You can resume an agent session by instructing the AI to read the workspace .checkpoint file, which detects the schema and loads the approved context into memory after you confirm the decision to resume.

If a session checkpoint file uses an old or deprecated schema, the read operation avoids parsing it and warns you about the schema mismatch. It safely proceeds without applying any unrecognized checkpoint context to the current agent session.

Reading a workspace checkpoint file is completely safe because the operation is strictly read-only by design. It never modifies the .checkpoint file during the session resume operation, only marking it for overwrite later based on your explicit decision.

To capture a deterministic user decision when resuming a workflow, the skill presents a summary or full content of the checkpoint context and requires you to explicitly choose to resume, discard, or ignore the saved session state before proceeding.

Yes, you can view a summary of saved agent context before loading it. The skill detects the current checkpoint schema and presents a concise summary or full content in presentation mode, allowing you to verify the data before applying it to the session.
