98-121: Sessions documentation is well-structured; consider minor clarifications on session persistence semantics.

The Sessions feature section is clearly written and follows the documentation structure well. The getting-started steps are concrete and actionable. However, a few details could be strengthened:

  1. Line 119 ("Sessions stick to the current environment or VPS target"): The phrasing is slightly ambiguous. Clarify whether this means sessions are environment-scoped, or if a session can be reconnected from different environments.

  2. Line 120 (idle reclamation): This is important operational information that could affect user workflows, but it's tucked in the notes. Consider elevating this or providing more detail about the timeout policy (e.g., "idle after X minutes").

  3. Verify feature claims: Ensure the documented behaviors (auto-reconnect after page reloads, background execution, crash-safe reattachment) match the actual implementation, as these are strong reliability guarantees.

Consider minor clarifications:

  • Rephrase line 119 to be more explicit, for example: "Each session is tied to its target environment or VPS; reconnecting from a different environment creates a new session."
  • Expand line 120 with an example: "Idle sessions may be reclaimed automatically after [time period] based on server policy; consider saving important context before stepping away."
