πŸ’‘ Key Insights

🟑

Flow varies by category (revision=63.7 vs writing=77.0)

Gap of 13 points. Mixed sessions score lower because tasks from different domains share fewer title words.

🟑

30.2% of sessions hit the flow floor (≀55)

71 sessions. Dominated by: building (30)

πŸ”΅

U-shaped flow trajectory

Flow dipped mid-career then recovered. Likely cause: early sessions explored broadly (low flow), then built focused pipelines (high flow).

πŸ”΅

V2 flow metric shifts scores by -10.7 on average

V1 mean: 72.8, V2 mean: 62.1. Correlation: r=0.49. V2 adds category coherence and learning overlap.

πŸ”» Floor Sessions (≀55)

71 sessions (30.2%) hit the flow floor.

Average task count: 3.8 Β· Average satisfaction: 8.3/10

Despite low flow, these sessions had high satisfaction β€” proving that flow and quality are independent.
