contents Skein lasagna modules are a recent tool developed for the study of 4-manifolds. We provide general formula for 1-, 2-, and 3-handle attachments for skein modules defined with any functorial link theory in $S^3 \times I$ generalizing existing formula of Chen, Manolescu-Neithalath, Manolescu-Walker-Wedrich, and Ren-Willis. These formula are derived from a complete description of the gluing homomorphism on skein modules. For this description, we introduce a variation of these skein modules in the presence of distinguished 3-manifolds in the boundary. A similar construction was recently introduced independently by Blackwell-Krushkal-Luo.
