# Marblo Manual Handoff
> Take over a task an agent couldn't handle and finish it yourself.
---
## ⛔ Required rule: Marblo MCP only
> **Never use the Claude Code built-in tools (TaskCreate, TaskList, TaskUpdate, TaskGet).**
> Task lookup/status-change/logging MUST use the **Marblo MCP tools**:
> `get_all_tasks`, `get_task_activities`, `update_task_status`, `claim_task`,
> `add_activity`, `submit_for_review`, `get_agent_skill`
---
## Steps
1. Use `get_all_tasks` to find FAILED, BLOCKED, or stale IN_PROGRESS tasks.
2. Check the target task's status:
- FAILED → revert to TODO(retry) with `update_task_status` → claim again
- BLOCKED → identify the blocking cause → resolve, then proceed
- IN_PROGRESS (stale) → an agent stalled. Check how far it got from the activity log
3. Use `get_task_activities` to see how far the agent worked.
4. Use `get_agent_skill` to load the skill file for that role.
5. Review the code the agent left and continue:
- If files already exist, continue on top of them
- If a test failed, fix it
- Fill in the missing parts
6. During work, record "Manual handoff: [what you did]" with `add_activity`.
7. When done, `submit_for_review` or mark DONE directly.
## Handoff criteria
- An agent FAILED the same task 3+ times → doing it yourself is faster
- Work that requires environment setup (API keys, external service integration)
- Complex work where the agent needs to modify files outside its scope
