the automatic title is the owner's first sentence truncated — "can you notifiy
me when https://newweb.fofos…", typo included. that is a prompt, not a name,
and it is what they scan a list of bots for later.
so after arming: two to four words, the subject and what is watched about it.
"newweb uptime", "NYT front page". explicitly NOT "Website Monitor Bot" — every
bot is a monitor and the word earns nothing in a list of them.
this also closes the hand-wave in the record step. it said "your session id is
the file name you were told to use — if you do not know it, look at which
transcript you are in", which is not an instruction anybody can follow. now it
lists /chat/sessions?context=bots and matches on the title, because claude
titles a session from its first message and on the arming turn that entry is
you.
which puts the three steps in a REQUIRED order, stated: find your id, write the
record, then rename. renaming first destroys the only thing that identifies you
in that list.
