A visual command grammar for working with agents. Move across a key and watch the prompt, operating path and human boundary change.

CoordinateHANDOFF
Transfer work with context, status and responsibility intact.

Loose request
Pass this to Finance when you are done.

After the commercial draft is ready, handoff the objective, evidence, work completed, current status, unresolved decisions and recommended next action to Finance. Handoff back to me if pricing or legal terms require judgement.
These are precise natural-language patterns, not magic syntax. Tool permissions and approval policy still apply.

Behaviour change

A handoff becomes a complete transfer of responsibility rather than a forwarded artifact with missing context.

Human boundary

The receiving agent or person gets only the context and authority needed for their part.

Jary Academy

A possibility becomes useful when you can direct it.

Start with a real working moment, then use the Playbook to decide what the agent should know, who owns the next move and where human judgement returns.
