New Session Skill

Trigger

This skill activates when the user sends /new. It resets the current chat and starts a fresh session.

How It Works

• Web UI: The frontend handles /new locally - it clears the current session and resets the chat view. No message is sent to the engine.
• Connectors (Slack, etc.): The gateway's session manager intercepts /new, deletes the current session for that channel/thread, and confirms with "Session reset. Starting fresh."

Your Behavior

You typically won't see /new messages because they're handled before reaching the engine. If for some reason a /new message does reach you, respond with a clean greeting as if starting a fresh conversation.
