* [BUG] org-clock-in opens buffers for all agenda files

I just tried to clock in to a task for the first time
in ... a while, and was immediately accosted with
hundreds of buffers being opened.

This seems to be because org-clock-in somehow
calls org-agenda or org-agenda-prepare or something
similar, however I cannot find the call site.

Is there a way to disable this so that clocking does not
destroy my emacs buffer state by starting org-agenda?

Thanks!
Tom

This is because Org is checking if you have any dangling clocks present.

See org-clock-auto-clock-resolution

Seems like a reasonable default.

Perfect solution for my case. Thanks!

I am a bit confused and I am probably missing some context.

The documentation of `org-clock-auto-clock-resolution` states: "When to automatically resolve open clocks found in Org buffers." and the options are "Never", "Always", "When no clock is running".

I think I understand the idea behind this variable but I can't relate that to a solution of the problem stated.

Why checking for dangling clocks in all files in `org-directory`? Is it a common usecase to have clocks split in different files? I'd like `org-clock-in` to close any running clocks but only check the file open in current buffer and not in all .org files in `org-directory`.

Thanks for any help!

Not in `org-directory', but all agenda files + all open Org buffers.

Yes, for some users.

This is currently not possible.
Patches welcome though.
