Agent Handoff Note Between Two Tools

Write the message one agent passes to the next so work is not lost.

Added October 15, 2026. Written with AI assistance and checked for clarity and placeholders; not reviewed by a lawyer, accountant, clinician or other professional. How these prompts are made

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

Two agents work in sequence: the first does [FIRST_AGENT_JOB] and the second does [SECOND_AGENT_JOB]. Define the handoff message between them. Data that flows across: [DATA_PASSED]. Failure cases seen so far: [FAILURES].

Specify required fields, optional fields and what each must contain; a status value from a fixed list; a confidence note; a list of assumptions the first agent made; and a list of things it could not do. The second agent must reject a message missing required fields and say which are missing.

Return the message format as a template, three valid examples and two invalid ones with the reason each fails, and the instruction text for the receiving agent.

Also describe how to version the message format, so a change by one team does not silently break the other, and how to log every handoff with a timestamp so a failure can be traced to the step that caused it.
