# Pin, park, close, delete
| Key  | Does                                                                                        | Keeps                               |
|------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------|
| `m`  | Pin or unpin (mark, as in vim): pinned sessions stay at the top, and `'1`–`'9` jump to them | Everything                          |
| `zz` | Park: move the session out of the way, to **Parked**                                        | Everything; the agent keeps running |
| `x`  | Close: the agent and panes stop, the session goes to History                                | The worktree and branch             |
| `dd` | Delete: close, and remove its worktrees and their local branches                            | Worktrees with unsaved work         |

Pinned sessions are never removed by [cleanup](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/worktrees/cleanup).

## Closing and deleting ask first

Both ask before doing anything, and say exactly what will happen. `y` or `↩` goes ahead; `n`, `⎋` or `q` cancels.
![Closing a working session: its agent will stop, the worktree stays](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/images/shots/sessions/close-confirm.png)
![Deleting a session: its two worktrees and their local branches will be removed](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/images/shots/sessions/delete-confirm.png)
Deleting never removes a worktree with uncommitted changes or unpushed commits: the dialog lists those under **Kept**,
with the reason.
Closed and deleted sessions stay in [History](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/history), where `R` reopens them (recreating the worktree
from its branch if it was removed).
