What is resume-session?

A command that loads a saved coding-session file so work can continue with the context from where the previous session ended.

Use it to resume the latest session, find a session from a particular date, or load a specific session file.

It avoids having to reconstruct earlier decisions and progress after starting a new session.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00026	$0.01331
Opus 5	$0.00013	$0.00665
Sonnet 5	$0.00005	$0.00266
Haiku 4.5	$0.00003	$0.00133

Measured 6d ago against content hash 73983070d7e4, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-09-09, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

resume-session scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

Resume Session Command

Load the last saved session state and orient fully before doing any work. This command is the counterpart to /save-session.

When to Use

Starting a new session to continue work from a previous day
After starting a fresh session due to context limits
When handing off a session file from another source (just provide the file path)
Any time you have a session file and want Claude to fully absorb it before proceeding

Usage

/resume-session                                                      # loads most recent file in ~/.claude/session-data/
/resume-session 2024-01-15                                           # loads most recent session for that date
/resume-session ~/.claude/session-data/2024-01-15-abc123de-session.tmp  # loads a current short-id session file
/resume-session ~/.claude/sessions/2024-01-15-session.tmp               # loads a specific legacy-format file

Process

Step 1: Find the session file

If no argument provided:

Check ~/.claude/session-data/
Pick the most recently modified *-session.tmp file

If the folder does not exist or has no matching files, tell the user:

No session files found in ~/.claude/session-data/
Run /save-session at the end of a session to create one.

Then stop.

If an argument is provided:

If it looks like a date (YYYY-MM-DD), search ~/.claude/session-data/ first, then the legacy ~/.claude/sessions/, for files matching YYYY-MM-DD-session.tmp (legacy format) or YYYY-MM-DD-<shortid>-session.tmp (current format) and load the most recently modified variant for that date
If it looks like a file path, read that file directly
If not found, report clearly and stop

Step 2: Read the entire session file

Read the complete file. Do not summarize yet.

Step 3: Confirm understanding

Respond with a structured briefing in this exact format:

SESSION LOADED: [actual resolved path to the file]
════════════════════════════════════════════════

PROJECT: [project name / topic from file]

WHAT WE'RE BUILDING:
[2-3 sentence summary in your own words]

CURRENT STATE:
PASS: Working: [count] items confirmed
 In Progress: [list files that are in progress]
 Not Started: [list planned but untouched]

WHAT NOT TO RETRY:
[list every failed approach with its reason — this is critical]

OPEN QUESTIONS / BLOCKERS:
[list any blockers or unanswered questions]

NEXT STEP:
[exact next step if defined in the file]
[if not defined: "No next step defined — recommend reviewing 'What Has NOT Been Tried Yet' together before starting"]

════════════════════════════════════════════════
Ready to continue. What would you like to do?

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
