My laptop is so slow so I even not configured that yet (now I have max subagents cap)
IN
{
"task_id": "ab4c1f8bb9339feb9"
}
OUT
{"message":"Successfully stopped task: ab4c1f8bb9339feb9 (Fix no-floating-promises batch 07)","task_id":"ab4c1f8bb9339feb9","task_type":"local_agent","command":"Fix no-floating-promises batch 07"}
STOP please
revert
All agents stopped. The user wants everything reverted — full stop on this approach. Let me check current git state and revert every change made this session back to a clean tree.
Bash
IN
git status --short | wc -l
git diff --cached --stat | tail -5
echo "--- any staged? ---"
git diff --cached --name-only | wc -l
OUT
145
--- any staged? ---
0
Nothing is staged, so this is a clean, safe revert — restoring the entire working tree to what it was before any of this started.
Bash
IN
git checkout -- app/
echo "--- after revert ---"
git status --short | wc -l
git status --short
OUT
--- after revert ---
0
Impact
Medium - Extra work to undo changes
