Introduction

auto-handoff blocks new tool calls at a threshold, has Haiku write a structured handoff brief to disk, runs /clear, and seeds the fresh session with one line pointing at the brief. An AbovePrompt panel shows each step; an optional viewer serves briefs on host:port. Only local --plugin-dir / CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_DIRS install is documented, so install is omitted. Scores follow the site calibration table. Not run-tested. Preview is illustrative.

Who it is for

  • People who prefer structured handoffs over auto-compact summaries
