Sessions

The Sessions view is where you see how you actually work with your agents, one session at a time, rather than as totals. Find a session, open it, and read what happened in it.

Search and filters

The list down the left shows your sessions, newest first. Each entry shows its title, when it ran, its project and its token, interaction and task counts. The toolbar across the top narrows the list:

  • Search matches titles, projects and sources, and (when you keep session text, the default) the words inside your conversations and the summaries Argus writes. A match shows a short snippet with the hit highlighted.
  • Labels narrows to the sessions carrying the labels you pick. Choose match any or match all when you pick more than one.
  • Date limits the list to a range, with quick presets or your own From and To dates.
  • Sources limits the list to a single agent.

The reset button next to the filters clears them back to the last 30 days and all sources. If you open Sessions by clicking a project or source on another view, the list arrives already narrowed to it, and the project appears as a pill you can remove.

TIP

Press / or Cmd+K (Ctrl+K on Windows) to jump to the search box. With a session open, j and k step to the next and previous session in the list.

The Sessions view: the session list on the left with the search, labels, date and source toolbar.

Labeling and hiding sessions

Two ways to organize the list: label the sessions you want to group, and hide the ones you don't want to see.

  • Labels. Open a session and use Add Label to tag it. Create a new label on the spot or pick one you've used before, and rename or delete labels from the same menu. Labels show as chips on the session and in the list, and the toolbar's Labels filter narrows to them.
  • Hiding. The Hide button on a session removes it from the list and from search. Open a hidden session and Unhide it to bring it back.

Bulk actions

Hold Cmd (or Ctrl) and click to pick sessions one at a time, or hold Shift and click to select a range. Select all picks every session in view and offers to extend to every session that matches your current filter. With two or more selected, the right pane switches to bulk actions, so you can label them all at once or hide them all.

Inside a session

Open a session and the right pane shows what Argus found in it. The top of the pane has its source, project, when it ran and how long it lasted, then the title and a short summary. Below that are three tabs.

A session's Overview tab: stat cards, the tasks in the session, and the models, skills and tools it used.

Overview

Stat cards summarize the session: total tokens, interactions, tasks (once interpreted), skills used and tools used. Below them:

  • Tasks breaks the session into the tasks you worked on, each with how it turned out. They appear once you turn on task interpretation in Settings; until then this reads "Interpretation pending." Click a task to expand it in place, or open it in the Timeline to read that stretch of the session. See Tasks.
  • Models, Skills and Tools list what the session drew on, with the tools it called most.

Timeline

The Timeline reads the session back in order, grouped into the tasks you worked on, so you can follow the back-and-forth between you and the agent.

Details

The Details tab holds the rest: the friction signals in the session (interruptions, tool actions you declined, compactions and turn timings, for Claude sessions), the full table of tools the session used and the files the agent read or changed.

Refresh

If a session has grown since Argus last indexed it, the Refresh button at the top re-reads it from disk and updates everything on the page.
