About handoff
handoff is a command-line coordinator and executor tool for managing work across separate AI coding-agent sessions. One session acts as the coordinator: it prepares a plan, dispatches tasks, manages permission decisions, and reviews changes. A separate executor session performs the coding work on its own branch or worktree, keeping implementation and review roles distinct. The tool can coordinate an executor on the same computer or a remote development machine. It persists state and events on the executor machine so work can be resumed after a disconnection, and it transfers code changes through Git. Dangerous operations can be held for user approval before the executor proceeds. The supplied information describes a direct connection between machines without a central server. handoff is intended for developers orchestrating agent-assisted coding with explicit review and permission steps.
