save-handoff

Original：🇺🇸 English
Translated

Save a concise handoff summary only when the user explicitly requests it. Use this for resumable progress notes in generic agent environments where a real session importer is not guaranteed.

Save Handoff

Persist a compact resumable handoff when the user wants a restart point, summary, or checkpoint.

When to Use

Only activate when user explicitly says:
  • "Save a handoff"
  • "Checkpoint this"
  • "Leave me a summary"
  • "Remember where we are"
Never auto-save or suggest saving. This is always user-initiated.

Why This Is A Handoff

This reusable package works across many agents. It must not pretend to have a real transcript importer when the runtime may not provide one.
So this skill creates a structured handoff summary with 
nmem t create
instead of claiming a lossless thread save.
If the user's tool has a dedicated Nowledge integration with real thread import, prefer that native package instead.

Usage

Create a structured handoff thread:
bash
nmem --json t create   -t "Session Handoff - <topic>"   -c "Goal: ... Decisions: ... Files: ... Risks: ... Next: ..."   -s generic-agent

Handoff Format

Include these fields:
  • Goal
  • Decisions
  • Files
  • Risks
  • Next

Response Format

After successful save:
✓ Handoff saved
Title: {title}
Summary: {content}
Thread ID: {thread_id}
Never present this as a real transcript import.
