Description
Product change
- Source: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/336464
- Merged: 2026-09-16T20:21:13Z
Sessions and nested chats can be renamed inline from the Sessions list by using the context menu, double-clicking the title row, or pressing F2. Enter confirms the new title and Escape cancels it.
Why the docs need an update
docs/agents/run/sessions/manage-sessions.md only mentions renaming a chat from its tab context menu and does not cover renaming sessions or inline editing in the Sessions list.
Suggested documentation
docs/agents/run/sessions/manage-sessions.md: Add the session and nested-chat rename workflows and keyboard behavior.
Acceptance criteria
- Session and chat renaming from the Sessions list is documented.
- Double-click,
F2, Enter, and Escape behavior is accurate.
