Pragma Session Restoration

Session restoration helps you return to recent terminal / workspace state after restarting Pragma or reopening a window.

What Restoration Can Bring Back

Depending on settings and session type, Pragma may restore:

• Recent tabs / panes layout
• Working directory context
• Session metadata needed to continue work

Exact behavior can differ for local shells, SSH sessions, and cloud agent environments.

What You Should Know

1. Restoration is convenience, not a backup system. Important work still belongs in git and durable storage.
2. Remote sessions may need to reconnect; restoration cannot invent a live SSH connection if the host is down.
3. Privacy: restored session data is for your account/machine workflow — review privacy if you share a machine.
4. If restoration surprises you (wrong folder, stale tab), disable the feature, restart once, then re-enable after confirming settings.

Tips

• Commit or stash before risky restarts
• For remote work, prefer documented Remote & SSH reconnect flow
• Use Pragma Drive for files that must survive across devices
