+# Thread name storage investigation
+
+## Goal
+
+Check whether `codex-tabs` can display the Codex thread name created with `/rename thread` without scanning every transcript on every render.
+
+## What was checked
+
+- `threads.title` in `~/.codex/state_5.sqlite`
+- the rest of the `threads` table columns
+- other local state tables in `~/.codex/state_5.sqlite`
+- `~/.codex/history.jsonl`
+- the per-session JSONL transcript under `~/.codex/sessions/`
+
+## Findings
+
+- The only obvious user-facing thread-name field in the local state DB is `threads.title`.
+- On this machine, `threads.title` still matches `first_user_message` even after using `/rename thread`.
+- Other local tables did not expose an alternative persisted thread-name field.
+- The session transcript JSONL contains structured events such as `session_meta`, `user_message`, `agent_message`, and tool calls, but no cheap standalone persisted field for the renamed thread name was identified.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+At the time of this investigation, Codex thread names created with `/rename thread` were not exposed in a cheap local field that `codex-tabs` could read directly.
+
+## Decision
+
+Do not add `thread name:` to the UI yet.
+
+Parsing transcripts to recover rename commands was considered too costly for the normal display path.
+
+## Related context
+
+- Codex upstream clearly has a thread-naming concept.
+- The missing piece is a reliable local field or documented storage location that `codex-tabs` can read cheaply.
