Sessions

A session is one conversation, with its tasks. Sessions belong to the service, not to a window: the terminal and the browser show the same sessions, live, and either can continue what the other started. Closing a window never stops a task.

Opening

Where	How
Terminal	`/sessions` or `ctrl+x l`; `ctrl+p` also lists them
Browser	The navigator down the left, every project with its sessions; `Alt+B` for every session
Starting the terminal	`albert-mini -c` continues the latest session in this folder; `albert-mini -s <id>` opens one

A new session is named after its first message.

Managing

Action	Terminal	Browser	Command line
Rename	`/rename`, or `ctrl+r` in the list	The title	`albert-mini sessions rename <id> "title"`
Pin	`ctrl+t` in the list	The session's `⋯` in the navigator, or Every session (`Alt+B`)
Stop	`/stop`, or `Esc`	Stop in the session's head, or the stop button beside it in the navigator
Archive (kept, off the list)		The session's `⋯` in the navigator
Fork (a new session with the same messages)	`/fork`	`Ctrl+K`, Fork this session
Export as JSON	`/export [file]`	`Ctrl+K`, Export this session as JSON	`albert-mini sessions export <id> [file]`
Import	`/import <file>`	`Ctrl+K`, Import a session from JSON	`albert-mini sessions import <file>`
Delete	`ctrl+d` in the list	The session's `⋯` in the navigator, or Every session (`Alt+B`)	`albert-mini sessions delete <id>`
Take a project off the list		The project's `⋯` in the navigator, Remove from the list…

Deleting a session removes its messages; its tasks and their evidence stay. Taking a project off the list archives its sessions (Every session still has them) and never touches its folder. Sessions run on their own: while one works you can open, use and stop the others. Stop answers at once, even in the middle of a long step of the model's: the session is free again straight away, and that step ends in the background.

Terminal

albert-mini sessions                    # newest first
albert-mini sessions --search discount  # titles and message text
albert-mini sessions show <id>

Leaving and coming back

When you leave the terminal, it prints the session and the exact command that opens it again:

Fix the discount in cart totals (4f1c2e7a90b3)
It is waiting for you to decide, in either interface.
Continue it: albert-mini --session 4f1c2e7a90b3
