Read-only snapshot of right now; no file writes (progress-report covers history). The one exception is §4, through handoff-auto.

1. Gather

• Running: every background Bash/PowerShell, Monitor, and background Agent launched this session without a completion notification yet. Per task: age + last line of its output file. ListAgents → note peers that look stalled.
• Git, for each repo this session ran git in (not only the cwd's), per git worktree list entry: git status --porcelain plus git status --porcelain --ignored -- skilleddocs <handoff folder> (excluded handoffs; folder per AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md, if set). Unpushed = git log <ref>.. --oneline, <ref> = @{u}, else origin/<branch> if it exists, else origin/<default> (<default> per the handoff-auto skill's TRACKING.md); never local <default> (on <default> it hides everything). No such ref → unpushed "unknown", counted as unpushed. 0 commits and clean → nothing to push; commits and no origin/<branch> → "never pushed". git symbolic-ref -q HEAD fails → detached: say "detached at <sha>"; git for-each-ref --contains HEAD refs/heads refs/remotes prints nothing → its commits are on no branch (lost on switch or worktree removal): NOT SAFE, and the fix is git switch -c <name>, never "push". Local branches not checked out: same unpushed rule (git for-each-ref refs/heads --format='%(refname:short) %(upstream:short) %(upstream:track)'); list each with commits.
• PRs: gh pr list -R <o>/<r> --author @me --json number,title,url,isDraft,statusCheckRollup (<o>/<r> per the next skill's BOARD.md, Target repo section; on a fork also -R <parent>, where its PRs land) → passing / failing / pending.
• Asked vs done: each distinct ask in this conversation → done / in progress / not started.
• Needs you: keys, approvals, manual steps, unanswered questions. "none" if none.

2. Verdict

SAFE only when nothing runs and nothing is dirty or unpushed, or the mid-flight work is covered by a handoff: committed + pushed, or saved on disk per TRACKING.md: untracked, skilleddocs/ excluded (the only option on forks), or a dated handoff held uncommitted on a task branch in commit mode. That held file isn't dirty; never suggest committing it. Cover is for the work the handoff describes; other dirty/unpushed code still needs commit/push or a mention in the handoff. Commits on no branch are never covered.

An untracked handoff dies with its worktree: NOT SAFE if that worktree is not the main one (first git worktree list entry) or was created this session via pair/meta-orchestrator, or if unsure it survives. Reason names the handoff path: move it out or keep the worktree.

Else NOT SAFE + each reason.

3. Output (≤10 lines, no preamble, drop empty lines)

Running: 2 background (12m, "tests passing") | 1 agent pending
Git: 3 worktrees, 1 dirty, 1 unpushed (feat/x, 2 commits)
PRs: #12 passing | #14 CI failing
Asked → done: 4/5 (in progress: <what>)
Needs you: <item>
Verdict: NOT SAFE — stop feat/x's shell and push first

4. On "close" / "stop them"

1. List exactly what will stop (task ids, agents) and anything that would be committed or pushed.
2. Act on an explicit yes only; anything vaguer → repeat the list.
3. TaskStop each (no tool → tell the user how).
4. Commit or push only if the yes named that too.
5. Mid-flight work → handoff-auto, print its path. Earns SAFE on forks and untracked repos too (§2 caveats apply).
