+# Session File Format
+
+Sessions are stored as JSONL (JSON Lines) files. Each line is a JSON object with a `type` field. Session entries form a tree structure via `id`/`parentId` fields, enabling in-place branching without creating new files.
+
+## File Location
+
+```
+~/.pi/agent/sessions/--<path>--/<timestamp>_<uuid>.jsonl
+```
+
+Where `<path>` is the working directory with `/` replaced by `-`.
+
+## Deleting Sessions
+
+Sessions can be removed by deleting their `.jsonl` files under `~/.pi/agent/sessions/`.
+
+Pi also supports deleting sessions interactively from `/resume` (select a session and press `Ctrl+D`, then confirm). When available, pi uses the `trash` CLI to avoid permanent deletion.
+
+## Session Version
+
+Sessions have a version field in the header:
+
+- **Version 1**: Linear entry sequence (legacy, auto-migrated on load)
+- **Version 2**: Tree structure with `id`/`parentId` linking
+- **Version 3**: Renamed `hookMessage` role to `custom` (extensions unification)
+
+Existing sessions are automatically migrated to the current version (v3) when loaded.

+
+## Message Types
+
+Session entries contain `AgentMessage` objects. Understanding these types is essential for parsing sessions and writing extensions.
+
+### Content Blocks
+
+Messages contain arrays of typed content blocks:
+
+```typescript
+interface TextContent {
+  type: "text";
+  text: string;
+}
+
+interface ImageContent {
+  type: "image";
+  data: string;      // base64 encoded
+  mimeType: string;  // e.g., "image/jpeg", "image/png"
+}
+
+interface ThinkingContent {
+  type: "thinking";
+  thinking: string;
+}
+
+interface ToolCall {
+  type: "toolCall";
+  id: string;
+  name: string;
+  arguments: Record<string, any>;
+}
+```
+
+### Base Message Types (from pi-ai)
+
+```typescript
+interface UserMessage {
+  role: "user";
+  content: string | (TextContent | ImageContent)[];
+  timestamp: number;  // Unix ms
+}
+
+interface AssistantMessage {
+  role: "assistant";
+  content: (TextContent | ThinkingContent | ToolCall)[];
+  api: string;
+  provider: string;
+  model: string;
+  usage: Usage;
+  stopReason: "stop" | "length" | "toolUse" | "error" | "aborted";
+  errorMessage?: string;
+  timestamp: number;
+}
+
+interface ToolResultMessage {
+  role: "toolResult";
+  toolCallId: string;
+  toolName: string;
+  content: (TextContent | ImageContent)[];
+  details?: any;      // Tool-specific metadata
+  isError: boolean;
+  timestamp: number;
+}
+
+interface Usage {
+  input: number;
+  output: number;
+  cacheRead: number;
+  cacheWrite: number;
+  totalTokens: number;
+  cost: {
+    input: number;
+    output: number;
+    cacheRead: number;
+    cacheWrite: number;
+    total: number;
+  };
+}
+```
+
+### Extended Message Types (from pi-coding-agent)
+
+```typescript
+interface BashExecutionMessage {
+  role: "bashExecution";
+  command: string;
+  output: string;
+  exitCode: number | undefined;
+  cancelled: boolean;
+  truncated: boolean;
+  fullOutputPath?: string;
+  excludeFromContext?: boolean;  // true for !! prefix commands
+  timestamp: number;
+}
+
+interface CustomMessage {
+  role: "custom";
+  customType: string;            // Extension identifier
+  content: string | (TextContent | ImageContent)[];
+  display: boolean;              // Show in TUI
+  details?: any;                 // Extension-specific metadata
+  timestamp: number;
+}
+
+interface BranchSummaryMessage {
+  role: "branchSummary";
+  summary: string;
+  fromId: string;                // Entry we branched from
+  timestamp: number;
+}
+
+interface CompactionSummaryMessage {
+  role: "compactionSummary";
+  summary: string;
+  tokensBefore: number;
+  timestamp: number;
+}
+```
+
+### AgentMessage Union
+
+```typescript
+type AgentMessage =
+  | UserMessage
+  | AssistantMessage
+  | ToolResultMessage
+  | BashExecutionMessage
+  | CustomMessage
+  | BranchSummaryMessage
+  | CompactionSummaryMessage;
+```
+
+## Entry Base
+
+All entries (except `SessionHeader`) extend `SessionEntryBase`:
+
+```typescript
+interface SessionEntryBase {
+  type: string;
+  id: string;           // 8-char hex ID
+  parentId: string | null;  // Parent entry ID (null for first entry)
+  timestamp: string;    // ISO timestamp
+}
+```
+
+## Entry Types
+
+### SessionHeader
+
+First line of the file. Metadata only, not part of the tree (no `id`/`parentId`).
