Archiving a session is one click, but reopening one is hard to discover.
- The archived-session filter is an unlabeled sliders icon on the "Recents" header in the sidebar.
- Searching "sessions" or "archive" in Settings returns nothing relevant.
- The docs describe filter controls "at the top of the sidebar", which doesn't match the current layout.
A user who archives the wrong chat has no obvious recovery path (this happened to me today — it took a support session to find the filter icon).
Suggestions:
- Label the filter, or add an explicit "Archived" section to the sidebar.
- Make Settings search surface the archived-sessions filter.
- Show an "Undo" toast after archiving.
Environment: Claude Code desktop app on Windows 11.
