jackin hardline

Terminal window
jackin hardline <SELECTOR>

Reconnect your terminal to a running agent container. Use this when you’ve closed your terminal but the agent is still running in the background.

In The Matrix, a hardline is a phone line used to enter or exit the simulation. In jackin’, it’s your way back into a running agent session.

If you pass an agent class selector, jackin hardline reconnects to that class’s primary container. If you have multiple running instances, use the full container name to pick a specific clone.
