Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
1 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by vinvcn on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Claude Handoff AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/vinvcn/mattpocock-skills-zh-CN.git /tmp/mattpocock-skills-zh-CN
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/mattpocock-skills-zh-CN/skills/in-progress/claude-handoff .claude/skills/claude-handoff

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Claude Handoff in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Claude Handoff on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Claude Handoff is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

为当前对话写一份 handoff summary，让一个全新的 agent 可以继续工作。不要把它保存下来，而是启动一个以这份 summary 作为 prompt 的 background agent：claude --bg --name "<descriptive name>" "<handoff summary>"。它会在当前工作目录中启动并立即返回；用户用 claude agents 管理它。

始终带上 -n/--name 并给出描述性名称（例如 --name "Fix login bug"）——它设置显示名称，会出现在 job list、session picker 和 terminal title 中。

在 summary 中包含一个 "suggested skills" section，推荐 agent 应当调用的 skills。

不要重复其它 artifacts（PRDs、plans、ADRs、issues、commits、diffs）中已经记录的内容，改为用 path 或 URL 引用它们。

删去任何敏感信息，例如 API keys、passwords 或个人身份信息——这份 summary 会成为 agent 的 prompt。

如果用户传入了 arguments，把它们当作对下一个 session 重点的描述，并据此调整 summary。

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Claude Handoff AI skill do?

把当前对话交接给一个全新的 background agent，让它立即接手工作。

Why use Claude Handoff on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Claude Handoff is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Claude Handoff in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/vinvcn/mattpocock-skills-zh-CN/tree/main/skills/in-progress/claude-handoff. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Claude Handoff?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Claude Handoff?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Claude Handoff with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Claude Handoff AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by vinvcn under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
