Session Timeline

A chronological log of every operation the agent performed.

The Session Timeline gives you a complete, chronological view of every operation the agent performed — from the first file read to the final commit message.

What it shows

  • File operations — reads, writes, creates, deletes with full paths.
  • Bash commands — every terminal command and its exit code.
  • Agent messages — reasoning steps and summary messages.
  • Tool calls — API calls, search queries, and tool invocations.

Filtering

Use the timeline filters to focus on specific operation types. Common workflows:

  • Filter to writes only to see exactly which files changed.
  • Filter to bash commands to verify test runs and builds.
  • Filter to messages to follow the agent's reasoning chain.

Spotting problems

The timeline highlights moments where the agent changed course, retried failed commands, or spent time reading files it never modified — common signs of confusion or scope creep.
