Bug Description Show /color in the /resume session picker

When sessions are set with /color, that color isn't reflected in the /resume picker — every session row looks the same. It would be great if the picker rendered each session row using its assigned color (or showed a small color swatch next to the name).

Why it helps:

  • Makes it easy to visually distinguish sessions at a glance when resuming
  • Reinforces the mental model users already build by assigning colors to specific projects/tasks
  • Complements --name, which helps textually but not visually

Ideal behavior: session rows in /resume are tinted (or prefixed with a swatch) matching the /color that was active when the session was last used.

Environment Info

  • Platform: linux
  • Terminal: ghostty
  • Version: 2.1.118
  • Feedback ID: d5629394-e07c-4896-8a8d-e36f11af8932

extent analysis

TL;DR

Update the /resume session picker to display session rows with their assigned colors or add a color swatch next to each session name.

Guidance

  • Review the current implementation of the /resume session picker to identify where the session color information is being lost or not applied.
  • Investigate the possibility of modifying the session picker to accept and display color information, potentially through an additional parameter or data attribute.
  • Consider adding a feature request or enhancement to the project's issue tracker to formally propose and discuss the addition of color support in the /resume session picker.
  • Examine the existing use of /color in other parts of the application to understand how color information is currently being handled and displayed.

Notes

The provided information does not include specific technical details about the application's codebase or the /resume session picker's implementation, limiting the ability to provide a precise fix or code snippet.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by manually modifying the session picker's display to include color information, if possible, until a formal fix or enhancement can be implemented.
