A3 Handoff Canvas: Turn AI Delegation Into a Useful Workflow

The A3 Framework helps you decide whether AI should touch a task (Assist, Automate, Avoid). The A3 Handoff Canvas covers what teams often skip: how to run the handoff without losing quality or accountability. It is a six-part workflow contract for recurring AI use: task splitting, inputs, outputs, validation, failure response, and record-keeping. If you cannot write one part down, that is where errors and excuses will enter.

The Handoff Canvas closes a gap in a useful pattern: from an unstructured prompt to applying the A3 framework to documenting decisions with the A3 Handoff Canvas to creating transferable Skills, possibly leading to building agents.
