Session Management

Mega Brain’s session management system allows you to save your work and resume exactly where you left off. This guide covers session workflows, context preservation, and best practices.

Session Overview

Sessions preserve:

Current task and status
Pending files and processing queue
Recent operations and results
Important file references
User notes and context

Sessions are stored in /logs/LIVE-SESSION/ with both human-readable Markdown and structured JSON formats.

Saving Sessions

Basic Save

/save

System prompts: “What do you want me to save as context?”

Example: Mid-Processing
Example: Strategic Decision
Example: Completed Work

User input:

"I've ingested 3 Cole Gordon videos and processed 2 of them.
Still need to process the third one and then extract DNA."

Saved session:

# SESSION: 2026-03-06 14:32

## Status
IN_PROGRESS

## Last Task
Processing Cole Gordon materials
- Completed: 2/3 videos
- Pending: 1 video (closing-masterclass-part3.txt)

## Next Steps
1. Process inbox/cole-gordon/MASTERCLASS/closing-masterclass-part3.txt
2. Extract DNA: /extract-dna cole-gordon
3. Verify agent enrichment

## Important Files
- inbox/cole-gordon/MASTERCLASS/closing-masterclass-part3.txt
- knowledge/dossiers/persons/DOSSIER-COLE-GORDON.md

## Notes
User wants to complete Cole Gordon DNA extraction before
moving to Alex Hormozi materials.

User input:

"Just ran a Conclave on commission structure. Decision was
to implement tiered system. Need to create implementation
plan and get CFO approval before executing."

Saved session:

# SESSION: 2026-03-06 16:45

## Status
BLOCKED (waiting for approval)

## Last Task
Conclave deliberation on closer commission structure

## Decision Made
Implement 3-tier commission system:
- <60% close rate: 10%
- 60-70% close rate: 12%  
- >70% close rate: 15%

## Pending Actions
1. Draft implementation plan
2. Get CFO approval
3. Communicate to sales team
4. Update compensation docs

## Important Files
- logs/conclave/session-2026-03-06-commission.md
- agents/cargo/C-LEVEL/MEMORY-CFO.md

## Notes
Conclave confidence was 78%. Devil's Advocate flagged
entitlement spiral risk. Need to include reversion
criteria in implementation plan.

User input:

"Finished processing all Alex Hormozi materials, extracted
DNA, and verified all agents were enriched. Ready to move
to next expert."

Saved session:

# SESSION: 2026-03-06 18:20

## Status
COMPLETED

## Last Task
Complete Alex Hormozi processing pipeline

## Completed Steps
✓ Ingested 5 videos
✓ Processed all 5 through pipeline
✓ Extracted DNA (19 items, weight 0.74)
✓ Verified agent enrichment (CRO, CFO, CLOSER)

## Results
- knowledge/dna/persons/alex-hormozi/
- knowledge/dossiers/persons/DOSSIER-ALEX-HORMOZI.md
- 5 sources: AH001-AH005
- 47 insights extracted

## Next Expert
Sam Ovens (Setterlun) - 3 course modules pending

## Notes
Alex Hormozi DNA is high quality. All heuristics have
numeric thresholds. Ready for production use.

Automatic Saves

The system auto-saves context:

After Pipeline Completion

When /process-jarvis completes, session automatically updates with:

Source processed
Artifacts created
Agent enrichment status

After DNA Extraction

When /extract-dna completes, session records:

DNA quality metrics
Number of items per layer
Average weight

After Conclave

When /conclave completes, session saves:

Decision recommendation
Confidence score
Action items

Resuming Sessions

Basic Resume

/resume

Scenario: Pipeline running, need to stop immediately

# Stop pipeline (Ctrl+C)
^C

# Save current state
/save

Input:

"Pipeline was at Phase 4 (Insight Extraction) when stopped.
Need to rerun from beginning when resuming.

"Conclave recommended tiered commission structure.
Waiting for CEO approval before implementing.
Decision log: logs/conclave/session-2026-03-06.md"

Resume after approval:

/resume
# System reminds you of pending approval
# Continue with implementation

Scenario: Need to switch to urgent task

# Save current work
/save

Input: “Pausing Cole Gordon processing to handle urgent Sam Ovens material.”Work on urgent task:

Session Best Practices

Save Frequently

Save after completing each major step:

After ingesting batch
After processing material
After DNA extraction
Before/after Conclave

Use Descriptive Notes

Include:

What you completed
What’s pending
Any blockers
Context for decisions

Reference File Paths

Always include:

Exact file paths
Source IDs (CG001, AH002)
Artifact locations

Track Dependencies

Note what needs to complete first:

Process before extract DNA
Get approval before implement
Verify before scaling

Troubleshooting Sessions

Common Issues

Issue: Resume shows wrong contextSolution:

# Check current session file
cat logs/LIVE-SESSION/CURRENT-SESSION.md

# If corrupted, restore from history
cp logs/LIVE-SESSION/session-history/2026-03-06.md logs/LIVE-SESSION/CURRENT-SESSION.md

# Resume again
/resume

Issue: Lost progress (no recent save)Recovery:

# Check JARVIS briefing for last processing
/jarvis-briefing

# Check file registry for what was processed
cat system/REGISTRY/file-registry.json

# Check inbox for pending files
/inbox

# Reconstruct context and save
/save

Issue: Multiple overlapping sessionsSolution:

# Review session history
ls -lt logs/LIVE-SESSION/session-history/

# Pick the correct session
cat logs/LIVE-SESSION/session-history/[date].md

# Copy to current
cp logs/LIVE-SESSION/session-history/[date].md logs/LIVE-SESSION/CURRENT-SESSION.md

# Resume
/resume
