Sessions

Every session is recorded as a JSONL transcript under ~/.nori/cli/transcripts/, independent of the agent’s own storage. On exit, Nori prints the exact command to pick up where you left off.

Resume

Section titled “Resume”
Terminal window
nori resume            # picker, sessions for the current directory
nori resume --last     # newest session
nori resume <uuid>     # a specific session
nori resume --all      # across all directories

In the TUI: /resume, or /resume-viewonly for a read-only transcript.

Rewind and recover

Section titled “Rewind and recover”
  • /fork — rewind the conversation to an earlier message and branch from it
  • /undo — ask Nori to undo a turn’s changes (Esc also offers undo)
  • /compact — summarize the conversation to stay under the context limit
  • /new — fresh chat without restarting

Transcript format

Section titled “Transcript format”

The on-disk transcript schema is a documented, stable contract for third-party tools — see architecture.
