Explicit Identity Across Boundaries

Never rely on "latest" or "current" when crossing process or async boundaries.

Pattern

Pass explicit identifiers through the entire pipeline. "Most recent" is a race condition.

DO

Pass --session-id $ID when spawning processes
Store IDs in state files for later correlation
Use full UUIDs, not partial matches
Keep different ID types separate (don't collapse concepts)

DON'T

Query for "most recent session" at execution time
Assume the current context will still be current after await/spawn
Collapse different ID types:
- session_id = Claude Code session (human-facing)
- root_span_id = Braintrust trace (query key)
- turn_span_id = Braintrust turn within session

Example

// BAD: race condition at session boundaries
spawn('analyzer', ['--learn'])  // defaults to "most recent"

// GOOD: explicit identity
spawn('analyzer', ['--learn', '--session-id', input.session_id])

Useful defaults in explicit-identity — fewer surprises than typical one-off scripts, and it plays nicely with `npx skills` flows.

Solid pick for teams standardizing on skills: explicit-identity is focused, and the summary matches what you get after install.

I recommend explicit-identity for anyone iterating fast on agent tooling; clear intent and a small, reviewable surface area.
