Description

Session history files can grow quite large over time. We need a way for users to clear old session history to manage disk usage.

Current State

  • Session history is stored in files and grows unbounded
  • No UI to clear old sessions
  • Files can consume significant disk space over time

Proposed Changes

  1. Add a "Clear Session History" button in Settings or Session History Panel
  2. Implement backend command to delete session history files
  3. Add confirmation dialog before clearing
  4. Consider options:
    • Clear all sessions
    • Clear sessions older than X days
    • Keep only last N sessions

Benefits

  • Gives users control over disk usage
  • Prevents unbounded growth of session files
  • Improves performance for users with many sessions

Priority

Medium - Quality of life improvement for long-term users
