model-handoff

Maintain a HANDOFF.md file in the workspace so context survives seamlessly when switching between LLM models (e.g. Claude → GPT → Gemini). Use when the user says they are switching models, asks how to preserve context across model switches, wants to save tokens by rotating models, or asks how a new model can pick up where the last one left off. Also use proactively during long sessions to keep HANDOFF.md current.
