Baton

Pass the baton between AI coding tools, teammates, and machines.

Git saves your code. Baton saves the context — the recent decisions and a project's rules (AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md / design docs) — and makes it portable across Claude Code, Codex, and Antigravity/Gemini.

• Pull recent work context, incrementally (only what's new since last time).
• Push your session + the project's rules as a shareable, attributed, secret-redacted bundle.
• Apply those rules to the next person's agent so onboarding is automatic.

Install

# As a CLI (requires Python 3)
npm install -g @e3o8o/baton

# As a skill
npx skills add e3o8o/baton

Use

baton --list                        # threads, shared bundles, recent sessions
baton --name <thread>               # pull a thread (incremental)
baton --shared                      # pull the team's bundles for this repo
baton --push --summary "EOD ..."    # wrap up: publish session + rules
baton --apply                       # configure this tool's agent from project rules

New machine / new teammate: baton --apply && baton --shared.
