Context:
Within the AI chat window, as the conversation history grows longer over multiple turns, the message thread becomes extremely deep.

Problem:
Navigating through these long threads is currently inefficient. Manual scrolling is imprecise and time-consuming when trying to locate specific information, previous prompts, or particular code blocks within a massive context. The UI lacks a mechanism to "jump" quickly between relevant parts of the history.

Solution
I would like to suggest an in-page search and navigation feature similar to the browser's Ctrl+F functionality.

Search Bar: A dedicated search input to find specific strings within the current chat session.
Precision Navigation: Once a keyword is found, provide "Up" and "Down" arrow buttons (similar to the ^ and v icons in browsers) to allow users to jump instantly between all occurrences of the search term.
Highlighting: Automatically highlight the matched text in the UI.
Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context
As shown in the attached concept (referencing the search UI in the top right of the provided screenshot), having a quick navigation toggle would significantly improve productivity for power users dealing with long, complex multi-agent interactions.
