sessions-save

A checkpoint command that saves the current coding-agent session to a database without clearing the conversation. A checkpoint is a saved record of progress that can be used later.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you want to save the current session and receive its saved session ID.
Why use it?
It preserves work in progress so the session can be resumed or referenced after the current interaction.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

sessions-save 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

Run this command to save the current session to the database:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/dist/cli.js" save

Show the full output to the user.

  • If it prints ✅ Session saved: <id>, report the session ID and confirm the session is saved.
  • If it prints ⚠️ No session log found, advise the user that the session may be too new or no activity has been recorded yet. They can try again after more work has been done.
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
