| description | Lifts a machine-wide ai-maestro-janitor pause set by /janitor-global-pause, so the global daemon resumes running tasks and every session's heartbeat resumes emitting drift. The resume half of /janitor-global-pause. Trigger with /janitor-global-unpause, "unpause all janitors", "resume the janitor everywhere", "lift the global janitor pause". |
Janitor global unpause (machine-wide resume)
Overview
Clears the global-pause flag set by /janitor-global-pause. The daemon — which was
idling, not stopped — resumes running due tasks on its next loop (within ~1 s), and
every session's heartbeat resumes emitting drift lines. There is nothing to re-spawn,
because a pause never tore anything down.
This lifts a PAUSE only. To revive a daemon that was truly stopped with
/janitor-global-disarm, use /janitor-global-arm instead.
Instructions
-
Clear the global-pause flag via the backing CLI:
uv run --script --quiet "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/global_control_cli.py" unpause
-
Report the one-line result. The daemon resumes work within ~1 s of the flag
clearing.
Output
One line confirming the machine-wide pause was lifted. If no pause was set, the call
is a harmless no-op.
Error Handling
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} unset → abort "plugin not installed".- Clearing a global-pause that is not present is idempotent (no error).
Examples
User: /janitor-global-unpause
User: unpause all janitors
User: resume the janitor everywhere
Scope
ONLY clears the machine-wide global-pause flag (via the backing CLI). Does NOT clear
a global DISARM (that is /janitor-global-arm), does NOT lift a per-project pause
(that is /janitor-unpause), and does NOT arm any cron.
Resources
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/global_control_cli.py — backing CLI./janitor-global-pause — sets the global-pause flag this skill clears./janitor-global-arm — the revive for a true DISARM (different flag)./janitor-unpause — the per-project pause lift.
