Feature Request
Description:
Display a timestamp when the user submits a prompt, showing when each message was sent.
Use Cases:
- Track how long you've been in a session
- Context when reading back through a conversation history
- Know when a session started vs resumed
- Helpful for wrap-up/progress notes ("what time did I start this?")
Suggested Implementation:
- Could be displayed in the gutter next to the prompt
- Or in a subtle response header
- Format: HH:MM (24hr) or configurable
Why it matters:
Currently there's no visual indication of time passing during a session. When you step away and come back, or when reviewing a long conversation, timestamps would provide useful context.
