Announce at start: "I'm using the handoff-list skill to show available handoffs."
When to Use
- When starting a session and unsure if handoffs exist
- When you want to review past handoff history
- Before using
superpowers-ruby:handoff-resumeto see what's available
The Process
Step 1: Scan Handoff Directories
# Active handoffs
ls docs/handoffs/*.md 2>/dev/null
# Archived handoffs
ls docs/handoffs/_archive/*.md 2>/dev/null
Step 2: Parse Frontmatter
For each file found, read the YAML frontmatter to extract: created, topic, branch, trigger, restored.
Step 3: Display Table
Present results with active (unrestored) handoffs first, then archived, sorted by date descending:
## Active Handoffs
| Date | Topic | Branch | Trigger |
|------|-------|--------|---------|
| 2026-04-14 | handoff-skill | lg/handoff | manual |
## Archived Handoffs
| Date | Topic | Branch | Trigger | Restored At |
|------|-------|--------|---------|-------------|
| 2026-04-13 | auth-refactor | fix/auth | compact | 2026-04-13T15:30:00 |
If no handoffs exist:
No handoff documents found in docs/handoffs/ or docs/handoffs/_archive/.
Use `/superpowers-ruby:handoff` to create one.
Step 4: Offer Next Action
If active handoffs exist, offer:
"Would you like to resume from one of the active handoffs? Use
/superpowers-ruby:handoff-resume."
