Feature Request

Problem

Currently, there's no way to archive all messages within a chat folder at once. This would be particularly useful when working with project-based chat folders, allowing users to archive all related conversations when a project is completed.

Proposed Solution

Add an "Archive All" option to chat folders that would:

  1. Archive all conversations within the selected folder
  2. Move the archived conversations to the archive section
  3. Keep the folder structure intact for future use

Use Case

  • Project-based chat organization
  • Temporary team collaborations
  • Event planning chats
  • Seasonal or time-limited discussions

Additional Context

This feature would help maintain a clean workspace while preserving important conversations in the archive. It would be particularly useful for users who organize their chats by projects, teams, or events.

Suggested Implementation

  • Add a new "Archive All" button in the chat folder options menu
  • Include a confirmation dialog to prevent accidental archiving
  • Optionally add a timestamp or archive label to indicate when the messages were archived
