Security: Kyaa-A/handoff

Security

SECURITY.md

Security Policy

handoff is an agent skill and plugin. Alongside its instructions, it ships a startup update checker. The checker makes a best-effort HTTPS request to this repository's raw GitHub manifest, writes a version/timestamp cache only in the host-provided plugin data directory, and prints manual update commands. It does not download releases, install updates, modify the plugin directory, or read secrets.

Reporting a vulnerability

Please report security concerns privately to asnaripacalna@gmail.com rather than opening a public issue. Include:

  • a description of the issue and its impact,
  • the file and lines involved, and
  • steps to reproduce, if applicable.

Expect an initial response within a few days. Please allow a reasonable window to address the issue before any public disclosure.

In scope

  • Content in the skill or command files that could induce an agent to act unsafely, leak data, or write secrets into a handoff note.
  • Guidance that would cause handoff notes to be committed or shared when they should stay local.
  • Misleading or hidden instructions that could cause unsafe behavior in a tool-using agent.
  • Update-checker network, manifest-validation, cache, hook-command, and terminal-output vulnerabilities in scripts/check-update.mjs and hooks/.

A note on handoff contents

Handoff notes can contain local paths, in-progress reasoning, and project detail. The skill gitignores .handoffs/ by default for this reason. If you choose to commit notes for a team handoff, review them first the way you would any committed file: do not record secrets, tokens, or credentials in a note.

Out of scope

  • Vulnerabilities in Claude, Claude Code, or any host application that loads this skill: report those to their respective vendors.
  • General workflow disagreements; those are regular issues or PRs.

Supported versions

This project tracks a single line of development on main. Fixes land on main; there are no separately maintained release branches.
