Session Management

omx automatically saves your conversation sessions and lets you resume, rewind, or switch between them.

Automatic Saving​

Sessions are saved automatically as you chat. Each session records the full conversation history, model used, and token usage.

Loading a Session​

Resume your last session from the command line:

omx --continue

Or load any previous session through the menu or slash command:

/session

This shows a list of recent sessions. Select one to continue where you left off.

Rewinding​

Made a mistake? Rewind to a previous message:

/rewind

This shows your recent messages. Select one to rewind to that point -- everything after it is discarded.

Compaction​

When your conversation context reaches 80% of the model's limit, omx automatically compacts the session:

  1. The conversation is summarized
  2. Key memory points are extracted
  3. A fresh session starts with the summary injected

You can also trigger compaction manually:

/compact

Server Compaction​

By default, compaction happens on the client side. If you prefer, enable Server compaction in preferences to let the server handle it instead.
