Files Modified:
src/cli/simple-cli.ts - Added checkpoint to core commands listsrc/cli/commands/index.ts - Added checkpoint help documentationChanges:
// Added to help command
if (command === 'checkpoint') {
console.log(bold(blue('Checkpoint Management (SDK Integration)')));
console.log();
console.log('Manage session checkpoints with Git-like time travel for AI sessions.');
// ... detailed help output
}
When the MCP server is running (claude-flow mcp start), all 7 tools are available:
// Example: Create checkpoint via MCP
mcp__claude-flow__checkpoint_create({
sessionId: "my-session",
description: "Before deployment"
})
// Example: Fork session via MCP
mcp__claude-flow__session_fork({
sessionId: "base-session",
forkOptions: {}
})
// Example: Pause query via MCP
mcp__claude-flow__query_pause({
sessionId: "active-query"
})
# These are available programmatically but not through CLI commands
# Use MCP tools or direct SDK imports instead
# Via Node.js/TypeScript:
import { checkpointManager } from './src/sdk/checkpoint-manager.js';
const cpId = await checkpointManager.createCheckpoint('session-id', 'desc');
| Category | Tool Count | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Previously Existing | 87 | agent/spawn, task/create, memory/store |
| NEW: Checkpoint | 3 | checkpoint/create, checkpoint/list, checkpoint/rollback |
| NEW: Session Forking | 2 | session/fork, session/info |
| NEW: Query Control | 2 | query/pause, query/resume |
| TOTAL | 94 | Full SDK integration |

To verify MCP tools are available:
# 1. Start MCP server
./bin/claude-flow mcp start
# 2. In Claude Code with MCP connected, list tools:
# Tools will show: checkpoint/create, checkpoint/list, checkpoint/rollback,
# session/fork, session/info, query/pause, query/resume
# 3. Run validation
npx tsx scripts/validate-sdk-integration.ts
# Should show: ✅ ALL VALIDATIONS PASSED!
MCP Integration: COMPLETE ✅
The claude-flow MCP server now provides complete access to all SDK features through standardized MCP tool interfaces.
