  "textContent": "I’d like to share a possible usability improvement regarding chat management, and I’d really appreciate the opinion of people who are more knowledgeable about this than I am.\n\n**Problem:** Over time, the left sidebar accumulates a large number of chats. Currently, deleting chats requires selecting them one by one, which is inefficient.\n\n**Impact:** This leads to unnecessary clutter and reduces usability. While I could try to organize chats better, creating multiple separate chats is often the fastest and most practical workflow in daily use (especially in a professional context). The current limitation makes it harder to maintain a clean and usable workspace.\n\n**Suggestion:** Add the ability to select multiple chats from the sidebar and perform bulk actions such as **delete** or **archive.** Another enhancement would be a “select all” option or a dedicated multi-select mode to further improve usability.\n\nI believe this would significantly improve efficiency for frequent users.\nWould this be useful for others who manage a high volume of chats?",
