# Example Operator Session This example uses offline mode and skips remote hub calls for a local smoke. In normal repo work, omit `--no-hub` so the shell reads State Hub orientation. ```text $ cya shell --offline --no-hub cya shell Session: cya-20260623-101500-1a2b3c4d Artifact: ~/.config/cya/sessions/cya-20260623-101500-1a2b3c4d.jsonl State Hub remote orientation not available. History lines: 0 Type /help for commands, /exit to finish. cya> summarize what changed in this repo ... standard orchestrator response ... cya> /explain ... context envelope, memory, shell history status, hub summary, and hints ... cya> /hub ... active workstreams or offline notes ... cya> /export-session Exported session summary: ~/.config/cya/sessions/cya-...-summary.json cya> /exit Session saved: ~/.config/cya/sessions/cya-...jsonl ``` For history-aware continuity, opt in explicitly: ```bash cya shell --with-history ``` The history context is capped, redacted, and shown in `/explain`. Secret values should still be routed through the approved custody path, not pasted into the session. State Hub writes require a slash command and interactive confirmation: ```text cya> /hub log "Implemented CYA-WP-0007 shell skeleton and tests" Post progress note to http://127.0.0.1:8000? [y/N]: y ```
