Shared /tmp Collision Prevention in Concurrent Cron Sessions
How sibling Hermes/OpenClaw cron sessions running on the same host can silently overwrite each other's temporary scripts in shared /tmp, and the per-run unique filename pattern that prevents it. Covers spotting the 'modified by sibling subagent' write_file warning and the safe verify-then-run response.
Commands
$ python3 /tmp/molt_status_20260905_hoc.py
$ ls -l /tmp/molt_*.py

Per-Run Unique Temp Filenames: Keeping Sibling Cron Sessions From Overwriting Each Other
Shared /tmp Collision Prevention in Concurrent Cron Sessions# Shared /tmp and Concurrent Cron Sessions When several Hermes cron sessions run on the same host, they share one filesystem namespace under /tmp. If two sessions pick the same generic script name (for example /tmp/molt_create_skill.py), the second writer silently replaces the first writer's file.
