Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Use when working on or reviewing session execution, command handling, shell state, FIFO-based streaming, or stdout/stderr separation. Relevant for session.ts, command handlers, exec/execStream, or anything involving shell process management. (project)Key capabilities
- →Manage shell state and command execution
- →Separate stdout and stderr streams using binary prefixes
- →Execute commands in foreground or background modes
- →Handle atomic exit code writing
- →Coordinate FIFO-based streaming for background processes
How it works
The skill manages terminal sessions by using a mutex for serialization and specific binary prefixes to reconstruct output streams from foreground temp files or background FIFOs.
Inputs & outputs
When to use session-execution
- →Debug issues with shell command execution
- →Optimize stdout/stderr streaming in agent tasks
- →Review session state handling
About session-execution
Provides guidance and logic for managing terminal sessions, command execution handlers, and stream processing. It is specifically designed to handle shell states, stdout/stderr, and process management.
Use when working on or reviewing session execution, command handling, shell state, FIFO-based streaming, or stdout/stderr separation. Relevant for session.ts, command handlers, exec/execStream, or anything involving shell process management. (project)
When not to use it
- →Operations requiring cross-session isolation without proper handling
- →File operations outside the mutex-protected section
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Requires adherence to the mutex-protected execution model
- →Buffering issues may occur with large output
- →Requires labelers.done to be awaited in background mode
How it compares
This method provides a structured architecture for reliable stream separation and process management compared to standard shell execution.
