Good clarification - yeah, "resume" is closer to what I meant. Less about rewinding and more about picking up context mid-task without losing your mental thread.

The named sidebar sounds useful for switching. My main need is the conversation history staying searchable and tied to that named scope, so when I return days later I can reconstruct what the agent was doing and why. Does ccmux persist that context across sessions?

Mind if I ask what line of software you work in?

The ccmux sessions are tied 1-to-1 with claude code sessions. If a the ccmux "workspace", ccmux's tmux session, gets killed or a user intentionally kills/deactivated a ccmux session, it can be reactivated easily. Under the hood it's just ccmux tracking claude code session IDs and attempting to resume said session when reenabling.

Your input has me thinking there could be a couple features to consider:

  - A search feature to search through all claude code sessions and resurrect one as a ccmux session. 
  - Right now ccmux sessions have two things to quickly indicate their specific task/intention: a configurable name and they clearly show the git branch name they have checked out. I originally opted for this very lightweight approach, but perhaps more context is required about the task at hand, especially for long-running multi-day sessions.

The search feature would be huge - that friction of "which session was working on X" is exactly where things break down.

On the context side, maybe a short freeform note field attached at session creation? Branch name gets you partway there but doesn't capture intent. Something like "refactoring auth layer - blocked on X" would make resurrection much faster after a few days away.

I work mostly in backend infra and developer tooling.
