Research direction

Start by locating the meterpreter shell-channel entry point and understanding how session logs are currently handled. Done would mean defining and implementing a decided way to capture shell channel contents, with storage under a session-specific path such as log/sessions/timestamp_ip/.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement library

Would be nice to log the contents of shell, at least, from meterpreter. This is just a channel.

Maybe store it in a subfolder of in log/sessions/timestamp_ip/ etc?
