Session Handoff Skill for Claude Code and Codex
Prevent context loss between Claude Code, Codex or Cursor sessions with an evidence-based handoff of shipped work, blockers and next actions.
Leave the next agent a compact, evidence-backed state record instead of a long transcript or an optimistic summary.
A useful handoff distinguishes completed work, unresolved findings, parked ideas and the exact next action. It points to files and evidence so another session can verify the state quickly.
Who this guide is for
Long coding tasks, agent changes, interrupted work and projects where context must survive beyond one chat window.
- Record what actually shipped and how it was verified.
- Keep blockers separate from optional follow-up ideas.
- Resume with one concrete next action and the files required to perform it.

A practical workflow
Collect evidence
Record changed files, live URLs, test results, receipts and the current external state rather than relying on memory.
Separate the state
List shipped work, unresolved issues, parked ideas and risks in distinct sections with no ambiguous completion claims.
Name the next action
End with one executable step, its prerequisites and the exact files or commands needed to continue.
Where this approach stops
Keep this boundary visible
Do not paste an entire conversation and call it a handoff. The recipient needs verified state, decisions and navigation, not every intermediate thought.
Questions before you choose
Can a handoff move work between different agents?
Yes. The format is designed to stay useful across Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other compatible environments.
How is this different from project memory?
A handoff captures the current transition state. Project Second Brain provides deterministic retrieval across a larger local corpus.
