Shared References

Overview

This skill provides shared reference documents that are used across multiple Integrator Agent skills. It contains common patterns, protocols, and utilities that enable consistent behavior across the skill set.

Prerequisites

None required. This is a reference skill with no external dependencies.

Instructions

1. Identify the shared protocol or pattern needed for the current task
2. Review the relevant reference document from the list below
3. Apply the protocol or pattern to the agent workflow
4. Validate the implementation against the documented schema
5. Document any handoff or session state according to the standard format

Checklist

Copy this checklist and track your progress:

• Identify the shared protocol or pattern needed
• Review the relevant reference document
• Apply the protocol or pattern to the workflow
• Validate implementation against documented schema
• Document handoff or session state in standard format
• Verify all required fields are present in handoff payload
• Ensure datetime fields use ISO 8601 format

Output

Output Type	Format	Description
Handoff Payload	JSON	Structured agent handoff with context and state
Session State	JSON	Current session state snapshot for continuity
Coordination Protocol	JSON	Multi-agent workflow coordination structure

Reference Documents

Handoff Protocols (references/handoff-protocols.md)

Standard protocols for handing off work between agents:

• When you need to transfer context between agents → Handoff Format
• If you need to document session state → Session State Schema
• When coordinating multi-agent workflows → Coordination Patterns

Examples

Example 1: Agent Handoff Format

{
  "handoff_type": "task_delegation",
  "from_agent": "orchestrator",
  "to_agent": "code-reviewer",
  "context": {
    "pr_number": 123,
    "repository": "owner/repo",
    "task": "Review code changes"
  },
  "session_state": {
    "files_reviewed": [],
    "comments_made": []
  }
}

Example 2: Session State Schema

{
  "session_id": "sess_abc123",
  "started_at": "2025-01-30T10:00:00Z",
  "current_phase": "review",
  "completed_tasks": ["fetch_pr", "analyze_diff"],
  "pending_tasks": ["post_review"]
}

Error Handling

Issue: Handoff context incomplete

Cause: Required fields missing from handoff payload.

Solution: Validate handoff against schema before sending. Required fields: handoff_type, from_agent, to_agent, context.

Issue: Session state deserialization fails

Cause: Invalid JSON or schema mismatch.

Solution: Validate JSON structure and ensure all datetime fields use ISO 8601 format.
