microagent halt

microagent halt <name> [--state-dir <dir>]

halt requests a clean shutdown and records the terminal state as halted. The VM process exits, but the workspace rootfs, attached disks, identity, and event timeline remain under --state-dir so a later microagent start <name> boots the same disk state.

This is not memory pause/resume. A restarted workspace boots again from the preserved disk.

FlagDescription
--state-dir <dir>State directory holding the workspace record
--supervisor <path>Override the installed host backend supervisor path
