Allow renaming conversation titles in Past Conversations

Preflight Checklist

• [x] I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
• [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

Currently, there is no way to rename or customize conversation titles in the "Past Conversations" section of Claude Code. Users are limited to auto-generated titles, which makes it difficult to organize and quickly identify specific conversations when working on multiple projects or tasks.

Proposed Solution

Add a rename/edit functionality for conversation titles in the "Past Conversations" list. This could be implemented through:

• A right-click context menu with a "Rename" option
• An edit icon that appears on hover next to each conversation title
• Double-click on the conversation title to enter edit mode

The workflow would be:

• User triggers the rename action
• Conversation title becomes editable (inline text field)
• User types the new custom name
• User presses Enter or clicks outside to save
• The new title is persisted and displayed in the list

Alternative Solutions

1. Auto-tagging system: Automatically extract keywords from conversations and allow users to filter by tags
2. Folder/category organization: Allow users to organize conversations into custom folders or categories
3. Search-only approach: Enhance the search functionality to find conversations by content instead of relying on titles
4. Prefix/suffix customization: Allow users to add custom prefixes or suffixes to auto-generated titles

Priority

Medium - Would be very helpful

Configuration and settings

Use Case Example

I'm currently working with legal resolution documents (e.g., "resolucion 1843 de 2025", "resolucion 1888 de 2025"). Being able to rename my conversations to match the document names would allow me to:

• Quickly identify which conversation relates to which resolution
• Maintain better organization across multiple document reviews
• Resume work on specific resolutions without having to open and check multiple conversations
• Keep a clear historical record of work done on each document

Additional Context

This feature would be particularly valuable for:

• Users managing multiple client projects
• Developers working on different features simultaneously
• Teams using Claude Code for code reviews with specific PR numbers or ticket IDs
• Anyone who needs to reference previous conversations regularly

Similar features exist in other AI chat interfaces and have proven to be essential for productivity and organization.
