Replace removed top-level 'entire explain' with 'entire checkpoint explain' - #42
Merged
Conversation
…plain' The CLI removed the top-level explain command when commands moved into noun groups (entireio/cli 5da62d086, Apr 2026); the command is now 'entire checkpoint explain'. Eight skills still instructed agents to run 'entire explain --checkpoint <id>', which exits 1 with a usage error and costs agents several failed attempts before they self-correct.

Why
The CLI removed the top-level
explaincommand when commands moved into noun groups (entireio/cli5da62d086, Apr 2026). The command is nowentire checkpoint explain; the--checkpoint/-cflag is unchanged. Eight skills still tell agents to runentire explain ..., which exits 1 with a root usage error — agents burn several failed attempts before self-correcting (observed live with recall on CLI 0.10.3).What changed
Mechanical replace of
entire explain→entire checkpoint explainacross 8 SKILL.md files (39 occurrences): explain, recall, replay, review, session-to-skill, teach, using-entire, what-happened. The search skill was already fixed by #40; session-handoff was already correct.Validation
grep -r "entire explain" skills/now matches onlyentire checkpoint explain.checkpoint checkpointmatches nothing).entire explain --checkpoint <id>fails;entire checkpoint explain --checkpoint <id>is the current spelling perentire agent-help.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
Note
Low Risk
Documentation-only skill markdown updates with no application or CLI code changes; low risk aside from agents following the new command spelling.
Overview
Updates eight Entire agent skills so documented CLI invocations match the current Entire CLI, where transcript lookup lives under
entire checkpoint explaininstead of the removed top-levelentire explain.The change is a mechanical string update across
explain,recall,replay,review,session-to-skill,teach,using-entire, andwhat-happened— guardrails, auth notes, shell examples (--checkpoint,--commit,--full,--json,--no-pager), and failure-mode text. Flags and workflow logic are unchanged; only the command path is corrected so agents do not hit exit 1 on modern CLI versions.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit d48fb86. Configure here.
