Programmatic Access

import { useSessions } from '@/hooks/use-sessions'

function MyComponent() {
  const { sessions, revokeSession, suspiciousActivityScore } = useSessions()

  if (suspiciousActivityScore > 80) {
    return <Alert>High-risk activity detected!</Alert>
  }

  return (
    <div>
      {sessions.map((session) => (
        <SessionCard
          key={session.id}
          session={session}
          onRevoke={() => revokeSession(session.id)}
        />
