What it does

Sessions is an agent skill from haacked/dotfiles. Show every live local Claude Code session and background agent in one table, grouped by what each one needs next (needs you, Claude can continue, waiting on something outside, blocked on another session, done, stale) with a one-line next step. Use when the user asks which sessions need them, what their sessions are doing, or runs /sessions. With --act, offers to tell the sessions that can continue on their own to continue.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts. Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code (or similar products)

It sits in Development. The repository describes itself as: My dotfiles and scripts I use on dev machines.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks which sessions need them
  • What their sessions are doing

Example prompts

  • “/sessions”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code (or similar products)

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Gather
  2. Busy sessions
  3. Bucket the rest
  4. Print
  5. Act (--act only)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2d00b66. 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
    • gh

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and gh, 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.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code (or similar products)

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Sessions loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 109 tokens; SKILL.md has 995 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~109
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 995 words (~1,741 tokens).

“Answers one question: which of my Claude sessions need me, and what is the next step for each?”
