AI Badger provides two skills that let a coding agent carry useful conversation state into Badger:

• handoff continues an active coding, debugging, planning, or architecture session in Badger.
• badger-review asks Badger for an independent review of work from the current session.

The skills save the current goal, recent decisions, constraints, completed work, and verification in a local .badger-handoff file. Badger then combines that session state with repository context it collects locally.

Install the Badger CLI first. See the installation guide.

Then install both bundled skills without network access:

badger skills install

Alternatively, install them through skills.sh:

npx skills add PVRLabs/aibadger

The skills and CLI are separate installs. Installing the skills does not install the badger command.

Ask your coding agent naturally. For example:

Hand this session off to Badger.

Or request an independent review:

Prepare this work for a Badger review.

The agent writes .badger-handoff in the current workspace and gives you the exact command to run in a separate terminal:

badger continue

Badger reads and removes the handoff file after accepting it, then prepares a prompt you can copy to the clipboard for use in a browser AI chat or another agent. See Continue from another AI coding session for the complete workflow.

The handoff file contains a compact summary of the current agent conversation. The skills do not inspect repository files, Git history, diffs, or project topology. Badger collects the repository context itself when it starts.
