Hi everyone! If you want to rename your threads, you can do it manually by editing the local index file. Here is how:

  1. Close VS Code.

  2. Go to this folder path on your computer:
    C:\Users\<Your-Username>\.codex\
    (Replace C with your drive partition and <Your-Username> with your Windows profile name).

  3. Look for the file named session_index.jsonl.

  4. Open it using a text editor like Notepad++ or VS Code.

  5. Find the thread you want to rename, change its text value, and save the file.

When you reopen VS Code, your chat threads will show the new names!
