# Session Open > **Deprecated.** This skill is superseded by [[skills/resume/SKILL.md|/resume]] (docs/two-verb-lifecycle.md). New installs should reach for `/resume`; this file stays for anyone still invoking `/open` by habit during the transition. Run this at the start of every normal working session. ## Nightly alert surface Before normal orientation, run the local watchdog with the same configured time zone and cutoff used by the pass: ```text node daemons/nightly-watchdog.mjs --root <aigent-root> ``` Surface every active named alert from `vault/memory/runtime/NIGHTLY_ALERTS.jsonl`. The append-only ledger and stderr are the default delivery channels; no external coordination service is required. If the ledger is unreadable, report `ALERT_LEDGER_INVALID` and continue the resume path. An alert-read failure must never suppress session orientation or make the hook indistinguishable from "not installed." ## First-run detection Before the normal protocol, read `.aigent/state.json`. - If `status` is not `ready`, run `/start` instead of the normal open protocol. - If the JSON state is missing but `.aigent/first-run-done` exists, treat the installation as ready and create the JSON state as a compatibility migration. - Do not inspect natural-language placeholders in `system/00_identity.md`. Product state belongs in machine-readable state, not in whether a sentence happens to survive an edit. ## Protocol **Unbanked-session recovery:** Compare `.aigent/last-close`, if prese
