Description

**Mood:** 😔
**Category:** Requests and ideas

Can you make the agent and the user more able to control session metadata? The metadata is almost always wrong IME.

like just now, I spun up a session to take over a PR from someone else, and it inferred nothing, and later I asked it to associate the session with the PR, and it just couldn't do that

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the reported /chat workflow in app version 1.0.9: create a session to take over a PR, then ask to associate it with that PR; done means the agent and user can reliably control session metadata.
