SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Full restart orchestration of a Claude session by executing a complete shutdown sequence and signaling a clean reboot for a fresh start.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Orchestrates the 11-step /shutdown sequence (audit → edges → handoff → externalize) to reset the session.
  • Verifies handoff landed by checking Desktop file, DB content, and central index pointer, then reports final status.
  • Signals completion only after successful verification, preventing forced closure and ensuring safe reboot.

Quick Start

Initiate a full restart by running the /shutdown sequence and signaling the session end to boot a clean next session.

Frequently Asked Questions about restart

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I safely shut down and restart a Claude session without losing context?▼

Session restart is automated by executing an 11-step shutdown sequence that audits edges, verifies handoff across Desktop files and DB content, and signals a clean reboot only after successful validation.

What does a clean session reboot sequence include for interactive workflows?▼

A clean session reboot orchestrates audit, edge verification, handoff, and externalization steps to fully reset the session, ensuring all context is safely externalized before signaling completion.

How do I verify session handoff before closing an interactive Claude session?▼

Session handoff verification checks that context landed across three required locations: the Desktop file, DB content, and the central index pointer, reporting final status before allowing closure.

Can I force close a Claude session without running the full shutdown sequence?▼

Forced closure is prevented by enforcing the full 11-step shutdown sequence, which ensures handoff validation and externalization are complete before signaling a safe reboot preparation.

When do I need to perform a full session shutdown and reboot?▼

A full session shutdown and reboot is needed when an interactive Claude session requires a fresh start, ensuring all workflow state is externalized and handoff is verified before resetting.

What is the best way to automate session management for clean restarts?▼

Automating session management for clean restarts is best handled by orchestrating the complete shutdown sequence, validating handoff across required locations, and signaling completion only after successful reboot preparation.
