Conversation Handoff MCP vs Mindmap MCP Server

handoff_save

Save a conversation handoff for later retrieval. Use this to pass conversation context to another AI or project. ## Long conversations (>~100KB) If the conversation is large, **save the first chunk with this tool**, then call `handoff_append` repeatedly with the remaining chunks. Doing one giant `handoff_save` can fail with an XML parse / tool-input error because Claude Code encodes tool arguments as XML internally and very large strings can break that encoding. ## Format Selection - **structured** (default): Organize content using the template below. Much faster — reduces output tokens to ~5-20% of the original conversation. Best for most handoffs. - **verbatim**: Save the complete word-for-word conversation. Use only when exact wording matters (e.g., legal text, precise error messages). ## Structured Template (for format="structured") ``` ## Key Decisions - [Decision]: [Rationale] ## Implementation Details [What was built/changed, with relevant code snippets] ## Code Changes [Files modified with brief description] ## Open Issues - [Issue]: [Status/Context] ## Next Steps - [ ] Action item ``` Omit sections that don't apply. Add custom sections if needed.

handoff_list

List all saved handoffs with summaries. Returns lightweight metadata without full conversation content. Opens interactive UI if supported.
