Sessions View
The Sessions view is the primary interface for browsing your synced coding sessions. It displays a filterable, searchable, sortable list of every session from every connected tool.
Session data model
Every session in OpenSync is stored with this structure:
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|
title | string | Auto-generated from the first user message. Can be edited. |
externalId | string | Unique ID from the originating tool. Used for dedup during sync. |
source | string | Plugin identifier: “opencode”, “claude-code”, “codex-cli”, “cursor”, etc. |
model | string | AI model name (e.g., “claude-sonnet-4-20250514”, “gpt-4o”, “o3-mini”). |
provider | string | Model provider (e.g., “anthropic”, “openai”). |
projectPath | string | Absolute path to the project directory. |
projectName | string | Last segment of the project path. |
promptTokens | number | Total input tokens across all messages. |
completionTokens | number | Total output tokens across all messages. |
totalTokens | number | Sum of prompt and completion tokens. |
cost | number | Estimated USD cost based on model pricing. |
messageCount | number | Number of messages in the conversation. |
durationMs | number | Total session duration in milliseconds. |
isPublic | boolean | Whether the session has a public share link. |
publicSlug | string | URL slug for the public view (if enabled). |
searchableText | string | Concatenated text from title and messages, used for full-text search. |
summary | string | AI-generated session summary (if available). |
Browsing sessions
Sessions are listed in reverse chronological order by default. Each card in the list shows the title, source icon, model, message count, token count, cost, and time ago.
Pagination loads 25 sessions at a time. Scroll to the bottom to load more.
Filtering
Use the filter bar above the session list to narrow results.
By source
Click the source dropdown to select one or more tools:
- OpenCode
- Claude Code
- Codex CLI
- Cursor
- Factory Droid
- Pi
Only sources that have at least one session appear in the dropdown.
By date range
Select a preset or custom date range:
| Preset | Range |
|---|
| Today | Sessions created since midnight |
| Last 7 days | Sessions from the past week |
| Last 30 days | Sessions from the past month |
| All time | No date filter |
By search
The search input runs a full-text query against sessions.searchableText. This field contains the session title concatenated with all message text content.
Search is prefix-matched, so typing “refact” will find sessions containing “refactoring”.
Sorting
Click the column headers to sort by:
| Column | Default direction | What it sorts |
|---|
| Date | Descending (newest first) | sessions.createdAt |
| Tokens | Descending (most first) | sessions.totalTokens |
| Cost | Descending (highest first) | sessions.cost |
| Messages | Descending (most first) | sessions.messageCount |
Session detail view
Click a session card to open its detail panel. The detail view has these sections:
Conversation
The full message history rendered in a chat layout. Each message shows:
- Role badge (User, Assistant, System, Tool)
- Text content with syntax highlighting for code blocks
- Token count per message (prompt tokens for user messages, completion tokens for assistant messages)
- Timestamp relative to session start
Tool messages display the tool name and output. System messages are collapsed by default.
Message parts
Each message can have multiple parts stored in the parts table. Parts represent distinct content blocks:
| Part type | Description |
|---|
text | Plain text content |
tool-call | A function call with name and arguments |
tool-result | The output returned by a tool |
- Source and model
- Project name and path
- Total tokens (prompt/completion breakdown)
- Cost estimate
- Duration
- Created and last updated timestamps
- Eval status (if tagged)
Session actions
Copy
The Copy button copies the entire conversation as formatted markdown, suitable for pasting into documentation or sharing.
Export
Export a single session in these formats:
- DeepEval JSON for the DeepEval evaluation framework
- OpenAI Evals JSONL for OpenAI’s evals format
- Plain text for human reading
See Evals Export for details on each format.
Share
Toggle Public to generate a public URL for the session. Anyone with the link can view the conversation. The URL uses the publicSlug field.
Public sessions are read-only. Viewers cannot modify or delete them.
Delete
Permanently deletes the session and all associated messages, message parts, and embeddings. This cannot be undone.
Deleted sessions and their messages, parts, and embeddings are permanently removed from the database. Export important sessions before deleting.
Bulk actions
Select multiple sessions using the checkboxes on the left side of each card, then use the bulk action toolbar:
- Export selected downloads all selected sessions in your chosen format
- Delete selected permanently removes all selected sessions
