FAQPage Schema
How do I restore my coding context automatically when I start a new session?▼

Session-start automation restores your complete coding context by recalling recent checkpoints and active plans from up to 7 days prior, re-indexing your workspace if needed, and presenting workflow recommendations—ensuring you resume exactly where you left off without manual setup.

What happens to my workspace indexing and memory when I restart my coding session?▼

Workspace indexing and memory are automatically refreshed at session start: code intelligence is re-indexed for current state, recent checkpoints are recalled through memory systems, and active plans are loaded so context is complete and ready.

Can session-start context restoration work after time away from a project?▼

Yes, context restoration retrieves checkpoints up to 7 days old, re-analyzes your last active task and current plan, and suggests next workflow steps—making it effective after extended breaks or context switches.

How does session-start automation decide what workflow to suggest next?▼

Workflow suggestions analyze your restored last task, active plan state, and workspace context to propose the best next steps, guiding your immediate actions without requiring manual decision-making.

Do I need to manually configure session-start context restoration?▼

No, session-start context restoration is mandatory and activates automatically—it requires no configuration and runs on every session start to restore memory, index workspace, and propose workflow guidance.
