Excerpt

Handover Skill Implementation Plan

For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (- [ ]) syntax for tracking.

Goal: Ship a global /handover skill + a global Stop hook that append dated, structured entries to a per-repo RepoHandover.md, so archived-session context is recoverable without grepping.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
