What changed

  • Renames the README H1 from portable-handoff to Agent Handoff.
  • Moves portability into the subtitle: "Portable, file-backed handoffs for Codex, Claude, and other coding agents."
  • Updates visible README prose to use Agent Handoff as the product name while leaving skill commands, file paths, installer behavior, and repository structure unchanged.

Why

The project is easier to understand when the title leads with the user-facing job: agent handoff. Portability remains an important benefit, but it reads better as supporting copy than as the primary name.

Validation

  • git diff --check
  • bash -n install.sh
  • ./install.sh both --home "$tmp" --mode copy
  • verified Codex and Claude skill files were installed in the temporary home
  • ./install.sh codex --home "$tmp" --mode symlink
  • verified both Codex skill installs were symlinks

Notes

This replaces the noisy PR #8 with a clean branch from current origin/master; the diff is only the README product-name refactor.

The visitor-facing name should lead with the problem users recognize: agent handoff. Portability remains in the subtitle as a benefit instead of dominating the title.

Constraint: Keep skill commands and repository mechanics unchanged
Rejected: Rename files or skill identifiers | the request is product copy, not a command/API change
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Tested: git diff --check; bash -n install.sh; copy install into temporary Codex and Claude homes; symlink install into temporary Codex home
Not-tested: GitHub rendered README preview
