What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.
-
baton
Use when handing off an in-progress session to another agent or a future session — ending a session with unfinished work, "pick up where I left off", passing a task to a fresh agent/another window/codex, running low on context, or persisting intent + learnings before context is lost. Covers both dropping a baton (writing the handoff) and grabbing one (resuming from it).

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
