Recover gstack browser sessions stuck in frozen, paused, or hung states so agent automation can resume navigation, scraping, or UI testing without restarting the full stack.

About

Garry Tan gstack skill that unfreezes stuck browser automation sessions used by coding agents. It helps recover hung Playwright-style runs, resume paused navigation, and clear blocking freeze states so authenticated web workflows continue without tearing down the entire agent environment.

  • Resumes paused or hung gstack browser automation
  • Avoids full stack restarts for stuck agent sessions
  • Restores navigation after freeze during long UI runs
  • Keeps agent tooling productive during live debugging

When to invoke this skill

Use when you want to widen edit scope without ending the session. Use when asked to "unfreeze", "unlock edits", "remove freeze", or "allow all edits".

/unfreeze — Clear Freeze Boundary

Remove the edit restriction set by /freeze, allowing edits to all directories.

mkdir -p ~/.gstack/analytics
echo '{"skill":"unfreeze","ts":"'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'","repo":"'$(basename "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)" 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown")'"}'  >> ~/.gstack/analytics/skill-usage.jsonl 2>/dev/null || true

Clear the boundary

eval "$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-paths)"
STATE_DIR="$GSTACK_STATE_ROOT"
if [ -f "$STATE_DIR/freeze-dir.txt" ]; then
  PREV=$(cat "$STATE_DIR/freeze-dir.txt")
  rm -f "$STATE_DIR/freeze-dir.txt"
  echo "Freeze boundary cleared (was: $PREV). Edits are now allowed everywhere."
else
  echo "No freeze boundary was set."
fi

Tell the user the result. Note that /freeze hooks are still registered for the session — they will just allow everything since no state file exists. To re-freeze, run /freeze again.
