Descripción
When I send a message and immediately want to change it, there's no good way to do that.
If I hit stop right after sending, the app only lets me copy my text - I can't edit it in place. The edit flow seems like it's supposed to work, but it doesn't. So my only option is to retype the whole thing as a new message, which means the original bad prompt is still sitting in the context window eating tokens. Every false start or typo degrades the conversation.
Starting a new session over one bad message feels like overkill. I just want to fix what I said and move on.
What I've tried
- Editing the message inline: Doesn't work after hitting stop. I can copy but not edit.
- Sending a corrected follow-up: Works, but now I have two messages where I wanted one, and the context window carries both.
- Starting a new session: Solves the context pollution but throws away everything else in the conversation.
A few directions that would all solve this, not necessarily mutually exclusive:
- Fix the edit flow. If I stop a response and click to edit my message, let me actually edit it. And when I resubmit, replace the old tokens in context rather than appending - otherwise editing is just cosmetic.
- Add /undo or /rewind. One command that removes my last message and the assistant's response from the conversation and from the context window. Put my original text back in the composer so I can fix and resend.

Línea de trabajo
No se nombran archivos, pruebas ni puntos de entrada. Empieza reproduciendo el flujo de detener y editar en la aplicación de escritorio; después, sigue cómo se representan los mensajes editados o revertidos en la conversación y en la ventana de contexto. Se considera terminado cuando un mensaje detenido se puede editar o rebobinar, el mensaje y la respuesta anteriores se eliminan del contexto y el texto original está disponible en el composer.
