Environment

  • Windows
  • Latest ChatGPT desktop app (post-GPT-5.6 rename)

Problem

The @ mention picker shows ChatGPT conversations, but the search field does not search them. It either searches only files/tasks or does not filter conversations at all.

For users with many conversations, manually scrolling is impractical.

Expected behavior

Typing in the search box should filter ChatGPT conversations by title, just like files/tasks.

Actual behavior

Only manual scrolling works for conversations.

Impact

This makes ChatGPT→Codex handoff difficult to use at scale.
