# History

> Find, filter, open, rename, and clean up previous Tasks.

History is the place to find Tasks you have worked on before. It is a Task-level view, not a chat transcript view.

Open History when you want to return to earlier work, find a shared Task, or clean up Tasks you no longer need.

## What History Shows

Each History row represents a Task. Rows can show:

* Task title
* last updated time
* linked repositories
* linked workspace folders
* whether the Task is yours or shared with you

Opening a row opens that Task.

## Search, Filter, And Sort

History has search and filters for narrowing long lists of Tasks.

| Control          | What it changes                                           |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Search**       | Finds Tasks by title and linked repository.               |
| **Ownership**    | Filters between your Tasks and shared Tasks.              |
| **Repositories** | Filters by linked repo.                                   |
| **Workspaces**   | Filters by linked workspace folder.                       |
| **Sort**         | Orders Tasks by most recent, oldest, title, or relevance. |

When search text is active, relevance can be used as the sort order.

## Managing History

History supports management actions for Tasks you can edit.

| Action      | What it does                                           |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Open**    | Opens the selected Task.                               |
| **Rename**  | Changes the Task title.                                |
| **Select**  | Enters selection mode for bulk actions.                |
| **Delete**  | Deletes selected Tasks when your permission allows it. |
| **Refresh** | Reloads the History list.                              |

Viewer-only shared Tasks may not allow rename or delete actions.

## What History Is Not

History is not the same as the **Chats** panel.

* Use **History** to find and open Tasks.
* Use [Chats](/panels/chats) to continue a conversation or terminal-agent session inside an open Task.
* Use [Artifacts](/panels/artifacts) to find specs, tickets, stories, and reviews inside a Task.

History helps you get back to the right Task. The Task's panels hold the actual work surfaces and documents.
