+### Pause from the terminal
+
+In CLI tools and agentic tools such as Claude Code and Codex CLI, you can pause reviews through the chat interface. Ask your agent to pause kluster reviews, and it calls the `kluster_review_pause` MCP tool.
+
+The pause lasts **1 hour** by default. Custom durations are not available in the terminal flow due to a system limitation. While paused, the system automatically resolves any MCP requests so the response is almost instantaneous.
+
+To pause reviews, ask your agent to pause kluster. The following example shows the pause flow in Claude Code:
+
+--8<-- 'code/code-reviews/ide-reviews/pause-reviews.md'
+
+To resume reviews before the pause expires, ask your agent to resume kluster:
+
+--8<-- 'code/code-reviews/ide-reviews/resume-reviews.md'
+
+!!! note "Cross-environment pause"
+ Pause is project-specific. Pausing in a CLI tool also pauses reviews in any IDE working on the same project, and vice versa.

+You can temporarily pause all kluster code reviews for the current project. While paused, the system automatically resolves any MCP requests so the response is almost instantaneous.
+
+### Pause from the status bar
+
+1. Click the **kluster.ai** button in the IDE status bar.
+2. Select **Pause Agent Review...** from the command palette.
+3. Choose a duration from the available options.
+4. Verify that kluster is paused by the pause icon in the kluster.ai IDE status bar.
+
+
+
+Reviews resume automatically when the selected duration expires. Select **Indefinitely (disable)** to keep reviews paused until you re-enable them manually.
+
+!!! note "Pause is project-specific"
+ Pausing applies to the project identified by its Git remote URL or filesystem path. If you pause reviews in one tool (for example, VS Code), reviews are also paused for every other tool working on the same project, including Claude Code and Codex CLI.
