Problem or use case

There is no queue or steer message feature on the app. Also for to-do list feature, we could an icon that pops up a little window where users can write down things to do for that project and follows along with them through out any chat made in that folder.

Proposed solution

Add Steer/Queue messages.

Adding a to-do list icon that pops out a small windowed to do list .

Why this matters

Adding a steer/queue message, especially queue, will allow users to think ahead and pre-prompt things that need to happen if they need to step away.

Adding a To-Do List feature can help people remember what they need to build, if they are new users sometimes they ask for advice for the build process (steps) from the agent and it gives them an order and sometimes they could forget what they need to do since it could be a while till they get to the next step! This could also be useful as a reminder section for developers!

Smallest useful scope

Adding Steer/Queue messages & to do list feature.

Today the prompt stash was added, which is nice, but the steering/queueing seems much more useful/needed, at least to me.

I'd also really like this feature, one of the main things I miss from the Codex app

I filed #5534, which covers the to-do list half of this request from a different angle: instead of a separate notes panel, it models an unsent draft as a real thread that hasn't taken its first turn yet, so drafts show up as rows in Sidebar V2 with a Draft status and you can have several per project.

The tradeoff versus what's proposed here: every entry is a runnable prompt with its own provider, model, and environment already selected, rather than a free-text note you retype into the composer — but it's also only prompts, so it doesn't cover general reminders or notes that aren't tasks.

It explicitly does not cover the queue/steer half of this issue, which #5507 and #231 track and which sounds like the part several people here actually want more.
