The Claude agent SDK supports reverting file edits to a previous conversation state via
rewindFiles(), but this wasn't exposed in the VS Code integration.Changes
enableFileCheckpointing: true)rewindFiles()methods on bothClaudeCodeSessionandClaudeAgentManagerrewindFiles(userMessageId, dryRun?)rewindFiles(sessionId, userMessageId, dryRun?)Usage
Each user message in a Claude session now serves as a potential restore point. The SDK automatically maintains file backups when checkpointing is enabled.
Note: This provides the API foundation. UI integration (commands, buttons, dialogs) is tracked separately as future work.
