# Linking Sessions and Tracked Items

### Session Linking

Items created or modified during AI sessions are automatically linked to that session. This happens without any extra effort:

* Ask the agent to create a bug, and the bug is linked to the current session
* Ask the agent to update a task's status, and the session is recorded in that task's history
* The agent discovers an issue and logs it -- the session link is created

### Navigating Between Items and Sessions

The connection is bidirectional:

* **From an item:** The detail view shows all linked sessions. Click any session to jump back to that conversation.
* **From a session:** The agent sidebar panel shows tracker items linked to the current session. Click any item to open its detail view.

### Linked Tracker Items Sidebar

In agent mode, a dedicated sidebar panel shows all tracker items associated with the current session. This panel updates as the agent creates or modifies items during the conversation, giving you a live view of the work being tracked.

### Why This Matters

Session and commit linking close the loop between planning and execution. You can start with an idea, track it through a decision, assign it as a task, link it to the AI session that implemented it, and see the commits that shipped it -- all from the item's detail view.
