[FEATURE] Reviewable Session History for Claude Code

Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Feb 4, 2026 by MostFrabjous Closed Feb 8, 2026

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

When Claude Code generates multiple files quickly (especially during multi-step operations), the Ctrl+O review prompts fly by too fast to catch. Once you press Esc or miss a prompt, there's no way to go back and review what was created. This is particularly problematic for:

  • Files created in /tmp (not git-tracked)
  • Multi-file refactoring operations
  • Complex workflows with intermediate artifacts

Proposed Solution

Add a navigable session history that allows users to:

  • Navigate backward through history after pressing Esc (already implemented)
  • Toggle file content expansion/collapse on demand (e.g. ctrl-o)

Alternative Solutions

Provide a command like claude-code --show-last-session that displays all files that were created/modified in the most recent run, with their full paths and option to view contents.

Why This Matters: Claude Code often creates temporary files or intermediate artifacts that aren't git-tracked. Without the ability to review these after the fact, it's easy to miss them or have to search for them (cumbersome).
