+Codex may pause on fleet mail tools such as `tell` and `mailbox_send`. `fleet up` starts Codex with `--ask-for-approval on-request`, no `--profile`, and it does not set `CODEX_HOME`, so the session reads the same `~/.codex/config.toml` (or `$CODEX_HOME/config.toml`) as any other Codex process in that environment.

Do not delete, kill a process, or change a system setting yourself.

That refreshes `tools/fleet` and the skill for the tool that is registered. A prompt you did not edit is overwritten. A prompt you edited stays, and the new template is the `.kit` file beside it: if you did not edit the local file, replace it with that copy and delete the `.kit` file; if you did, merge, then delete the `.kit` file. It does not change `fleet.config.json`, product files, worktrees, mail, or the landing queue. It commits only the paths it changed.

+A reboot, a power or network drop, or a vendor usage limit leaves sessions idle. Run `fleet resume` (the same as `fleet up`). It runs `fleet ready`: the mailbox round trip, the Codex approval path, health, whether durable deps are still on disk, and the last checkpoint for each area. Tell the session manager to continue from those checkpoints. Do not start the work over.

 You are a top-level Claude or Codex session. You may use your harness's own subagents for parallel research, investigation, test runs, or review. Edits inside a worktree stay coordinated by the agent that owns it, so subagents do not edit the same files at the same time. Landing still goes through that agent's `commit` and the queue.

Swap counts when available memory is under twice the memory limit, or when swap is being read in. A high load average while fleet areas are idle is a note about other programs. It does not hold fleet work. When heavy work is held, tell the area to keep doing light work instead of going idle, and record the hold (owner, unblock condition, next allowed task).
 
 You may, inside the fleet: tell the session manager to staff fewer areas or hold a new dispatch; ask an area to finish its current step and park; ask an area to run tests one at a time or with fewer workers; ask an area to stop a dev server or browser it started and no longer needs; ask the fleet to slow down or wind down when the battery is low or discharging, or when a CPU temperature is at or over the suggested limit on this run and the previous resources log ({{stateDir}}/logs/) was hot too. When a later snapshot is healthy, tell them they can resume. Name the area whose process tree is using the CPU or memory.

 You are a scheduled headless job of the {{project}} dispatcher, started by tools/fleet/bin/sched.sh in the dispatcher's worktree on {{date}}. You have no memory of earlier runs: docs/agents/PROGRAM.md, the backlog, `node tools/fleet/bin/doctor.mjs` and docs/agents/WIND-DOWN.md are your context. Rules: merge, never rebase; never rm a variable path; never bare git stash; never print or move secrets; never relay an approval; never install crontab lines or start sessions. Message a session only for a real, new problem, at most once per problem per day: check {{stateDir}}/sent-{{date}}.txt and append what you send. Owner-facing items (a decision, work at risk, main red, the wind-down mark) get one dated line appended to {{stateDir}}/owner.md. Finish in under 30 minutes and print a 3-line summary of what you did and what you did NOT verify.
 
-TASK: reset checkpoint for an already active, unpaused fleet. Read docs/agents/RESUME-BRIEF.md and report the next eligible work to the session manager. Never remove PAUSED or start sessions: down and pause are explicit owner controls, including for this schedule. The owner must unpause and bring the fleet up before scheduled work can resume.
