πŸ’‘ Key Insights

🟑

Flow varies by category (revision=65.0 vs writing=79.3)

Gap of 14 points. Mixed sessions score lower because tasks from different domains share fewer title words.

🟑

30.0% of sessions hit the flow floor (≀55)

64 sessions. Dominated by: mixed (29)

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 -10.6 on average

V1 mean: 72.8, V2 mean: 62.2. Correlation: r=0.48. V2 adds category coherence and learning overlap.

πŸ”» Floor Sessions (≀55)

64 sessions (30%) hit the flow floor.

Average task count: 3.8 Β· Average satisfaction: 8.7/10

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