Feature Request: Live ChatGPT Conversation Capacity Indicator
Hello OpenAI Team,
I’d like to request a feature that lets ChatGPT users see how much capacity remains in their current conversation.
I frequently work on long, technical projects involving software development, PC hardware, virtual machines, and troubleshooting.
One of my biggest frustrations is not knowing when a conversation is approaching its context limit.
I’d love to see the following features:
- Live Capacity Indicator: Display the percentage of the conversation’s usable context currently occupied.
- Remaining Capacity: Show how much context is still available, preferably in tokens and percentages.
- Automatic Warnings: Notify users when the conversation is approaching its limit.
- Handoff Feature: Allow users to generate a complete project summary and transfer it into a new conversation.
- Optional Settings: Let users enable or disable the indicator and choose warning thresholds.
This would make ChatGPT significantly more useful for people working on complex, long-term projects.
It would also help prevent the loss of important technical information and reduce repeated troubleshooting.
Thank you for considering this feature!
