Claude has no way to navigate long conversations — this is a real productivity killer
Try this: have a 40-exchange conversation with Claude. Now find something it told you 30 messages ago.
Your options are:
Scroll manually through the entire conversation
Ask Claude to find it again — works until the conversation gets too long and context degrades
Ctrl+F — doesn't work inside the chat pane
Start a new session and lose everything
None of these are acceptable for people who use Claude seriously for work.
Global search finds past conversations. It does nothing for navigation inside a single long session.
How are you all handling this? Is there a workaround I'm missing or is everyone just living with the friction?
