respawn
Skill53 starsChanged 20 days agoNo licenceView on GitHub
Restart the current Claude Code or Codex CLI in its own terminal (iTerm2 window or tmux pane), or the current Claude Code background session (claude --bg / ←, no terminal), and resume a session — the external relaunch step an agent cannot perform on itself. Use when: (1) the session's context is nearly full and was just stripped with session-stripper, so the stripped pending copy must be swapped in (--swap) and the CLI restarted to load the smaller transcript, (2) resuming a forked stripped session under a new session id, (3) the user or the agent says respawn, restart yourself, restart the CLI, reload the session, or resume after strip. Backends: iTerm2 (macOS), tmux (works headless, e.g. Linux servers) and Claude Code background sessions.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈3
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
No licence file, so all rights are reserved — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
