Track how long each assistant response took to generate and display
it subtly next to the timestamp (e.g. '· 12.3s'). The timing is
measured from the first streaming delta to the final state, and
preserved across the history reload that follows stream completion.
Only visible for messages generated during the current session.
- User messages appear instantly with 'sending' state (dimmed, clock icon)
- Transitions to 'sent' (checkmark) when server acknowledges
- Shows error state (alert icon, retry visible) if send fails
- Applied to both primary and secondary sessions
Fetch agent identity via agent.identity.get WS method after connect.
Display avatar in message bubbles (replacing Bot icon) and in the
header (replacing the PinchChat logo when an avatar is configured).
Falls back to default icons when no avatar is set.
Small info button appears on hover of each message bubble.
Click to expand a panel showing raw message metadata (id, role,
timestamp, channel, sender info, etc.) from the gateway.
Useful for debugging and understanding message routing.
Collapsed by default, doesn't clutter the UI.
Closes feedback item #39
- Show relative time (2m, 3h, 1d) next to each session name
- Display last message preview below session name (truncated to 80 chars)
- Sort sessions by most recently updated (within pinned/unpinned groups)
- Map updatedAt and lastMessagePreview from gateway sessions.list response
System events (heartbeats, cron triggers, webhooks, channel events)
now render as subtle inline notifications instead of full user bubbles.
Detection based on content patterns ([EVENT], [cron:], [HEARTBEAT], etc.).
Shows the model (e.g. claude-opus-4-6) as a subtle chip next to the
session label in the header. Hovering reveals agent ID if available.
Model and agentId are now extracted from sessions.list response.
Show Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, Signal, Slack brand icons,
clock icon for cron sessions, bot icon for sub-agents, and
globe icon for webchat sessions. Falls back to message bubble
for unknown channels.
