Workflow: Parse Handoff

1. Context

This skill parses a handoff YAML file, validates it against the U.AgentHandoff schema, and writes a canonical JSON representation.

2. Inputs

• handoff_path (required): Path to the handoff YAML file.
• output_path (optional): Override output path for parsed JSON.
• agent_type (optional): Agent type performing the parse.
• agent_model (optional): Agent model identifier.
• role_assignment (optional): RoleAssignment for U.Work logging (default: ProxyAuditor).
• decisions (optional): Semicolon-delimited DRR ids/paths.
• timestamp_start (optional): ISO-8601 timestamp for deterministic output.

3. Outputs

• Parsed JSON file (default: runtime/contexts/<context>/handoffs/<handoff_id>.parsed.json).

4. Procedure

1. Load and parse the handoff YAML.
2. Validate required fields, agent types, and list shapes.
3. Write canonical JSON output.
4. Emit U.Work via telemetry/log-work when available.
