What issue are you seeing?

Right now, it’s hard to find old chat history within a workspace. I’m using multiple workspaces and chats, and it gets confusing when trying to locate older conversations. It would be really helpful to have an option that lists chats by the current project folder.

If you use codex resume or the /resume command within the CLI, it filters threads based on the current working directory (cwd). I presume that's what you mean by "workspace" and "project folder".
