unfreeze

To unlock edits restricted by a session freeze, run the unfreeze command. It locates and removes the boundary file from the state directory, re-enabling modifications across all directories within the current active session.

Unfreezing edits clears the scope restrictions previously imposed by the freeze command. It widens your modification scope for tasks like refactoring or updating multiple files, while keeping your current session fully active.

To unlock edits for refactoring multiple files, issue the unfreeze command in your active session. This non-destructive action removes the edit boundary file, enabling you to apply modifications across all directories.

No, removing a freeze boundary does not end your current editing session. The unfreeze command is a lightweight, non-destructive action that simply restores full editing scope by deleting the boundary file.

If there is no freeze boundary when you try to unfreeze edits, the command checks the state directory for the boundary file and reports the result to the user. It safely takes no destructive action if the boundary is already absent.

You should not use the unfreeze command if you still need to restrict modifications to a specific directory scope. Removing the boundary re-enables edits across all directories, which may compromise safety controls during sensitive operations.
