Title: Keyboard navigation between prompts in long conversations
In long conversations, it becomes increasingly difficult to jump back to a specific part of the discussion. Since every prompt marks the beginning of a new exchange, it would be extremely useful to navigate directly between prompts using the keyboard.
Suggested behavior:
- Page Up / Page Down (PgUp / PgDn, not the cursor arrow keys) jump to the previous or next prompt in the current conversation.
- The view scrolls so that the selected prompt becomes visible, making it easy to navigate through long chats as if the prompts were an index.
One implementation detail to consider is that the desktop app currently does not use Page Up / Page Down or Home / End for document navigation, while applications such as Claude already assign navigation behavior to these keys. If preserving those functions is desirable, an alternative shortcut such as ⌘ + Page Up / ⌘ + Page Down (or another suitable combination) could be used instead.
This would greatly improve productivity when working in long technical or research conversations, where the goal is often to revisit a previous section rather than to resend an old prompt.
Currently, the only way to reach an earlier part of a long conversation is to scroll manually, which becomes slow and cumbersome as chats grow.
Although this proposal focuses on keyboard navigation in the desktop app, providing an equivalent way to move between prompts on touch devices would offer the same usability benefits.
