session-management

This Claude Code skill manages agent sessions within the Gas Town framework, enabling initialization of new sessions, coordination handoffs between agents, and revival of inactive sessions while preserving agent identity. Use it when setting up agent workflows, transferring work between different agents, recovering from failed sessions, or maintaining persistent identity across ephemeral Polecat agent instances.

- Handing off work between agents
- Reviving a dead or stuck agent session

3. **Handoff**: Transfer work between agents with context
4. **Seance**: Revive a dead agent's session state

## Agent Session Types

- **Crew**: Long-lived sessions, full state persistence
- **Polecat**: Ephemeral sessions, persistent identity, state via hooks
- **Dog**: Infrastructure sessions, minimal state

## Key Commands

- `gt mayor attach` - Attach to Mayor coordination
- `gt handoff` - Hand off work to another agent
- `gt seance` - Revive dead session
