What it does

Mpm Session Pause is an agent skill from bobmatnyc/claude-mpm. Pause session and save current work state for later resume

Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Git worktrees. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Claude Multi-Agent Project Manager — multi-channel orchestration, GitHub-first SDK mode, and plugin system for Claude.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Git worktrees

Example prompts

  • “/mpm-session-pause”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Captures current work state (todos, git status, context summary)
  2. Creates session files at .claude-mpm/sessions/session-{timestamp}.* (project-local)
  3. Updates .claude-mpm/sessions/LATEST-SESSION.txt pointer
  4. Prunes stale git worktrees under /.claude/worktrees/ (see below)
  5. Shows the session file path for later resume

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 25203d3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Mpm Session Pause loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 19 tokens; SKILL.md has 731 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~19
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 731 words (~1,982 tokens).

“Pause the current session and save all work state for later resume.”
