session-management
Manage agent sessions including initialization, handoffs, revival (seance), and persistent identity for Polecats and Crew agents.
Best use case
session-management is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Manage agent sessions including initialization, handoffs, revival (seance), and persistent identity for Polecats and Crew agents.
Teams using session-management should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Session Management ## Overview Manage agent sessions in Gas Town: initialize new sessions, handle handoffs between agents, revive dead sessions (seance), and maintain persistent identity across ephemeral Polecat sessions. ## When to Use - Initializing new agent sessions - Handing off work between agents - Reviving a dead or stuck agent session - Managing Polecat identity persistence across sessions ## Session Operations 1. **Init**: Start new session with role and hook setup 2. **Attach**: Connect agent to Mayor for coordination 3. **Handoff**: Transfer work between agents with context 4. **Seance**: Revive a dead agent's session state 5. **Resume**: Continue from last checkpoint ## Agent Session Types - **Crew**: Long-lived sessions, full state persistence - **Polecat**: Ephemeral sessions, persistent identity, state via hooks - **Dog**: Infrastructure sessions, minimal state ## Key Commands - `gt mayor attach` - Attach to Mayor coordination - `gt handoff` - Hand off work to another agent - `gt seance` - Revive dead session - `gt prime` - Prime agent with context ## Tool Use Used within agent coordination and patrol monitoring processes.
