### Using Session IDs in Workflows
STDIO extensions (local extensions that communicate via standard input/output) and the Developer extension's shell commands automatically receive the `AGENT_SESSION_ID` environment variable. This enables you to create session-isolated workflows and make it easier to:
- Coordinate work across multiple tool calls using session-isolated handoff paths
- Isolate worktrees or temporary files by session
- Debug correlation between artifacts and session history
The following example shows how a recipe might use the session ID to hand off information between steps:
```bash
# Create session-specific handoff directory
mkdir -p ~/Desktop/${AGENT_SESSION_ID}/handoff
echo "Results from step 1" > ~/Desktop/${AGENT_SESSION_ID}/handoff/output.txt
# Later steps in the recipe can read from the same location
cat ~/Desktop/${AGENT_SESSION_ID}/handoff/output.txt
```
