# Rewind
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The `/rewind` command allows you to go back to a previous state in your
|
|
||||||
conversation and, optionally, revert any file changes made by the AI during
|
|
||||||
those interactions. This is a powerful tool for undoing mistakes, exploring
|
|
||||||
different approaches, or simply cleaning up your session history.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Usage
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To use the rewind feature, simply type `/rewind` into the input prompt and press
|
|
||||||
**Enter**.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut: **Press `Esc` twice**.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Interface
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When you trigger a rewind, an interactive list of your previous interactions
|
|
||||||
appears.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Select Interaction:** Use the **Up/Down arrow keys** to navigate through
|
|
||||||
the list. The most recent interactions are at the bottom.
|
|
||||||
2. **Preview:** As you select an interaction, you'll see a preview of the user
|
|
||||||
prompt and, if applicable, the number of files changed during that step.
|
|
||||||
3. **Confirm Selection:** Press **Enter** on the interaction you want to rewind
|
|
||||||
back to.
|
|
||||||
4. **Action Selection:** After selecting an interaction, you'll be presented
|
|
||||||
with a confirmation dialog with up to three options:
|
|
||||||
- **Rewind conversation and revert code changes:** Reverts both the chat
|
|
||||||
history and the file modifications to the state before the selected
|
|
||||||
interaction.
|
|
||||||
- **Rewind conversation:** Only reverts the chat history. File changes are
|
|
||||||
kept.
|
|
||||||
- **Revert code changes:** Only reverts the file modifications. The chat
|
|
||||||
history is kept.
|
|
||||||
- **Do nothing (esc):** Cancels the rewind operation.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If no code changes were made since the selected point, the options related to
|
|
||||||
reverting code changes will be hidden.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Key Considerations
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Destructive Action:** Rewinding is a destructive action for your current
|
|
||||||
session history and potentially your files. Use it with care.
|
|
||||||
- **Agent Awareness:** When you rewind the conversation, the AI model loses all
|
|
||||||
memory of the interactions that were removed. If you only revert code changes,
|
|
||||||
you may need to inform the model that the files have changed.
|
|
||||||
- **Manual Edits:** Rewinding only affects file changes made by the AI's edit
|
|
||||||
tools. It does **not** undo manual edits you've made or changes triggered by
|
|
||||||
the shell tool (`!`).
|
|
||||||
- **Compression:** Rewind works across chat compression points by reconstructing
|
|
||||||
the history from stored session data.
