Apply Turbo Handoffs

Audits the self-improve lesson handoffs in `.turbo/handoff/`, applies the ones you approve, then cleans up, commits, and updates the installed Turbo skills.

AutomationAdvanced★ 405⑂ 32AI score 6/10Last updated: Sep 29, 2026

What it does

  • Reads every file in .turbo/handoff/, separating lesson proposals from handoffs that merely carry in-flight session work (those are left untouched and named).
  • Audits each lesson on five axes — gap still real, diagnosis correct, remedy fits conventions, project-specific details stripped, benefit vs. firing frequency — and returns a verdict of apply, apply adjusted, or drop with reasoning.
  • After your approval, runs /create-skill per approved lesson, deletes consumed handoffs (or trims only the resolved lessons), then chains /stage-commit-push and /update-turbo.
  • Tracks all six steps with TaskCreate/TaskList and exits cleanly when there is nothing to commit.

Who it's for

  • Maintainers of the turbo repo (or a fork) who regularly merge lessons collected from other projects.
  • Anyone who prefers generalizing an existing rule over piling on special cases.
  • Teams studying human-in-the-loop automation patterns: audit → approve → apply → commit.

Examples

  1. "read the handoff files and let me know what you think" → get per-lesson verdicts, tweak a couple, then approve.
  2. "process the turbo handoffs" → approved lessons land in the skills, held-back ones stay in their file, changes are committed and pushed.
  3. Empty queue → it reports "No lesson handoffs in .turbo/handoff/" and marks the remaining steps complete.

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the .claude/skills/apply-turbo-handoffs folder from the GitHub repo tobihagemann/turbo into my ~/.claude/skills/apply-turbo-handoffs/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/tobihagemann/turbo.git /tmp/turbo && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/turbo/.claude/skills/apply-turbo-handoffs ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/tobihagemann/turbo.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r turbo/.claude/skills/apply-turbo-handoffs ~/.claude/skills/
  5. This skill depends on companion skills (/create-skill, /stage-commit-push, /update-turbo) and claude/SKILL-CONVENTIONS.md, so installing the full turbo setup is recommended.
  6. Restart Claude Code and, from inside the turbo repo, try: "review the lesson handoffs".
