[Feature Request] Show timestamps for each message
Resolved 💬 2 comments Opened May 28, 2026 by attun-greria Closed May 31, 2026
Summary
It would be very helpful if each message in the conversation showed a small timestamp.
Motivation
When reviewing a Claude Code conversation later, I often want to know when each message happened — especially when:
- Background tasks were running and I came back later
- Long conversations span multiple sessions or days
- I want to recall how long a task actually took
Currently there is no way to know the date/time of a specific message from the UI; the conversation history shows messages in order but with no time context.
Suggested behavior
- Display a small timestamp next to (or above) each message
- Could be subtle (e.g. light gray, small font) so it doesn't add noise
- Hover-to-reveal tooltip would also be acceptable
