Why it matters
Resumable sessions gives ForkMesh a concrete mechanism for persistent agent conversations that survive restarts and interruptions. Pick any conversation back up where it left off, sessions persist, survive restarts, and keep their full context.
AI coding only helps when the agent can work in a real repository without trampling human state or hiding what it did. In ForkMesh, resumable sessions addresses that need at the feature level, keeping the behavior close to the repository instead of buried in a detached hosted layer.
How ForkMesh handles it
ForkMesh handles resumable sessions through the same split it uses across the product: ForkMesh runs agents beside the repository, capturing transcripts, branches, diffs, prompts, usage, questions, and handoffs in the desktop app.
The behavior is intentionally narrow: Pick any conversation back up where it left off, sessions persist, survive restarts, and keep their full context. Humans keep control of instructions, answers, review, and merge decisions.
Where it fits
Use resumable sessions when agent work should be reviewable, resumable, and connected to the same repo UI humans use.
It pairs with the rest of AI agents, built in because Resumable sessions keeps persistent agent conversations that survive restarts and interruptions connected to the repository, its signatures, and the nodes that serve it.
