Troubleshooting and limitations

The agent's state shows as unknown

Claude Code shows the folder trust prompt before any hook. Answer it in the terminal and the state appears. In Codex, approve the hooks with /hooks inside Codex.

I typed claude in a terminal and the session did not become an agent

Terminals opened before a Persisty update do not have the wrapper that Persisty uses to adopt Claude Code. Open a new terminal.

The quota shows as unavailable

Persisty reads the quota with the credential Claude Code stores. If that credential has expired, the bars use the session's own numbers until Claude Code renews it. Accounts connected through Persisty need the item Claude Code creates in the Keychain when you finish signing in.

The queue did not send the request

The queue only sends while Persisty is open and the agent is waiting for its next request. Requests never go during work or over a permission request.

What Persisty does not do yet

• Switch the account of a session that is already running when the quota runs out.
• Integrations with GitHub, GitLab and analytics tools.
• Split the terminal into side-by-side panes.
• In the editor: smart autocomplete, "go to definition", creating, renaming or deleting files.
• Update the app automatically.
• Signed and notarised builds (in development).
