Handover tools (17, 3 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • handover.annotateFree

    Add a durable comment anchored to selected text or lines in an immutable artifact revision. Read the artifact first and preserve the exact quote and surrounding context.

  • handover.annotationsFree

    Read revision-anchored file comments, selected text, status, authorship, and resolution metadata. Use status=open to find feedback that still needs action.

  • handover.assignFree

    Replace the open assignments with the supplied collaborator identities. This changes collaboration state, not the immutable handover revision.

  • handover.commentFree

    Append a discussion comment and optionally notify explicitly mentioned collaborators.

  • handover.continueFree

    Append an immutable revision after reading the current snapshot. expectedRevisionId is mandatory to prevent overwriting another collaborator's work. Omitted artifacts are inherited; matching names are replaced.

  • handover.createwrite actionFree

    Create durable shared context with an initial immutable revision. Authorship comes from the authenticated Handover identity.

  • handover.getFree

    Read a handover snapshot, continuation brief, artifact metadata, and revision history. Omit revisionId for the current snapshot.

  • handover.okf.exportFree

    Export a handover revision as an Open Knowledge Format bundle for another human or agent system.

  • handover.okf.importFree

    Import Open Knowledge Format files into a new immutable Handover revision. Replaying the same bundle is idempotent.

  • handover.publicationFree

    Read the stable report URL, entry file, access mode, and selected revision for a handover.

  • handover.publishwrite actionFree

    Create or update a stable /r/{slug}/ report projection of a Handover revision.

  • handover.pullFree

    Return the selected files of a published report with paths, hashes, media types, and UTF-8 or base64 content.

  • handover.read_artifactFree

    Read bounded artifact content after inspecting a handover. Text is returned as UTF-8 and binary content as base64; truncated results report that explicitly.

  • handover.searchFree

    Find current shared context with hybrid, semantic, or lexical retrieval across metadata and artifact content. Use an empty query to list recent handovers.

  • handover.threadFree

    Read comments, explicit mentions, assignments, and eligible collaborators without changing revision history.

  • handover.update_commentwrite actionFree

    Edit an authored comment, or resolve/reopen an annotation. Set resolvedRevisionId when a new handover revision addressed the feedback.

  • handover.whoamiFree

    Return the authenticated person or service agent, organization, workspace, role, and granted scopes. Call this before reading or publishing to confirm attribution and tenancy.

What the publisher says

From the Handover repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

Handover MCP

Move active work between Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, people, and service agents without losing decisions, files, history, or authorship.

Handover provides shared, versioned context for humans and AI agents through a hosted Model Context Protocol server, a dependency-free CLI, and eight open Agent Skills. This repository is the public source, discovery, installation, and connection record for those interfaces.

Research and evidence

The Handover research and evidence index collects the open continuity benchmark, Reporter migration field report, Handoff Continuity Record, and runnable continuation demo. Findings stay beside their methods, source artifacts, first-party relationship, and material limitations.

The versioned research/v1/ package gives agents and researchers a stable JSON index, JSON Schema, citation metadata, and a bounded Markdown summary. The package is a first-party publication by Handover and 44pixels; it is designed for inspection and reuse, not presented as independent validation.

  • Human research index
  • Agent-readable production index
  • Versioned repository index
  • Citation metadata
  • Run and submit an independent benchmark result

See a complete handoff

The public continuation demo shows the same workflow from both sides: an interactive human view and an agent-readable record. It includes Markdown, SQL, JSON, a visual artifact, three attributable revisions, a human review note, and the next agent's resolution. No account is required.

  • Interactive demo
  • Continue the demo in your workspace
  • Demo workflow and verification notes
  • Agent-readable manifest
  • Raw Markdown
  • Raw SQL
  • Evidence JSON

Build a private handoff prompt

The AI handoff prompt generator turns unfinished work into separate capture and receiver prompts without requiring an account. Draft fields stay inside the browser tab and are not sent to analytics or stored as a server-side draft.

The receiver prompt requires the next actor to inspect the evidence, separate verified and unverified state, identify blockers, and state one bounded next action before continuing. Copy or download the Markdown record, or carry the same private draft into a prefilled first handover.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