+
+```json
+{"type":"session","version":3,"id":"uuid","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:00:00.000Z","cwd":"/path/to/project"}
+```
+
+For sessions with a parent (created via `/fork`, `/clone`, or `newSession({ parentSession })`):
+
+```json
+{"type":"session","version":3,"id":"uuid","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:00:00.000Z","cwd":"/path/to/project","parentSession":"/path/to/original/session.jsonl"}
+```
+
+### SessionMessageEntry
+
+A message in the conversation. The `message` field contains an `AgentMessage`.
+
+```json
+{"type":"message","id":"a1b2c3d4","parentId":"prev1234","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:00:01.000Z","message":{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}}
+{"type":"message","id":"b2c3d4e5","parentId":"a1b2c3d4","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:00:02.000Z","message":{"role":"assistant","content":[{"type":"text","text":"Hi!"}],"provider":"anthropic","model":"claude-sonnet-4-5","usage":{...},"stopReason":"stop"}}
+{"type":"message","id":"c3d4e5f6","parentId":"b2c3d4e5","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:00:03.000Z","message":{"role":"toolResult","toolCallId":"call_123","toolName":"bash","content":[{"type":"text","text":"output"}],"isError":false}}
+```
+
+### ModelChangeEntry
+
+Emitted when the user switches models mid-session.
+
+```json
+{"type":"model_change","id":"d4e5f6g7","parentId":"c3d4e5f6","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:05:00.000Z","provider":"openai","modelId":"gpt-4o"}
+```
+
+### ThinkingLevelChangeEntry
+
+Emitted when the user changes the thinking/reasoning level.
+
+```json
+{"type":"thinking_level_change","id":"e5f6g7h8","parentId":"d4e5f6g7","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:06:00.000Z","thinkingLevel":"high"}
+```
+
+### CompactionEntry
+
+Created when context is compacted. Stores a summary of earlier messages.
+
+```json
+{"type":"compaction","id":"f6g7h8i9","parentId":"e5f6g7h8","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:10:00.000Z","summary":"User discussed X, Y, Z...","firstKeptEntryId":"c3d4e5f6","tokensBefore":50000}
+```
+
+Optional fields:
+- `details`: Implementation-specific data (e.g., `{ readFiles: string[], modifiedFiles: string[] }` for default, or custom data for extensions)
+- `fromHook`: `true` if generated by an extension, `false`/`undefined` if pi-generated (legacy field name)
+
+### BranchSummaryEntry
+
+Created when switching branches via `/tree` with an LLM generated summary of the left branch up to the common ancestor. Captures context from the abandoned path.
+
+```json
+{"type":"branch_summary","id":"g7h8i9j0","parentId":"a1b2c3d4","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:15:00.000Z","fromId":"f6g7h8i9","summary":"Branch explored approach A..."}
+```
+
+Optional fields:
+- `details`: File tracking data (`{ readFiles: string[], modifiedFiles: string[] }`) for default, or custom data for extensions
+- `fromHook`: `true` if generated by an extension, `false`/`undefined` if pi-generated (legacy field name)
+
+### CustomEntry
+
+Extension state persistence. Does NOT participate in LLM context.
+
+```json
+{"type":"custom","id":"h8i9j0k1","parentId":"g7h8i9j0","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:20:00.000Z","customType":"my-extension","data":{"count":42}}
+```
+
+Use `customType` to identify your extension's entries on reload.
+
+### CustomMessageEntry
+
+Extension-injected messages that DO participate in LLM context.
