openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Feature Request] Add team/project grouping in agent session list (UI hierarchical view) [1 participants]

Feature Request: Team/Project Grouping in Session List

Problem / Use Case

When managing multiple development teams (e.g., an Asset Management team, a Marketing team, an HR system team), each team consists of 5 agents (PM, Director, Frontend, Backend, QA). Currently all agents appear as flat, independent nodes in the session list:

session list
├── main
├── reviewer
├── pm
├── director
├── frontend
├── backend
└── qa

For teams with distinct responsibilities, it would be much clearer to have a hierarchical view:

Asset Management Platform (team/group)
├── Product Manager
├── Development Director
├── Frontend Developer
├── Backend Developer
└── QA Engineer

Marketing System (team/group)
├── Product Manager
├── Development Director
├── Frontend Developer
├── Backend Developer
└── QA Engineer

Desired Behavior

1. A team/group acts as a parent node in the session list
2. Child agents are nested under the team parent
3. Each team has its own isolated agents and sessions
4. Teams can be created/managed independently

Example Use Case

A company has multiple development teams:

• Asset Management Platform team (zichan-pm, zichan-director, zichan-frontend, zichan-backend, zichan-qa)
• Marketing System team (marketing-pm, marketing-director, marketing-frontend, marketing-backend, marketing-qa)
• HR System team (hr-pm, hr-director, hr-frontend, hr-backend, hr-qa)

Each team has its own PM who receives requirements via WeChat/other channels and coordinates internally.

Proposed Solutions (in order of preference)

1. Built-in team/group concept: Add native support for team/project entities that can contain multiple agents, with a parent node in the UI
2. Workspace-based grouping: Use workspace hierarchy to infer team structure in the UI
3. Configurable tags/metadata: Allow agents to have a team or group metadata field that controls UI grouping

Alternatives Considered

Using agent ID prefixes (e.g., zichan-pm, marketing-pm) provides visual clarity but does not create a real hierarchical structure in the session list. All agents remain flat and equal.
