How session capture works
Worsley records each session as it happens, in your browser and in your terminal, and uploads it securely.
Worsley captures in two places. In your browser, when you use a supported AI tool, the extension reads the conversation on the page as it develops. In your terminal, once you connect Worsley to your terminal, it captures the AI sessions you run there. Either way, each prompt and response is recorded in order, as a sequence of turns.
In your browser
What happens behind the scenes
- 1A turn completes in your AI tool.
- 2The extension records it and saves it in your browser first, so nothing is lost if your connection drops.
- 3It uploads the turn to Worsley over an encrypted connection.
- 4If an upload fails, the extension keeps the data and retries automatically about once a minute until it succeeds.
Uploads are safe to repeat, so a retry never creates duplicate turns.
