Improve conversation management, workflow navigation, and Windows taskbar notification #232

Background

I hope to improve the management flexibility of historical conversations and the interaction experience during the workflow in Zoo.

Feature suggestions

1. Selectable storage location for conversation history

  • Current: Conversations are likely stored in a fixed location.
  • Suggestion: Allow users to choose between:
    • Saving under the current VSCode workspace directory (better for project isolation)
    • Saving in a unified global directory (better for cross-project reuse)

2. Navigation points within a conversation

  • Scenario: In long conversations, users often want to quickly jump back to a specific question they previously asked Zoo.
  • Suggestion: Add a "navigation point" feature — clicking it returns to a previous user message (question) sent to Zoo.

3. Folder-based classification and custom naming for conversations

  • Scenario: Users may create multiple conversation groups for different projects or topics.
  • Suggestion:
    • Support organizing historical conversations into custom folders
    • Allow custom naming for each conversation folder
    • Make it easy to manage conversations by project or topic

4. Taskbar flashing notification (Windows)

  • Scenario: When Zoo needs user input or asks a question / confirmation, the user may not be focused on VSCode.
  • Suggestion: Use VSCode's native capability to flash the VSCode icon on the Windows taskbar to attract the user's attention.

Additional note

  • Feature 4 can refer to the taskbar flashing behavior of terminals or chat applications.
  • Thanks for considering these improvements 🙏