+
+```json
+{"type":"custom_message","id":"i9j0k1l2","parentId":"h8i9j0k1","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:25:00.000Z","customType":"my-extension","content":"Injected context...","display":true}
+```
+
+Fields:
+- `content`: String or `(TextContent | ImageContent)[]` (same as UserMessage)
+- `display`: `true` = show in TUI with distinct styling, `false` = hidden
+- `details`: Optional extension-specific metadata (not sent to LLM)
+
+### LabelEntry
+
+User-defined bookmark/marker on an entry.
+
+```json
+{"type":"label","id":"j0k1l2m3","parentId":"i9j0k1l2","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:30:00.000Z","targetId":"a1b2c3d4","label":"checkpoint-1"}
+```
+
+Set `label` to `undefined` to clear a label.
+
+### SessionInfoEntry
+
+Session metadata (e.g., user-defined display name). Set via `/name` command or `pi.setSessionName()` in extensions.
+
+```json
+{"type":"session_info","id":"k1l2m3n4","parentId":"j0k1l2m3","timestamp":"2024-12-03T14:35:00.000Z","name":"Refactor auth module"}
+```
+
+The session name is displayed in the session selector (`/resume`) instead of the first message when set.
+
+## Tree Structure
+
+Entries form a tree:
+- First entry has `parentId: null`
+- Each subsequent entry points to its parent via `parentId`
+- Branching creates new children from an earlier entry
+- The "leaf" is the current position in the tree
+
+```
+[user msg] ─── [assistant] ─── [user msg] ─── [assistant] ─┬─ [user msg] ← current leaf
+                                                            │
+                                                            └─ [branch_summary] ─── [user msg] ← alternate branch
+```
+
+## Context Building
+
+`buildSessionContext()` walks from the current leaf to the root, producing the message list for the LLM:
+
+1. Collects all entries on the path
+2. Extracts current model and thinking level settings
+3. If a `CompactionEntry` is on the path:
+   - Emits the summary first
+   - Then messages from `firstKeptEntryId` to compaction
+   - Then messages after compaction
+4. Converts `BranchSummaryEntry` and `CustomMessageEntry` to appropriate message formats
+
+## Parsing Example
+
+```typescript
+import { readFileSync } from "fs";
+
+const lines = readFileSync("session.jsonl", "utf8").trim().split("\n");
+
+for (const line of lines) {
+  const entry = JSON.parse(line);
+
+  switch (entry.type) {
+    case "session":
+      console.log(`Session v${entry.version ?? 1}: ${entry.id}`);
+      break;
+    case "message":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] ${entry.message.role}: ${JSON.stringify(entry.message.content)}`);
+      break;
+    case "compaction":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] Compaction: ${entry.tokensBefore} tokens summarized`);
+      break;
+    case "branch_summary":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] Branch from ${entry.fromId}`);
+      break;
+    case "custom":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] Custom (${entry.customType}): ${JSON.stringify(entry.data)}`);
+      break;
+    case "custom_message":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] Extension message (${entry.customType}): ${entry.content}`);
+      break;
+    case "label":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] Label "${entry.label}" on ${entry.targetId}`);
+      break;
+    case "model_change":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] Model: ${entry.provider}/${entry.modelId}`);
+      break;
+    case "thinking_level_change":
+      console.log(`[${entry.id}] Thinking: ${entry.thinkingLevel}`);
+      break;
+  }
+}
+```

+# Sessions
+
+Pi saves conversations as sessions so you can continue work, branch from earlier turns, and revisit previous paths.
+
+## Session Storage
+
+Sessions auto-save to `~/.pi/agent/sessions/`, organized by working directory. Each session is a JSONL file with a tree structure.
+
+```bash
+pi -c                  # Continue most recent session
+pi -r                  # Browse and select from past sessions
+pi --no-session        # Ephemeral mode; do not save
+pi --session <path|id> # Use a specific session file or partial session ID
+pi --fork <path|id>    # Fork a session file or partial session ID into a new session
+```
+
+Use `/session` in interactive mode to see the current session file, session ID, message count, tokens, and cost.
+
+For the JSONL file format and SessionManager API, see [Session Format](session-format.md).
