The session sidebar

The left sidebar lists all your past sessions. You can switch between a time-based view (Today / Yesterday / This week / Older) and a type-based view (Chats / Skills / Workflows) using the toggle icon in the sidebar header. Filter tabs let you narrow the list to Chats, Skills, or Workflows at a glance.

Searching sessions

Use the search bar at the top of the sidebar to find sessions. It supports:
QueryResult
Any textMatches session title, active skill name, or active workflow name
type:chatShows only plain chat sessions
type:skillShows only skill sessions
type:workflowShows only workflow sessions
@todayShows sessions updated today

Session actions

Right-click any session to open the context menu:
ActionDescription
RenameEnter a new title and press Enter to save.
PinPinned sessions stay at the top of the sidebar regardless of recency. Click again to unpin.
DuplicateCreates a copy of the session with the same title and type.
ExportSaves basic session metadata as a JSON file.
DeleteRemoves the session and all its messages from the database.

Persistence

Every session and every message is stored locally in mira.db (SQLite). Sessions survive:
  • App restarts
  • Engine restarts
  • System reboots
Nothing is ever synced to a cloud service.

Resuming a session

Click any session in the sidebar to open it. The full message history loads instantly. If a session had a Skill or Workflow active when it was created, those are shown in the session context bar. You can change or detach them from there.

Deleting all history

To remove all sessions and messages at once, go to Settings → Reset Data and click Clear All History. A confirmation dialog is shown — this action is irreversible.
Deleting history also removes all document associations. Uploaded document files on disk are not deleted — only the parsed chunks and session links stored in mira.db are removed.
