Pass a <code>sessionId</code> (a body field over HTTP, <code>--session</code> on the CLI, <code>options.sessionId</code> programmatically) to run inside an existing session instead: the tool sees that session&#39;s workspace, and the call is recorded on the session&#39;s event stream under a per-call <code>turnId</code>, visible in the playground and trajectories like any model-initiated call. Session-bound calls serialize with model turns and return <code>409 session_busy</code> while a turn runs.</p><p>The error semantics match the model path. Unknown tools are rejected with the available names, agent-execution tools cannot be called on the host (<code>400</code>), schema-invalid input is a <code>400</code> before the tool body runs (Zod validates; plain JSON Schema passes through unvalidated), and a tool body that throws reports <code>isError: true</code> in the same envelope the model would see.</p><h2 id="design-habits" tabindex="-1">Design habits <a class="header-anchor" href="#design-habits" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Design habits&quot;">​</a></h2><p>Keep one decision per tool.

Have Cursor read that file and follow it.</p><p>Where to find the file depends on how you got the package:</p><ul><li>Installing <code>@cursor/july</code> (<code>npm install</code>, <code>npx @cursor/july</code>, a version bump) copies every package skill into <code>~/.cursor/skills/agentsdk/</code> with <code>alwaysApply: true</code>, so Cursor injects the skill body into context instead of waiting for the model to pick it from the catalog. The <code>/</code> menu lists them as <code>/agentsdk-create-agent</code>, <code>/agentsdk-hillclimb</code>, and the rest. Re-installing overwrites those copies with the package version. Set <code>CURSOR_JULY_SKIP_SKILL_INSTALL=1</code> to skip the copy.</li><li>Installed <code>@cursor/july</code> as a dependency? The skill also ships inside the package at <code>node_modules/@cursor/july/skills/create-agent/SKILL.md</code>.</li><li>Working in the monorepo? It&#39;s at <code>packages/agent-serve/skills/create-agent/SKILL.md</code>.

The <code>/</code> menu lists them as <code>/agentsdk-create-agent</code>, <code>/agentsdk-hillclimb</code>, and the rest. Re-installing overwrites those copies with the package version.
