@alaminrifat and @gavrielc test this functionality in my local installation. Works as expected. |

.claude/skills/<name>/, no source changes)Description
We add a
/new-sessionchat command that lets users clear the current Claude SDK session for a group, forcing the next message to start with a clean conversation history. The command is handled entirely by the host process before routing to the agent, so the agent never sees it. We used the/remote-controlfeature for reference.In non-main groups it is restricted to the device owner (is_from_me); in the main group any sender can use it, and a
/new-session <folder>variant allows clearing another group's session by folder name.Also added an IPC command to reset the current sessionId inside running containers.
The global CLAUDE.md is updated to document
/new-sessionalongside/remote-controlso the agent can inform users about available commands.solves #1211
- [x] tested on local and new installation
