Never Lose Your AI Conversation Again

Power outage? Crash? Gone for a week? Saga preserves everything—so you pick up exactly where you left off.

January 2025·5 min read

You're deep in a real project. Building something, debugging something, planning something. You've been going back and forth with GPT or Claude for hours. The AI finally gets it—your codebase, your constraints, your direction.

Then something normal happens:

  • Your laptop dies
  • The power goes out
  • The browser crashes
  • You step away for a few days
  • You hit the context limit

And just like that—you're back at zero.

"I'm building an app that..."
"My tech stack is..."
"We were working on..."

That's not a workflow. That's a trap.

How Saga Fixes This

Your code editor doesn't forget your files when the power blips. It autosaves, recovers, resumes.

Saga does the same thing—but for AI conversations.

TL;DR

Conversations are automatically saved, recoverable, and resilient by design. Crash mid-response? Open Saga and it's all still there.

1

Continuous Auto-Save

Every message is saved:

  • Before it's sent
  • After the response arrives

Saved locally, on your machine—not in a cloud you don't control.

Power goes out mid-response? Reopen Saga. The conversation is exactly where it was, including the half-received reply. No loss. No restart.

2

Running Summaries

Long conversations get muddy—for you and the AI. Saga generates running summaries as you work:

"Building Saga marketing website. Completed: Supabase auth, Stripe integration, Resend email setup. Currently working on: download section with OS auto-detection. Key decisions: webhooks for subscription sync, dropdown over auto-download for UX."

These help in two ways:

  • The AI stays oriented in long sessions
  • You remember where you left off after a break
3

Checkpoints

Think of checkpoints like git commits for conversations.

Saga creates them automatically:

  • When you finish a task ("that works!", "done", "perfect")
  • After inactivity
  • Before switching conversations
  • Before quitting the app

Each checkpoint captures:

Progress summary

What you've accomplished

Files in context

What you were working on

Key decisions

Why you chose what you chose

Pending tasks

What's left to do

You can also create manual checkpoints anytime—just say "checkpoint this" or click save.

What Recovery Looks Like

If Saga closes unexpectedly—crash, power outage, anything—recovery is automatic.

When you reopen:

  1. Detection — Saga knows if shutdown was clean
  2. Restore — Any in-flight operations are recovered
  3. Status — You see exactly what was recovered
  4. Resume — Continue or jump back to any checkpoint

You're not "starting over." You're continuing.

Time Travel for Conversations

Ever been 50 messages deep and thought:

"Wait... what if we had gone the other direction back when we decided X?"

With Saga you can:

  • Browse checkpoint history
  • Jump back to any point
  • Branch into a new conversation from there
  • Keep the original thread intact

It's like git branches for your thinking process.

Why This Matters

The real cost of losing context isn't just time. It's the stuff you can't fully recreate:

×The momentum
×The reasoning behind decisions
×The dead ends you already eliminated
×The flow state

Saga treats that shared context as something valuable—because it is.

Technical Notes (For the Curious)
  • SQLite in WAL mode — Write-ahead logging for durability
  • Local-first architecture — Cloud sync is optional
  • Append-only message log — Messages are never overwritten
  • Checkpoint compression — Summaries capture meaning, not just tokens

Coming Soon

Context preservation ships with Saga from day one. Next up:

  • Cloud sync — Optional encryption + sync to your storage
  • Team handoff — Export conversation state for someone else to continue
  • Conversation search — Full-text search across sessions + checkpoints

AI should amplify your thinking, not make you repeat yourself.
