A Journey carries the goal and context around related thinking in Socra Journeys. Each Socra inside it focuses on one problem, decision, draft, or idea. New Socras can use relevant Context from their parent Journey.

When you mark a Socra Resolved after you or a teammate has added to its conversation, Journeys can update the Socra and the Context of its parent Journeys and Space wherever AI Context Updates is on.

## What a Journey keeps

Journey Context can include the larger goal, its constraints, relevant background, prior decisions, and the evidence behind them.

Resolved work can add facts, decisions, reasons, corrections, and open risks established in text. The Socra timeline shows a Memory updated event when Context changes. You can inspect the source and changes, then edit the affected Context if needed.

The conversation remains with the Socra that produced it. Later Socras can use the relevant Journey Context without asking you to reconstruct the same background.

## How related work stays connected

A Journey can contain Socras and smaller sub-Journeys. Context flows into the work inside it. Resolved work can then improve the Journey Context that later Socras receive.

Use a Journey when several decisions, questions, or drafts contribute to the same larger pursuit. That could be a book, thesis, client engagement, product direction, or another body of work where each part should use what the earlier parts established.

## Creating a Journey

You can create a Journey directly in [Socra Journeys](https://journeys.socra.com/) and add Socras or sub-Journeys to it. You can also ask the agent to create one.

Once the subject of a Socra is clear, the agent may suggest an existing Journey or a new one when shared Context would help future work. It does not create or move anything until you approve it.
