Problem Statement

When running multiple Claude Code agents in separate terminals, it's easy to lose track of which agent is working on what task.

Proposed Solution

Keep a brief summary of the initial prompt/task visible in the interface at all times (e.g., in a header bar or status line). This would allow users to quickly identify what each agent is doing when switching between terminal windows.

Alternative Solutions

Priority

Medium - Would be very helpful

Feature Category

CLI commands and flags

Use Case Example

  • Running several agents in parallel on different tasks
  • Returning to a terminal after some time away
  • Quickly scanning multiple terminal windows to find a specific task

This would be a small UI addition but a significant quality-of-life improvement for users who work with multiple concurrent agents.
