Save Task List for Reuse
Save the current session's task list so it can be restored in future sessions.
Session Context
- Session ID: ${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}
- Active task directories: !
ls -1t ~/.claude/tasks/ 2>/dev/null | head -5 || echo "none found" - Current tasks in session: !
ls -1t ~/.claude/tasks/ 2>/dev/null | head -1 | xargs -I{} ls ~/.claude/tasks/{} 2>/dev/null | head -10 || echo "no tasks"
Instructions
-
Find the current task list ID by checking
~/.claude/tasks/for the most recently modified directory. List the directories sorted by modification time. -
Verify the match — read the task files inside the directory and compare them to any tasks you know about from this session. Confirm you have the correct task list.
-
Log the session mapping — write the mapping to
.claude/archon/sessions/:mkdir -p .claude/archon/sessions echo '{"session": "${CLAUDE_SESSION_ID}", "task_list": "<TASK_LIST_ID>", "saved_at": "'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'"}' \ >> .claude/archon/sessions/task-lists.jsonl -
