# Explore a Session

Open a session card or row to enter **Session trail**, where Faros brings the conversation and recorded activity together.

## Read the Trail

Review the **You** and **Agent** activity alongside available task classifications, tool calls, and **Your mood** readings. Expand text or inspect an event when you need more context. Use **About this data** for the explanation of how the view is assembled.

Mood and task labels are analysis of the available conversation. They can be missing or mistaken, and should not be treated as a definitive assessment of a person or outcome.

The transcript depends on the original local history and the provider's recorded detail. Missing or unavailable transcript content does not establish that no conversation happened.

## Inspect Subagents

When delegation information is available, inspect the subagent activity to see its identity, recorded task, conversation detail, and observed activity.

Observed activity does not establish the subagent's full execution duration or completion status. Some providers or sessions do not expose sufficient delegation information.

## Continue the Work

Use **Go to this session** to return to the original session where supported. Use **Start fresh with context** to begin a new conversation with the available context.

Check the destination and context before continuing. A summary can help you resume, but the current repository and original conversation remain important when decisions or implementation details matter. Available continuation actions depend on the source tool and session.

## Resume from a Session Summary

To pick up earlier work, open **For You → Open sessions**, or browse the **Sessions** feed. Select a session and review its summary, token usage, estimated cost, and cache information. The **Summaries** view allows you to recap where the work stopped before choosing a continuation action.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.desktop.faros.ai/sessions/explore-a-session.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
