# session-tools
|
|
|
|
Resilient remote-execution wrappers for SSH/tmux patterns across the lilith
|
|
host fleet (plum, apricot, black, quinn-vps, ...).
|
|
|
|
The premise: a bare `ssh host cmd` dies the moment the transport hiccups,
|
|
killing whatever was running on the remote. These wrappers run commands inside
|
|
a detached tmux session on the remote so the work survives the SSH drop.
|
|
|
|
## Tools
|
|
|
|
- **`bin/remote-run <host> <cmd...>`** — One-shot command runner. Spawns a
|
|
detached tmux session on `<host>`, streams stdout/stderr back to your
|
|
terminal, propagates the exit code. If the local ssh dies mid-run, the tmux
|
|
session continues; reattach with `ssh <host> tmux ls` then
|
|
`ssh <host> tmux attach -t <session>`.
|
|
|
|
- **`bin/tssh <host>`** — Interactive shell wrapper. Auto-attaches to (or
|
|
creates) a per-user tmux session on `<host>` named `claude-$(whoami)`.
|
|
Detach with `Ctrl-b d`; transport drops don't kill the shell.
|
|
|
|
- **`bin/rclaude <host> [dir]`** — Durable Claude Code session, local or
|
|
remote. Stacks two resilience layers: tmux survives terminal/transport
|
|
drops, and `claude --continue` resumes the per-directory session from
|
|
`~/.claude/projects/` after anything kills the host itself. Re-running
|
|
with the same `<host>` + `<dir>` always lands back in the same
|
|
conversation. `<host>` can be any ssh target, or `local`/`localhost`/the
|
|
local hostname to skip ssh and use a local tmux session (still detachable
|
|
for terminal/network resilience). Defaults to
|
|
`--dangerously-skip-permissions`; override with `RCLAUDE_PERMS=default`.
|
|
|
|
- **`bin/rclaude send (--all|--host <h>|--match <pat>) [--yes] -- <text...>`** —
|
|
Broadcast a prompt to live `claude-*` tmux sessions across `scan_hosts`.
|
|
Dry-run by default: prints the resolved target list and exits. Pass `--yes`
|
|
to actually deliver. Selectors are mutually exclusive — `--all` hits every
|
|
live session, `--host` scopes to one host, `--match` substring-matches the
|
|
session name (which embeds a slugified cwd via `claude_slug()`) or the cwd
|
|
column. Delivery uses `tmux send-keys -l` (literal mode) so control
|
|
sequences in `<text>` cannot be interpreted by the target shell.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
On every host that should have these on `$PATH`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git clone http://forge.black.lan/lilith/session-tools.git ~/Code/@scripts/session-tools
|
|
~/Code/@scripts/session-tools/install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Symlinks `bin/remote-run` and `bin/tssh` into `~/bin`. Pulls future updates
|
|
via plain `git pull` — symlinks track the repo automatically.
|
|
|
|
## When to use what
|
|
|
|
| Scenario | Use |
|
|
|--------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------|
|
|
| Interactive shell on a remote | `tssh <host>` |
|
|
| One-off command (build, test, query) | `remote-run <host> "<cmd>"` |
|
|
| Claude Code session on a remote | `rclaude <host> [dir]` |
|
|
| Broadcast a prompt to running Claudes | `rclaude send --all --yes -- "<text>"` |
|
|
| Long-running job (>1h, must survive reboot)| `systemd --user` unit on the remote, not ssh |
|
|
|
|
## Per-host shims (optional)
|
|
|
|
If a particular host gets used a lot, drop a one-liner into `~/bin/`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# ~/bin/apricot-run
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
|
exec remote-run apricot "$@"
|
|
```
