   This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

   • [FEATURE]: duplicate slash command or fork command dialog should show Duplicate at the end of message list #12001: [FEATURE]: duplicate slash command or fork command dialog should show Duplicate at the end of message list

   These issues cover similar concerns about making forking more accessible and improving the fork dialog UX (showing current state, discoverability of fork actions). Feel free to ignore if your specific case differs.

   The option to fork a session is already included in the command_list (Fork from message), a slash command that can b autocompleted (/fork), and, as of the next release, as a command line switch for use when starting the Opencode (--continue --fork). I'm not sure how many more places we could place the fork option to make it more obvious.

   Worthy of Mention, the first two of these of forking "fork the current session". You cannot fork a session that you are not in (other than with the new --fork switch, since presumably if you are still at your command prompt you are in no session at all and so it would be incorrect to refer to a 'current session').

   To quickly fork the current session on your last message, you can bind the session_fork key command to a key of your choice: then, you may simply whack that key and immediately hit enter to fork the current session on the last message.

   Recommend closing as no action required.
