The sessions header's project/list toggle was one binary choice standing in
for a view. It becomes a menu: group by date, project or status; order by
updated, created, status, tokens or cost; show tokens, cost, PR, profile or
an always-visible timestamp per row; filter by status, pull request, project
or archived. Everything persists, and one reset puts it all back.
The pieces that make it read right:
- Status groups reuse the date dividers rather than inventing a second
separator, and a magnitude sort (tokens, cost) drops the calendar
entirely — "Today" above the priciest session you have ever had is a lie.
- Row metadata shares the trailing slot the kebab covers on hover, so only
the last fact steps aside and the number you switched on stays readable.
- A filter deepens the loaded page to 300 rows and hands the window back
when cleared, so "merged PRs" doesn't quietly answer for the last 50.
- Archived is a view of its own set, and dragging is still what picks a
manual order — the menu only offers a way back out of one.
Group the flat recents list and entered-project lanes by recency: an
unlabelled head of the newest run of sessions (cut at a real break in
activity, sized toward the most recent handful), then one divider per
coarse calendar range — Earlier today / Yesterday / Earlier this week /
Last week / Earlier this month / month / month + year. Empty ranges are
skipped, the first rendered group is never labelled, branch clusters
never split, and hand-ordered lists / pinned / project previews stay
divider-free.
