Suggested focus — ranked, with reasons
Built from three signals: threads left open in the record, what the last session changed, and what the client has been writing in their journal. These are suggestions, not instructions — you decide in the room.
Things that are easy to lose track of across a caseload: dropped threads, parts that need attention, and open questions the record won't answer by itself. Severity means how soon to look, not how alarmed to be. Every flag links to its source sessions — the judgment call on each one is yours, not the system's.
Private by default — a note stays in your records unless you choose to push it, and pushed notes appear in the client's app under your name. The Sage also pulls your own in-session instructions out of the recordings, so what you asked for at the end of one session is still on record at the start of the next.
On record
Found — noticed, not really worked with yet, with protective parts active around it. In Process — being worked with: heard and understood from a calm place, not finished. Unburdened — the part has let go of what it was carrying. Follow-up — unburdened, but with work still ongoing, rather than a new, easier role.
Parts have roles. A manager works ahead of time to keep old pain from being touched. A firefighter reacts fast when pain breaks through anyway. Managers and firefighters are both protectors — same aim, different timing. An exile carries the pain they protect.
Stated goals — the client's own words, tracked

Techniques from this practice, written up as repeatable protocols instead of left as session memories — each linked to the session where it first appeared. One library per practitioner: your own methods, documented, usable across your whole caseload.
