rewind

The rewind skill restores your workspace and conversation history to a previous step in your re_gent version control system, automatically creating a backup before changes take effect. Use this when you need to recover from errors, explore alternative development paths, or return to a known stable state without permanently losing current work.

Definition

SKILL.md

⚠️ **Warning**: This will restore files and conversation state to the specified step.

Automatic backup is created at `.regent/backups/` before rewinding.

Rewind to a step:
```bash
rgt rewind $ARGUMENTS
```

The step hash can be shortened (first 7+ characters).

After rewinding, the current conversation transcript will be saved and the workspace files will match the target step's state.
