A CLEAN HANDOFF BETWEEN AGENTS

1. Start with the current goal, repository and exact branch or revision. Include only the files the next agent needs.
2. Separate confirmed findings from assumptions. Link file locations, commands and actual check output.
3. State what changed, what is still broken and the next action. Assign one owner for each editing area.
4. Keep credentials, private customer data and unnecessary chat history out of shared notes. Use sample values in examples.

Goal: [outcome]
Working state: [repo, branch, revision]
Confirmed findings: [evidence and file locations]
Changes made: [files and reasons]
Checks: [command and actual result]
Unresolved: [question or failure]
Next owner/action: [name and task]
Do not edit: [areas owned elsewhere]

1. Ask the receiving agent to restate its task, then report the outcome against the original goal.
2. Archive the final decision in the project documentation so the scratchpad is not the only record.
