Problem Statement
In the Claude desktop app's Code tab, pinned sessions always appear in the "Pinned" section at the top of the sidebar. The built-in section order (Pinned -> Routines -> Sessions) is fixed, so there is no way to keep a session permanently anchored at the bottom.
Some long-running reference sessions should always stay reachable, but I don't want them taking space at the top above my active work.
Proposed Solution
- Add a "Pin to bottom" action next to "Pin", giving a second pinned area below the Sessions section
- Sessions pinned to the bottom should, like top-pinned ones, be excluded from auto-archiving
Alternative Solutions
- Let users drag-reorder sidebar sections, including the built-in Pinned section, so it can be moved below Sessions
- Workaround today: a custom section/group, but filing a session there unpins it (losing auto-archive exclusion), and its position relative to Sessions cannot be controlled
Priority
Low - Nice to have
