[FEATURE] Sync conversation history between CLI and Claude Code desktop app
### Preflight Checklist - [x] I have searched [existing requests](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20label%3Aenhancement) and this feature hasn't been requested yet - [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features) ### Problem Statement Currently, conversations I have in the Claude Code CLI (terminal) don't show up in the Claude Code desktop app, and vice versa. They're completely separate with no shared history. It would be great if both interfaces could access the same conversation history. I often start working on a project in the terminal and later want to continue or review that same conversation from the desktop app. Right now there's no way to do that. Even a read-only view of CLI sessions in the desktop app would be a huge improvement. Being able to resume them from either interface would be even better. ### Proposed Solution - Sync conversation history between the CLI and the desktop app so sessions are accessible from both interfaces - Allow resuming CLI sessions from the desktop app and vice versa - Show desktop notifications when Claude needs input or wants to ask a question ### Alternative Solutions _No response_ ### Priority Critical - Blocking my work ### Feature Category CLI commands and flags ### Use Case Example _No response_ ### Additional Context _No response_
