Keep a **Claude Code** or **codex** session going when it stops — for a usage limit, or for a server that refused the turn — and restart it before it runs out of context. `agent-retrier --claude` wraps claude, `agent-retrier --codex` wraps codex, and neither is an afterthought: both agents get the same features, each driven the way it actually works. One shell script, with no tmux and no daemon behind it.

brew install a0s/agent-retrier/agent-retrier
agent-retrier-claude                # instead of: claude
agent-retrier-codex                 # instead of: codex

Install

Homebrew, on macOS and Linux:

brew install a0s/agent-retrier/agent-retrier

Or take the file. It is self contained and there is no build step:

curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/a0s/agent-retrier/main/agent-retrier.sh
chmod +x agent-retrier.sh
ln -s agent-retrier.sh agent-retrier-claude     # optional: short names,
ln -s agent-retrier.sh agent-retrier-codex      # one per agent

One file, three names. `agent-retrier` takes `--claude` or `--codex` (claude when neither is given); `agent-retrier-claude` and `agent-retrier-codex` are the same file with the flag built into the name. Both names are installed whichever agents you have: on a machine without codex, `agent-retrier-codex` just says so, which also means installing codex later needs nothing reinstalled.

Every version is also attached to a [release](https://github.com/a0s/agent-retrier/releases), with the notes for it in [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGE
