session-guard
From the author
Use when working on complex multi-step tasks, when a session is getting long (40+ tool calls), when the agent starts ignoring rules it followed earlier, when conventions drift, when output quality seems to degrade, or after any context compaction event. Prevents long-session corruption AND context compaction amnesia through behavioral self-enforcement.

- context-engineeringaddyosmani/agent-skillsOptimizes agent context setup. Use when starting a new session, when agent output quality degrades, when switching between tasks, or when you need to configure rules files and context for a project.Productivity★ 109.1K
- session-compaction-and-restoremvschwarz/openrigUse when reasoning about what survives compaction/context-loss/restart/seat-refresh, designing a high-fidelity restore packet, or distinguishing native runtime resume vs fork vs artifact-backed mental-model rebuild. Covers the 4 failure modes that prevent honest restore (compacted seat drops hot potato; restore packet preserves details but loses product intent; runtime resume mistaken for handover or fork; rebuilt seat starts with stale instructions).Productivity★ 8K
- retiring-and-inheriting-a-seatmvschwarz/openrigUse when you are a sitting agent near your context threshold (~85%) and a PLANNED seat transition is due — retire deliberately and hand your seat to a fresh successor primed from a packet, rather than let compaction degrade you. Covers the handover packet, the append-only lineage ledger (one row per tenure), physical-seat continuity, the do-not-over-inherit framing, the optional warm-handoff window, and wake-v0 (consulting a retired predecessor). NOT for unplanned compaction/crash recovery (session-compaction-and-restore / claude-compaction-restore) and NOT the seat-binding primitive mechanics (seat-continuity-and-handover).Planning★ 8K
- cognee-improve-sessionstopoteretes/cogneeUse when working with cognee's session memory or improve() — storing conversation turns, agent traces and feedback with session_id, bridging sessions into the permanent graph, reading an ImproveResult, understanding why an improve stage was skipped, already_completed or lock_held, or tuning the IMPROVE_* settings.Productivity★ 32.6K
- nemo-rl-session-memoryNVIDIA/skillsManage durable working-session memory for coding agents. Use when a user asks to preserve or recover agent context across disconnects, VS Code restarts, long-running work, handoffs, or any session where important state should be written periodically under the repo's session directory. Do NOT use for: simple questions, short tasks, one-off commands, linting, or code review.Productivity★ 3.7K
- session-investigatorevalstate/fast-agentInvestigate fast-agent session and history files to diagnose issues. Use when a session ended unexpectedly, when debugging tool loops, when correlating sub-agent traces with main sessions, or when analyzing conversation flow and timing. Covers session.json metadata, history JSON format, message structure, tool call/result correlation, and common failure patterns.Finance★ 3.9K
