coding agent heartbeat

✅Solved

What's best practice when using clawdbot as a coding agent orchestrator? i.e. for chasing up either itself but also working coding agents

Solution

The spawn itself has a timeout — combine with heartbeat:

await sessions_spawn({
  agentId: "coding-worker",
  label: "api-build",
  task: "Build the REST API",
  runTimeoutSeconds: 600,  // 10 min hard limit
  timeoutSeconds: 60       // Overall session timeout
});

await sessions_spawn({
  agentId: "coding-worker",
  label: "api-build",
  task: "Build the REST API",
  runTimeoutSeconds: 600,  // 10 min hard limit
  timeoutSeconds: 60       // Overall session timeout
});

Then the controller's heartbeat handler receives timeout events and can:
- Log the failure
- Respawn with different params
- Alert you
