# Give the next agent context from your session log

Dec 2025 / 45,054 views / [via X](https://x.com/iannuttall/status/2003030081305039284)

I log my sessions with /end-session to log:

\- overview of what we did
\- files we created/deleted/modified
\- why we made decisions
\- what worked/didn’t work
\- steps for next session

then I run /start-session with new agent and it reads the last log to get the context it needs

> I see sooooo many solutions folks are building to access old coding sessions - I never once had the need for this?
