## Commands
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `agents session create` | Create a new interactive session |
| `agents session list` | List all sessions |
| `agents session show` | Show session details and recent messages |
| `agents session delete` | Delete a session permanently |
| `agents session export` | Export a session as JSON |
| `agents session import` | Import a session from JSON |
| `agents session tell` | Send a message to a session |
---
## `agents session create`
Create a new interactive session, optionally bound to an orchestrator actor.
```bash
agents session create [--actor <ACTOR>] [--format <FORMAT>]
```
### Options
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--actor` | Orchestrator actor name in `namespace/name` format |
| `--format`, `-f` | Output format: `json`, `yaml`, `plain`, `table`, `rich` (default: `rich`) |
### Output
Returns session info including `session_id`, `actor`, `created`, and `namespace`.
### Example
```bash
agents session create --actor openai/gpt-4
agents session create --format json
```
---
## `agents session list`
List all sessions with message counts and timestamps.
```bash
agents session list [--format <FORMAT>]
```
### Options
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--format`, `-f` | Output format (default: `rich`) |
### JSON Output Shape
```json
{
"sessions": [
{"id": "...", "actor": "...", "messages": 5, "updated": "..."}
],
"total": 1
}
```
---
## `agents session show`
Show session details including recent messages, linked plans, and token usage.
```bash
agents session show <SESSION_ID> [--format <FORMAT>]
```
### Arguments
| Argument | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `SESSION_ID` | The ULID of the session to display |
### Options
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--format`, `-f` | Output format (default: `rich`) |
---
## `agents session delete`
Delete a session permanently. A confirmation prompt is shown unless `--yes` is provided.
```bash
agents session delete <SESSION_ID> [--yes]
```
### Arguments
| Argument | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `SESSION_ID` | The ULID of the session to delete |
### Options
| Flag | Short | Description |
|------|-------|-------------|
| `--yes` | `-y` | Skip confirmation prompt |
---
## `agents session export`
Export a session as JSON to a file or stdout.
```bash
agents session export <SESSION_ID> [--output <FILE>] [--force]
```
### Arguments
| Argument | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `SESSION_ID` | The ULID of the session to export |
### Options
| Flag | Short | Description |
|------|-------|-------------|
| `--output` | `-o` | Output file path (default: stdout) |
| `--force` | | Overwrite existing output file |
### Notes
- Parent directories are created automatically when writing to a file.
- Without `--force`, the command refuses to overwrite an existing file.
- The exported JSON includes a SHA-256 checksum for integrity validation.
---
## `agents session import`
Import a session from a JSON file previously exported with `session export`.
```bash
agents session import --input <FILE>
```
### Options
| Flag | Short | Description |
|------|-------|-------------|
| `--input` | `-i` | Input JSON file path (required) |
### Notes
- Validates schema version and SHA-256 checksum.
- Imported sessions receive fresh ULIDs to avoid ID collisions.
---
## `agents session tell`
Send a message to a session and receive an assistant response.
```bash
agents session tell --session <SESSION_ID> [--actor <ACTOR>] [--stream] <PROMPT>
```
### Arguments
| Argument | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `PROMPT` | The message text to send |
### Options
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--session` | Target session ULID (required) |
| `--actor` | Override actor for this message |
| `--stream` | Stream the response in real-time |
### Notes
- In M3, actor execution is stubbed — the assistant echoes an acknowledgement.
- Both user and assistant messages are persisted with sequence ordering.
- The session's `updated_at` timestamp is refreshed after each message.
