dsh-navbar

Reviewing an earlier user message in a long conversation often means a lot of scrolling and searching. dsh-navbar solves this by adding a node navigation rail along the right edge of the conversation: each user message gets a node, the current reading position is highlighted with a blue capsule, hovering shows a preview of the message content (truncated to 6 lines), and clicking smoothly jumps to that point. The rail has no hover dead zones, and the scroll wheel can move between nodes, making navigation feel effortless.

Beyond basic node navigation, the plugin is designed for real long-conversation use: when there are more than 11 nodes, it automatically switches to a sliding window to avoid overflow; the "load earlier history" button at the top seamlessly loads older messages without losing your current reading position; and the message pin feature lets you keep important assistant replies fixed in the rail for one-click jumps, with a pin badge shown on the preview card.

It's for anyone who needs to return to specific points in a conversation frequently—whether reviewing, excerpting, tracking discussion threads, or repeatedly referencing a particular reply. It works out of the box with no commands or tools, and animations are automatically disabled under the prefers-reduced-motion setting.
