CLI command

jeden todo pause

Pause retained work without losing it.

Exact invocation#

Shell
jeden todo pause <task-or-request-id> --revision <n> --reason "text" [--session <id-or-path>] [--json]

Inputs and options#

  • Optional --session &lt;id-or-path&gt; selects a recorded session; otherwise the workspace's latest session is used. --json returns the authoritative completion snapshot.
  • An original request ID controls every unfinished task it owns, including an unplanned request when model intake is unavailable. A task ID controls that task only. --revision must match the latest snapshot and --reason must explain the operator's action.

Output and state effect#

Marks the selected unfinished work paused. It remains incomplete and the execution agent cannot resume it itself.

Refusals and boundaries#

  • Without a selected or current session: no active session; use --session &lt;id-or-path&gt;.
  • Missing control fields: task control requires --revision or task control requires --reason; an empty explanation is refused as task control requires a nonempty operator reason.
  • A stale revision is refused as completion state changed: expected revision &lt;expected&gt;, found &lt;actual&gt;; refresh the snapshot before choosing another action.
  • Unknown IDs are refused as unknown task or request: &lt;id&gt;. Completed or cancelled work is terminal and cannot be resumed by changing its status.
