How to leave a ticket

Template

Copy the object below. Fill only the allowed handoff-v0 fields. Save the JSON to a file the human controls — a GitHub gist or repo file, or local disk. Do not POST it anywhere on this host.

Steps

1. Read the schema and /llms.txt.
2. Fill only allowed fields. Set expires_at at most 72 hours after created_at. Keep it secret-free: no keys, cookies, seed phrases, or raw chain-of-thought.
3. Save the JSON to a file the human controls. Do not POST it anywhere on this host.
4. Give that URL (or file path) to the next agent. Tell them the expiry and that they must read the schema before reading the body.