+
+## Session Commands
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `/resume` | Browse and select previous sessions |
+| `/new` | Start a new session |
+| `/name <name>` | Set the current session display name |
+| `/session` | Show session info |
+| `/tree` | Navigate the current session tree |
+| `/fork` | Create a new session from a previous user message |
+| `/clone` | Duplicate the current active branch into a new session |
+| `/compact [prompt]` | Summarize older context; see [Compaction](compaction.md) |
+| `/export [file]` | Export session to HTML |
+| `/share` | Upload as private GitHub gist with shareable HTML link |
+
+## Resuming and Deleting Sessions
+
+`/resume` opens an interactive session picker for the current project. `pi -r` opens the same picker at startup.
+
+In the picker you can:
+
+- search by typing
+- toggle path display with Ctrl+P
+- toggle sort mode with Ctrl+S
+- filter to named sessions with Ctrl+N
+- rename with Ctrl+R
+- delete with Ctrl+D, then confirm
+
+When available, pi uses the `trash` CLI for deletion instead of permanently removing files.
+
+## Naming Sessions
+
+Use `/name <name>` to set a human-readable session name:
+
+```text
+/name Refactor auth module
+```
+
+Named sessions are easier to find in `/resume` and `pi -r`.
+
+## Branching with `/tree`
+
+Sessions are stored as trees. Every entry has an `id` and `parentId`, and the current position is the active leaf. `/tree` lets you jump to any previous point and continue from there without creating a new file.
+
+<p align="center"><img src="images/tree-view.png" alt="Tree View" width="600"></p>
+
+Example shape:
+
+```text
+├─ user: "Hello, can you help..."
+│  └─ assistant: "Of course! I can..."
+│     ├─ user: "Let's try approach A..."
+│     │  └─ assistant: "For approach A..."
+│     │     └─ user: "That worked..."  ← active
+│     └─ user: "Actually, approach B..."
+│        └─ assistant: "For approach B..."
+```
+
+### Tree Controls
+
+| Key | Action |
+|-----|--------|
+| ↑/↓ | Navigate visible entries |
+| ←/→ | Page up/down |
+| Ctrl+←/Ctrl+→ or Alt+←/Alt+→ | Fold/unfold or jump between branch segments |
+| Shift+L | Set or clear a label on the selected entry |
+| Shift+T | Toggle label timestamps |
+| Enter | Select entry |
+| Escape/Ctrl+C | Cancel |
+| Ctrl+O | Cycle filter mode |
+
+Filter modes are: default, no-tools, user-only, labeled-only, and all. Configure the default with `treeFilterMode` in [Settings](settings.md).
+
+### Selection Behavior
+
+Selecting a user or custom message:
+
+1. Moves the leaf to the selected message's parent.
+2. Places the selected message text in the editor.
+3. Lets you edit and resubmit, creating a new branch.
+
+Selecting an assistant, tool, compaction, or other non-user entry:
+
+1. Moves the leaf to that entry.
+2. Leaves the editor empty.
+3. Lets you continue from that point.
+
+Selecting the root user message resets the leaf to an empty conversation and places the original prompt in the editor.
+
+## `/tree`, `/fork`, and `/clone`
+
+| Feature | `/tree` | `/fork` | `/clone` |
+|---------|---------|---------|----------|
+| Output | Same session file | New session file | New session file |
+| View | Full tree | User-message selector | Current active branch |
+| Typical use | Explore alternatives in place | Start a new session from an earlier prompt | Duplicate current work before continuing |
+| Summary | Optional branch summary | None | None |
+
+Use `/tree` when you want to keep alternatives together. Use `/fork` or `/clone` when you want a separate session file.
+
+## Branch Summaries
+
+When `/tree` switches away from one branch to another, pi can summarize the abandoned branch and attach that summary at the new position. This preserves important context from the path you left without replaying the whole branch.
+
+When prompted, choose one of:
+
+1. no summary
+2. summarize with the default prompt
+3. summarize with custom focus instructions
+
+See [Compaction](compaction.md) for branch summarization internals and extension hooks.
+
+## Session Format
+
+Session files are JSONL and contain message entries, model changes, thinking-level changes, labels, compactions, branch summaries, and extension entries.
+
+For parsers, extensions, SDK usage, and the full SessionManager API, see [Session Format](session-format.md).
