The TUI should support "session management," which includes:

  • Browsing/searching previous conversations
  • Resuming/forking a previous conversation
  • For bonus points, switching between multiple active conversations in the TUI

not sure if this needs to be part of this issue or can be different issue - but can we have checkpoint and restore those capabilities - e.g if codex make mistake e.g deleting old code or file for that matter - we can go back to working code (in case codex/user didn't committed those small changes)

This is now implemented via codex resume.
