Feature: Keep input bar visible/pinned while scrolling through conversation history
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Mar 11, 2026 by RaviTharuma Closed Mar 15, 2026
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/Escto jump back to the bottom - Use terminal split panes (e.g. Ghostty
Cmd+D) to separate scroll area from input
Environment
- macOS
- Terminal: Ghostty
