Abstract This contribution re-visits fields, particle motion, and spin precession in the AGS helical polarization snakes. The work was undertaken in preparation of orbit and spin modeling for future polarized proton and helion runs at RHIC. The investigations include re-computation of 3-D OPERA field maps of the helical snakes and particle and spin tracking. There is a series of sub-products of this study, amongst others, the appropriate settings of the AGS cold snake when changing its strength, cold snake settings for polarized helion programs, non-linear coupling in the AGS, the transport of the stable polarization axis from the AGS to RHIC injection kickers, and in addition, a series of high accuracy 3-D field maps have been produced, in view of long-term tracking in the AGS for beam and polarization transmission studies.
