💡 Prompt History Ideas

Option 1: Arrow Key Navigation (Recommended)

Like terminal/shell history - press ↑/↓ in input field to cycle through previous prompts.

  • Storage: Array in localStorage (last 50 prompts)
  • UX: ↑ = older, ↓ = newer, Escape = clear
  • Effort: Low - just keyboard listener + localStorage
  • Mobile: Won't work without keyboard, need alternative

Option 2: History Dropdown/Popover

Click a 🕐 button next to input to show recent prompts in a dropdown.

  • Storage: Same localStorage array
  • UX: Click button → dropdown → click prompt to fill
  • Effort: Medium - needs dropdown component + positioning
  • Mobile: Works great - touch-friendly

Option 3: Autocomplete/Suggestions

As you type, show matching previous prompts below input.

  • Storage: Same localStorage array
  • UX: Type → see matches → click or arrow+enter
  • Effort: High - needs debounced search + positioning
  • Mobile: Works but takes screen space

Option 4: Swipe Gestures (Mobile Only)

Swipe up on input area to reveal history drawer.

  • UX: Mobile-native feeling
  • Effort: Medium - touch event handling
  • Desktop: Doesn't translate

My Recommendation: 1 + 2 Combined

Implement both arrow key navigation AND a history button:

  • Desktop users get the familiar shell-style ↑/↓ navigation
  • Mobile users get a tappable 🕐 button
  • Same localStorage backend for both
  • Store: { prompts: string[], index: number }

Implementation Sketch

// Storage
const PROMPT_HISTORY_KEY = 'konui_prompt_history';
const MAX_PROMPTS = 50;

// On submit: prepend to array, dedupe, trim
// On ↑: decrement index, fill input
// On ↓: increment index, fill input  
// On 🕐 click: show dropdown with prompts

What's Next?

Which approach do you prefer? Or should I implement the combined Option 1+2?
