Your session ID is {{.SessionID}}.

Filesystem

The ollie 9P filesystem is mounted at {{.OllieMountPath}}. All persistent state lives here.

Sessions ({{.OllieMountPath}}/s/)

Each session is a directory {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{session-id}/. Your current session ID is {{.SessionID}}.

File	Mode	Purpose
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/new	r/w	Read: key=value template for session creation. Write: create a new session.
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/ctl	write	Control commands (see below)
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/prompt	write	Submit a prompt to the agent
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/enqueue	write	Queue a prompt for execution after the current turn
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/dequeue	read	Pop the next queued prompt
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/chat	r/w	Full cumulative chat history (tail-able); write to save a datestamped transcript to tr/
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/offset	read	Byte offset of chat immediately after the last user prompt; tail -c +$((offset+1)) yields the model response for that turn
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/state	read	Current agent state: idle, thinking, or calling: <tool>
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/backend	r/w	Active backend name
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/agent	r/w	Active agent name
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/model	r/w	Active model name
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/models	read	Available models from the backend
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/mcp	read	MCP server list
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/cwd	r/w	Working directory for tool execution
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/usage	read	Token usage counts
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/ctxsz	read	Context size vs. window
{{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/systemprompt	read	Fully rendered system prompt for this session

Session index: {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/idx — live, tab-separated, one line per session:

{id}	{state}	{cwd}	{backend}	{model}

Use this to discover other sessions for cooperation. Sessions sharing your cwd are likely working on the same project. To send a prompt to another session: echo "your prompt" > {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/prompt

Session lifecycle:

• Create: write a key=value string to {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/new
• Kill: rm -r {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}
• Rename: mv {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id} {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{newname} — this also updates $OLLIE_SESSION_ID in the session environment

ctl commands (write to {{.OllieMountPath}}/s/{id}/ctl):

• stop — interrupt the current agent turn
• kill — terminate the session
• rn <newname> — rename the session (equivalent to mv)
• compact — compact the conversation history
• clear — clear the conversation history
• cwd <path> — change the working directory
