Context Management & Reliability

You are creating developer-productivity tools with the Claude Agent SDK. The agent helps engineers explore unfamiliar codebases, understand legacy systems, generate boilerplate code, and automate repetitive work. It uses the built-in tools (Read, Write, Bash, Grep, Glob) and integrates with Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.

An engineer’s exploration subagent spent 30 minutes analyzing a legacy payment system, read 47 files, and documented data flows. The session was interrupted when the engineer’s connection dropped. During the absence, a teammate merged a PR that renamed two utility functions. The engineer wants to continue the same exploration.

What is the most effective approach?

Explanation

Session resumption retains the exploration context accumulated across the 47 files and the documented data flows. The renamed utility functions are a relevant repository change, so the resumed agent needs that update in its continuation prompt to re-check affected references against the current codebase. Anthropic’s SDK and CLI documentation supports resuming a conversation by session ID for multi-turn work.
