Technical Signals & Architecture

Session Pressure & Load

  • • Context load: Shows current context usage from the latest available measurement.
  • • Compaction & pressure: Shows context usage before → after the latest compaction, with a pressure status based on the load that remains.
  • • Session size: Tracks accumulated session data in MiB, as last read.

One-Click Handoff

  • • Structured context: Carries goals, constraints, decisions, completed work, and next steps into a fresh task.
  • • Handoff readiness: Shows when the handoff is prepared. You decide when to switch.
  • • One-click start: Opens a fresh task with the prepared context, without rebuilding it by hand.

Session Activity

  • • Completed & interrupted turns: Counts finished and interrupted response cycles—not individual tool calls.
  • • Compactions: Counts recorded context compressions in the session.
  • • Recorded token use: Shows cumulative token usage across completed and interrupted turns.

Open-Source Bridge & Privacy

  • • Sanitized activity events: Removes prompts, raw shell commands, and outputs from hook status messages.
  • • Verifiable builds: The bridge and network viewer are open source, with independently verifiable GitHub builds.
  • • Local session monitoring: Reads session data and stores task summaries on your PC. Updates and optional bug reports use network access.
