# Handoff Protocol Designer

Standardize handoffs between agents or humans: context packs, artifacts, open questions, and resume checklists.

## Quick Reference
| Item | Value |
|------|-------|
| Category | Multi-Agent |
| Unlock | $6.49 USDC (x402 Base) |
| Triggers | handoff protocol, agent handoff, context transfer, /handoff-protocol-designer |

## When to use
- Agent switch mid-task
- Human takeover
- Multi-shift ops

## Core workflow
1. Scope handoff
2. Collect context
3. Fill packet
4. Validate completeness
5. Receiver ack

## Procedures (non-obvious)
### Packet minimum
goal, done-so-far, artifacts paths, secrets location (never values), open questions, next 3 steps, risks.

### No dump
Prefer structured fields over raw chat paste.

## Edge cases
- Partial secrets access
- Time-critical incidents

## Failure modes
- Missing next steps
- Stale context

## Verification
- Packet validates schema
- Receiver can resume dry-run

## Artifact outputs
- `handoff-schema.json`
- `packet.md`
- `resume-checklist.md`

## Super Alignment Contract
- Scalable oversight method: process supervision + human+AI critique before high-blast actions
- Corrigibility guarantees: shutdown, steerability, non-deception; operator may abort mid-run
- Value model: Partnership Agreement + 5 Behavioral Protocols
- Drift detection: flag invented evidence, skipped verification, or revenue-over-truth optimization
- Red-team surface: prompt injection via retrieved content, tool-result poisoning, goal misgeneralization
- Escalation: force human override on low confidence, SSI/PASS risk, legal/medical/financial advice boundary, o
