Resume Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor Sessions in One CLI

Discover local Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor sessions, import a read-only summary into Wukong, re-check the workspace, and continue the task or start a verified Loop.

> Why resume across coding agents

A task often stops because a session ran out of context, the model reached a limit, or you want a second workflow to verify the result. Re-explaining the whole task loses decisions and encourages the next agent to trust an outdated view of the repository.

Wukong can discover supported local session summaries from Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor. It imports useful context as read-only history, then continues from the files and Git state that exist now.

> Open the source-specific session picker

Start the Wukong TUI in the relevant repository and explicitly choose the source. Each command opens a picker for that agent’s locally discoverable sessions.

Wukong TUI
wukong
/resume codex
/resume claude
/resume cursor

> Choose how to continue

After you select a session, Wukong offers two distinct paths. Continue in Wukong imports the context and returns control to you. Start /loop prepares an editable objective and waits for confirmation before any Loop begins.

  • [+]Continue in Wukong when you want to inspect, ask a question, or adjust the plan first.
  • [+]Start /loop when the remaining outcome is clear and should be driven through checks and independent review.
  • [+]Edit the proposed objective before confirming it; selecting a session never starts writes automatically.

> Current workspace evidence wins

Imported history is context, not proof. Wukong does not replay tool calls from the old session, and claims such as “tests passed” or “file updated” do not replace a fresh read of the current workspace.

Before the task continues, Wukong re-reads the workspace and Git state. If you start a Loop, its checks and reviewer evaluate the current change rather than trusting the earlier agent’s conclusion.

> Privacy and compatibility boundaries

Cross-agent Resume reads supported local session formats. It is not cloud synchronization, remote session hosting, or a transcript upload feature. Wukong does not claim that every version or storage format from another vendor will remain discoverable forever.

The imported summary is deliberately narrower than a raw transcript. That keeps the handoff useful while avoiding automatic replay of historical commands, credentials, or stale evidence.
