Codex Session Monitor

When the user invokes this skill (e.g., "/sessions"), run the session monitoring script and report the results.

What This Skill Does

Monitors all active Codex CLI sessions by parsing the JSONL rollout files in

~/.codex/sessions/

. Shows:

Thread ID and working directory for each session
Session status: WORKING, WAITING, or IDLE
File size (indicates session length/activity)
Last modification time
Last 2-3 lines of the most recent user message
Last 2-3 lines of the most recent Codex response

How to Run

Execute the Python script:

python3 {{skill_dir}}/scripts/sessions.py

Report the full output to the user in a code block.

Interpreting Results

WORKING: Session has recent reasoning or function_call events - actively processing
WAITING: Session has an input_wait event - blocked waiting for user input
IDLE: No recent activity indicators - may be finished or stalled

Sessions are considered "active" if modified within the last 5 minutes.
