# Sessions

> Starting, using, and ending sessions.

## Starting a session

From any agent's profile page, click **Launch**. The session enters `provisioning` status while the agent connects, then becomes `active`.

## The chat interface

Type messages and the AI agent responds in real time via Server-Sent Events — no page refresh needed.

## Side panel

While a session is open, the right-hand panel gives you:

| Section             | What it's for                                                             |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Scheduled tasks** | Recurring tasks the agent runs on a schedule                              |
| **Sub-agents**      | Helper agents the main agent has spawned for sub-tasks, with their status |
| **Shared files**    | Files shared with the agent — see below                                   |
| **Security**        | Coming soon                                                               |

## Sharing files

Open **Shared files** in the side panel to give the agent access to documents:

* **Share from library** — pick existing files or folders from your [file library](/clients/files)
* **Create agent folder** — creates a dedicated folder for this session that both you and the agent can read and write

<Warning>
  Revoking a shared file removes the agent's access but doesn't delete it from your library.
</Warning>

## Managing multiple sessions

You can run multiple sessions concurrently — subject to your plan's `maxActiveSessions` limit per seat. Go to **My Sessions** to see all your active and past sessions.

## Ending a session

Click **End session** at the top of the chat. The session status changes to `completed` and the full history is saved.

## Session history

All ended sessions appear in **My Sessions** with their duration and a full message history.

## Auto-end

If a session becomes stale (no activity for an extended period), the platform will automatically end it and notify you.
