Originally created by @Jasperabez on GitHub (Dec 4, 2025).

Feature hasn't been suggested before.

  • I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

Implement something similar to reverse-i-search on bash.

Benefits:

  • instead of using arrow keys to find a previous prompt executed and resend that prompt, do a reverse search and load it into the prompt box. Saves time.

@jiahaoxiang2000 I checked the pr you created out of curiosity and found an issue with the onSelect logic you should should offset the cursor logic otherwise the ui will only show one line if you have a multline input
input.cursorOffset = input.plainText.length

It's not my place to say but with just showing truncated text i don't see how this will be very useful since its very confusing without seeing the full text content as to what was written in a previous prompt.

With the UI you went with I ran opus 4.5 to get some dummy ui for a version with full context and suggested a ui similar to fzf --preview but @rekram1-node could give better feedback here as to what they would want. Maybe just simple search style like bash where you search and it shows on the input instantly instead of opening history modal.

@ayushhh1010 commented on GitHub (Jan 15, 2026):

Hi! I'd like to work on this feature if it's still available.

My approach
I'll implement a bash-style reverse search:
1)Press Ctrl+R to open search overlay
2)Type to filter history in real-time
3)Ctrl+R cycles through matches, Enter selects, Esc cancels
4)Create a ReverseSearchOverlay component with match counter and preview

Also, Any preferred UI pattern for overlays in this project?
Should search be case-insensitive?
Where is prompt history stored currently?

I have React/TypeScript experience and will include demo screenshots in the PR. Let me know if this sounds good!
