What feature would you like to see?
In order to be able to jump between tickets on the board and a long list of threads, it would be great if we could use a skill or AGENTS.md instructions to define our own thread naming conventions (like ticket prefixes). It would need to allow for dynamic renaming, since sometimes the ticket is created by codex itself after some experimental planning or even implementation phase (so the thread name would have to be updated along the way)

This feature request hasn't received enough upvotes, so I'm closing it.
I would even be happy with /rename for now, but a right-click menu would be good, too.
Hey Eric @etraut-openai , is it possible this was closed by an action rather than your intent? Surely you can see the value in renaming chats? I would even be happy with /rename for now, but a right-click menu would be good, too.
