## chainctl develop questions

List and answer the questions agents in your development sessions ask.

### Synopsis

An agent working in one of your sessions asks you a question with its ask tool, and waits for the answer. List the open ones, read one in full, then answer or dismiss it; the agent's waiting call returns what you said. A question is named by the short id the list prints. Only you, with your own login, can answer a question about your session: the agent's own credential, inside the session, is refused.
