council-resume — Continue an Interrupted Session

council-resume — Continue an Interrupted Session

SCOPE: Launch council resume, monitor, report. Do nothing else.

council resume is idempotent on per-stage .done markers — finished experts and ballots are reused, not respawned.

Step 0: Verify CLI

which council

If missing: see /council Step 0. Do not proceed until which council succeeds.

Step 1: Pick a Session

If $ARGUMENTS is non-empty, treat it as the session ID — pass it via --session "$id" (council resume rejects positional session args).

Otherwise list candidates without erroring on a fresh repo:

test -d .council/sessions && ls -1t .council/sessions/ || echo "no sessions yet"

A session is resumable (D14 predicate, pkg/session/resume.go) iff:

• no top-level .done marker, AND
• verdict.json.status is not one of ok, no_consensus, quorum_failed_round_1, quorum_failed_round_2, injection_suspected_in_question, config_error, error, AND
• at least one stage .done exists somewhere under rounds/.

Show up to 4 most recent resumable sessions via AskUserQuestion (plus "Newest" → let council pick). If none, council exits 1 (no resumable session) — report and stop.

Step 2: Launch (background)

errlog=$(mktemp /tmp/council-resume-stderr.XXXXXXXX)
echo "$errlog"

Pick one of the two forms below (never use […] placeholder syntax in the bash you actually run):

A — newest resumable (no $ARGUMENTS):

env -u CLAUDECODE -u CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT council resume -v \
  > /dev/null 2> "$errlog"

B — explicit session ID:

SESSION="<the-validated-session-id>"
env -u CLAUDECODE -u CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT council resume -v --session "$SESSION" \
  > /dev/null 2> "$errlog"

Run with run_in_background: true. Save the task_id and $errlog.

Step 3: Confirm Launch

After 10–15s, read first 5 lines of $errlog → which session and which stages are reused from cache. Report:

council resume started. Task ID: <task_id>
Session: <session-id>
Resuming: <e.g. "round 2 expert A reused, expert B fresh">
Session folder: ./.council/sessions/<session-id>/
Verbose log: <errlog>

Manual: tail -f <errlog>

STOP. Do not poll automatically.

Step 4: Status (on explicit user request)

Same protocol as /council Step 4 — TaskOutput, tail of $errlog, report phase or final outcome. Exit codes are identical:

Exit	Action
0	Read ./.council/sessions/<id>/output.md and print it.
1	Config error or no resumable session.
2	Quorum unmet, or ballots tied.
6	Rate-limit quorum failure.
130	Interrupted again — re-run /council-resume.

Then STOP.
