| description | Create a concise handoff for another agent to continue the current conversation. Use when the user asks to hand off, continue in a new thread/session, compact the current work, prepare a continuation prompt, save a handoff document, or send context to another Codex thread. |
Write a compact handoff so another agent can continue the current work.
If the user names a destination, asks to continue in a new thread, or asks for a Codex handoff, use Codex thread-management tools instead of writing a file. Search for the relevant thread tool first, create or target the thread, and send the handoff as the initial prompt/message. Include the required ::created-thread{...} directive after successful thread creation.
