Quorum Terminal records the prompts you submit to your AI sessions so you can find, reuse, and clean them up later. The prompt history lives in a panel in the right dock and stays on your machine — like the rest of the app, your prompts are never sent anywhere.
What gets captured
Each prompt you submit is saved as a row with its timestamp — the time shows on the row and the full date and time appear on hover — alongside the terminal it came from and the AI tool that ran it (Claude or Codex). Rows are grouped under date headings (Today, Yesterday, then by date), newest first.
If you pasted an image into a prompt, it appears inline as a chip. The image reference is kept so you can see it was attached; a small thumbnail and preview are shown only when Quorum Terminal still has the image in its temporary cache.
Background prompts that agents emit on their own (subagent dispatches) are hidden by default to keep the list readable. A per-day chip reveals them, and you can change the default in Settings.
Opening the panel
Toggle the history panel with ⌘ ⇧ H. It opens in the right dock next to your terminals; the same shortcut closes it.
The panel reads from a prompt history file on disk. To open that file directly in your default editor, press ⌘ H.
Searching and filtering
The panel has two scope tabs:
| Scope | Shows |
|---|---|
| Current | Prompts from the active terminal's session |
| Project | Every prompt submitted in the open project |
A search box filters the visible rows by prompt text, terminal label, and working directory. Three filter chips narrow further — Claude, Codex, and With image — and two view toggles let you switch to a Gallery of pasted images or Group by session instead of by date.
Saving and reusing prompts
Every non-legacy row carries action buttons. The star (☆) saves that prompt to your library; once saved the star fills (★), and clicking it again removes it. Saved prompts move into the Saved Prompts panel, where they get a unique title and are skipped if identical content already exists — see Saved prompts for the full library.
You can also drag a row straight into a terminal to paste its text, copy a prompt to the clipboard, or delete a single entry. A retention line shows how long history is kept, with buttons to clear the current project or all history.
