RESET STATE UTILITY

Reset or rebuild state for a run. Use when state becomes corrupted or needs to be reconstructed from output files.


USAGE:

/reset-state <run_id> [--mode]

PARAMETERS:

  • run_id: The run identifier to reset
  • --mode: (Optional) Reset mode: delete, rebuild, or verify (default: verify)

MODES:

  • verify: Check state integrity without changes
  • rebuild: Reconstruct state from output files
  • delete: Completely remove state file (WARNING: irreversible)

EXAMPLES:

# Verify state integrity
/reset-state run_20250310_143022

# Rebuild state from output files
/reset-state run_20250310_143022 --rebuild

# Delete state completely
/reset-state run_20250310_143022 --delete

    # Get file modification time

MODE 3: DELETE

Completely remove state file:

import os
from datetime import datetime

state_file = f".claude/state/{run_id}.json"

if not os.path.exists(state_file):
    print(f"State file not found: {state_file}")
    exit(0)

# Load state for summary
with open(state_file, 'r') as f:
    state = json.load(f)

print("WARNING: You are about to DELETE the following state:")
print("")
print(f"  Run ID: {state['run_id']}")
print(f"  Spec: {state['spec_path']}")
print(f"  Output Dir: {state['output_dir']}")
print(f"  Iterations: {state['completed_iterations']}")
print(f"  Created: {state['created_at']}")
print("")
print("This action is IRREVERSIBLE.")
print("Output files will NOT be deleted, only state tracking.")
print("")

response = input("Type 'DELETE' to confirm: ")

if response == "DELETE":
    # Backup before deletion
    backup_file = f"{state_file}.deleted_{datetime.now().strftime('%Y%m%d_%H%M%S')}"
    os.rename(state_file, backup_file)

    print(f"State deleted.")
    print(f"Backup saved to: {backup_file}")
    print("")
    print("To completely remove: rm {backup_file}")
else:
    print("Deletion cancelled.")

SELF-CONSISTENCY VALIDATION:

All modes apply self-consistency principle:

Verify Mode:

  • Samples 6 independent validation approaches
  • Uses majority voting for consistency score
  • Multiple checks ensure comprehensive validation

Rebuild Mode:

  • Cross-validates rebuilt state against filesystem
  • Verifies file hashes for integrity
  • Re-runs full verification after rebuild

Delete Mode:

  • Creates backup before deletion
  • Provides detailed confirmation
  • Enables recovery if needed

COMMON USE CASES:

Case 1: State-File Mismatch

Problem: Manual file deletions created inconsistency
Solution: /reset-state <run_id> --rebuild
Result: State reconstructed from actual files

Case 2: Corruption Investigation

Problem: Uncertain if state is reliable
Solution: /reset-state <run_id> --verify
Result: Detailed consistency report

Case 3: Clean Slate

Problem: Want to restart with same run_id
Solution: /reset-state <run_id> --delete
Result: State removed, can create new run

Case 4: URL List Corruption

Problem: Duplicate URLs in state
Solution: /reset-state <run_id> --rebuild
Result: URLs re-extracted from files, deduplicated

SAFETY FEATURES:

Backup Protection:

  • Original state always backed up before changes
  • Backup includes timestamp
  • Can restore from backup if needed

Confirmation Required:

  • Delete mode requires explicit confirmation
  • User sees summary before deletion
  • Can cancel at any point

Non-Destructive:

  • Never deletes output files
  • Only modifies state tracking
  • Rebuild can be re-run if needed

Verification:

  • All modes validate their results
  • Self-consistency checks applied
  • Clear reporting of issues

TROUBLESHOOTING:

Rebuild produces wrong iteration count:

Check filename patterns in output directory
Verify iteration numbers in filenames
Consider manual state editing

Verify shows low score but rebuild fails:

Output directory may be corrupted too
Check file permissions
Inspect sample output files manually

Delete backup grows large:

Old backups can be manually removed
Check .claude/state/*.backup_* files
Delete old backups: rm .claude/state/*.backup_*

NOTES:

  • Always run verify before rebuild
  • Rebuild is best-effort based on filesystem
  • Some metadata may be lost in rebuild (e.g., exact timing)
  • Delete provides recovery window via backup
  • Self-consistency score indicates reliability
