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
Currently, the --resume picker displays raw first messages like:
> Implement the following plan: ...
> ここでやっているデザインの改善を...
These are often long, truncated, and lack context, so it's hard to tell sessions apart at a glance.
Proposed Solution
Show a short auto-generated session title or summary alongside each session entry. For example:
- [Slide design update] — 2h ago, 34 turns
- [ATS data analysis for XXX] — 1d ago, 12 turns
- [SSH agent troubleshooting] — 3d ago, 8 turns
The title could be generated by summarizing the first few exchanges (similar to how ChatGPT auto-titles conversations).
Alternative Solutions
- Manually crafting the first prompt to serve as a title — works but is a workaround
- claude --continue to resume the latest session — doesn't help when switching between multiple sessions
Priority
High - Significant impact on productivity
