Handoff: Create

The user is usually in the middle of one task and has stumbled onto a second thing worth doing later. This skill captures that second thing into a file so they can keep going on the first task without losing context.

The whole point is to be quick and non-disruptive. Save the handoff, confirm in one or two lines, and let the user return to what they were doing. Do not start solving the parked task — that is what handoff-invoke is for later.

Where the file goes

Handoffs live in a .handoffs/ directory in the root of the current project (the working directory the user is operating in — in practice almost always a project repo). Create the directory if it does not exist.

Files are named handoff-NNNN.md with a zero-padded 4-digit number.
