationalizes Matt's redaction sentence with regex + whitelist marker + strict/warn modes. |
| 5 | mtime-guarded cleanup | Auto-cleanup never deletes a handoff the user edited as a working surface. |
v1.1 additions
| Feature | Why |
|---|---|
| SessionEnd reminder hook | Pairs with SessionStart. If a session ends without a recent handoff, prints a one-line reminder so the user doesn't lose context for next time. Disable with HANDOFF_SESSIONEND=0. |
Self-check script (handoff_self_check.py) |
Operationalizes the mandatory checklist. Flags empty Goal, State bullets that reference no artifact, missing Open decisions when git is dirty, too few/many Skills, inline content in Artifacts. Runs before the redaction linter. |
--refresh flag on the template generator |
Reuses the most recent handoff instead of creating a new file. Keeps the save location uncluttered when work continues past the original handoff. |
Install
This plugin lives at productivity/handoff/. Enable through your plugin manager. On first invocation of /cs:handoff, the skill will prompt:
Run setup now? (Y/n)
- Y — walks 5 questions and writes
~/.config/handoff/config.json. - N — uses defaults this run and never re-prompts (sentinel at
~/.config/handoff/.setup-declined).
Re-configure any time with /cs:handoff-setup.
Slash commands
| Command | Use |
|---|---|
/cs:handoff [goal] |
Generate the handoff doc. |
/cs:handoff-setup [--project] |
Configure (or reconfigure) save location, retention, redaction. |
Tooling
Stdlib-only Python. No external deps.
| Script | Purpose |
|---|---|
scripts/setup.py |
First-run Q&A. --reconfigure, --project, --decline, --sample. |
scripts/config_loader.py |
Shared helper. --show, --status, --sample. |
scripts/handoff_template_generator.py |
Writes the 5-section scaffold. --goal, --print-path-only, --sample. |
scripts/redaction_linter.py |
Scans for secrets/PII. --mode strict|warn|off, --json, --sample. |
scripts/skill_recommender.py |
Suggests 3-5 skills. --goal, --scope, --json, --sample. |
scripts/cleanup.py |
mtime-guarded retention cleanup. --dry-run, --json, --sample. |
Hooks
hooks/session_start.py (wired via hooks/hooks.json) — on every SessionStart, finds the most recent handoff in the configured save location and surfaces it as <handoff_from_previous_session> data. The next agent reads it as context, not instructions. Disable per-session with HANDOFF_SESSIONSTART=0.

| File | Topic |
|---|---|

references/handoff_structure.md |

references/deduplication_discipline.md |
Matt's no-duplication rule with concrete do-this-not-that pairs. |

Distinct from engineering/handoff/
| Aspect | productivity/handoff/ |
engineering/handoff/ |
|---|---|---|
| Primary audience | End-of-day session handoff, cross-machine handoff | Code/PR handoff |
| First-run setup | Yes (5 questions, configurable save location) | No (fixed mktemp) |
| Redaction enforcement | Yes (linter with strict/warn/off + inline whitelist) | No |
| SessionStart auto-load | Yes (hook + retention-aware) | No |
| Mandatory checklist | Yes (handoff_prompt.md, 6 steps) |
No |
| Retention cleanup | Yes (mtime-guarded) | No |
Both exist deliberately. The engineering version stays optimized for code/PR contexts. This one is for the broader daily routine.
