List every directory that has zot sessions mapped, and jump zot into one.

zot ext install https://github.com/patriceckhart/zot-workspaces

Restart zot after installing. First run downloads tsx into npm's cache (one network hit, a few seconds); subsequent runs are instant.

Type:

/workspaces

This opens an interactive dashboard listing every cwd that has at least one zot session under $ZOT_HOME/sessions/ and still exists on disk. Rows are sorted by most recently used.

  workspaces (4)

  ~/Developer/zot              285 sessions   2s ago
  ~/Sites/dentacore-app          6 sessions   2h ago
  ~/Desktop/test                15 sessions   1d ago
  ~/Developer/zot-todo           1 session    2d ago

  up/down navigate - enter jump here - r rescan - esc close

Keys:

Pressing Enter switches zot's working directory in place: the current session is closed, the agent is rebuilt so tools, AGENTS.md, and the /jail sandbox re-bind to the new directory, and a fresh session opens in the new cwd. Same end state as relaunching with zot --cwd /path, no process restart.

zot stores sessions under $ZOT_HOME/sessions/<sha256(cwd)[:16]hex>/<timestamp>-<id>.jsonl. The original cwd is recorded in the session file's first line:

{"type":"meta","meta":{"id":"...","cwd":"/abs/path", ...}}

The extension walks $ZOT_HOME/sessions/, reads only the first line of each .jsonl, groups by meta.cwd, drops cwds that no longer exist on disk, and uses each file's mtime to pick a "last used" timestamp per workspace.
