pi-extension-atomic-json-state

You can persist JSON state for Pi extensions across session restarts by writing the state to a JSON file. This ensures state durability and prevents data loss during session interruptions.

The best way to prevent data corruption during JSON file writes is to use atomic writes. This technique ensures the JSON file is written completely or not at all, avoiding partial data states.

Timestamp merge resolves conflicts between session state and external CLI mutations by comparing timestamps. It determines the most recent update and applies it, maintaining consistent state across different mutation sources.

Yes, you can use this JSON state persistence for task managers or configuration storages. It is designed for any Pi extension that needs to maintain consistent state across sessions and external mutations.

Your Pi extension loses state after external CLI mutations because it lacks durable JSON file persistence. Without timestamp-based conflict resolution, external changes overwrite or ignore the current session state.

No, you do not need any external dependencies to manage atomic JSON state for Pi extensions. The skill operates independently using scripts to handle JSON file persistence and timestamp merging.
