name	sessions-manager
description	Manage OpenClaw agent sessions - list active/completed sessions, view session details, and delete sessions by ID. Use when you need to inspect session state, clean up old sessions, or manage multiple concurrent sessions.

Sessions Manager

Manage OpenClaw agent sessions through CLI commands.

Commands

List Sessions

List all sessions with their status, model, and duration:

python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/sessions-manager/scripts/sessions_cli.py list

For verbose output (includes channel info):

python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/sessions-manager/scripts/sessions_cli.py list -v

Delete Session

Delete a session by session ID or session key:

python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/sessions-manager/scripts/sessions_cli.py delete <session-id-or-key>

Example:

python3 ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/sessions-manager/scripts/sessions_cli.py delete agent:main:subagent:5adb35d1-d8e3-4ab7-b9b9-c69a7f891fb3

Output Format

The list command shows:

• 📌 Session key (e.g., agent:main:main, agent:main:subagent:xxx)
• Session ID (UUID)
• Label (if set, e.g., "bsv-lsp 常量展开实现")
• Status (running, completed, timeout, etc.)
• Model being used
• Start time
• Duration

Session Files

Sessions are stored in:

• Metadata: ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/sessions.json
• History: ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/<session-id>.jsonl

The delete command removes both the metadata entry and the history file.

Use Cases

1. Debug stuck sessions - Check which subagents are still running
2. Clean up old sessions - Remove completed or timed-out sessions
3. Monitor concurrent work - See what subagents are active
4. Free resources - Delete sessions that are no longer needed
