Feature: Keep input bar visible/pinned while scrolling through conversation history

Feature Request

When scrolling up through conversation history in the terminal, the input bar disappears from view because it's at the bottom of the terminal buffer. There is no built-in option to keep the input bar pinned/visible while reviewing previous messages.

Expected Behavior

An option (e.g. in settings or as a default behavior) to keep the input bar always visible at the bottom while scrolling through conversation history — similar to how chat apps like Slack or iMessage keep the input field fixed regardless of scroll position.

Current Workaround

  • Press Cmd+End / Esc to jump back to the bottom
  • Use terminal split panes (e.g. Ghostty Cmd+D) to separate scroll area from input

Environment

  • macOS
  • Terminal: Ghostty
