Visual Distiction for session "age" when filtering them in "group by project" view? E.g. I have several repos and sessions, sometimes I click on one that finished, but then click away as I checked on something else or did a quick chat, then when done I "can't find" the session that had finished recently. I don't like to toggle the view into "list" because that loses the repo context of the sessions. Basically, I want to see repo and age visually on the left simultanously. Maybe an option to sort the repos by most-recent session? Or have recently-completed sessions "bold" with the older ones are muted gradually based on age? Maybe a little "clock" icon with a short age string in each session to see which are recently-completed turns versus several days ago? Many options here just flagging some ideas.

Research direction

Start at the /chat entry point and inspect the group by project view while comparing it with the list view. The issue proposes several possible age indicators but does not select one; confirm the intended behavior and define completion as showing repository context alongside a clear visual indication of session age.
