Resume a task

Left the app and want to keep working on a task in your terminal? Every task that has been started before carries a ready-to-copy resume command in its detail panel.

What you get

  • A Resume section appears in the task detail panel as soon as the task has been started at least once.
  • It shows the exact command to continue that Claude Code session — claude --resume <session-id> — plus the task's ID, both with their own copy button.
  • Works regardless of whether the task was originally started from the app or from a terminal.
  • Only the most recent session is kept — one command, always up to date, no list to sift through.

How you use it

  1. Open a task that has already been started, click it to open the detail panel.
  2. Find the Resume section, directly above the task chat.
  3. Click the copy button next to claude --resume <session-id> to copy the command.
  4. Paste it into your terminal in the project folder and press enter — Claude Code picks up the exact same session, with its full history.
  5. Need to reference the task elsewhere? Copy the task ID the same way from the entry right below the command.

The Resume section sits above the task chat, with a copy button for the resume command and one for the task ID.

Why it only shows up after a first start

A resume command only makes sense once a Claude Code session actually exists for the task. Before the first start there is nothing to resume, so the section stays hidden until you run the task at least once.
