[FEATURE]: Add timestamp next to messages in chat (both agent and user messages) #8634
I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.
Describe the enhancement you want to request
We already know how long an agent took and we can see in the sessions when a chat was created.
Would be nice to see a timestamp, little darker then the delegate text, on the bottom right of each message.
This would add more information about the chat, this metadata could be stored outside messages to save context?

I would love to see this feature as well. During a long session (overnight), it can be hard to tell if the agent has stalled out or been making progress (especially when waiting for long builds to complete).

This feature would also add visibility into how long ago tool call or sub-agent task was initiated. OpenCode isn't as stable as I would like and it often fails to detect that a connection was lost for sub-sessions. Having timestamps on agent messages and tool calls would add some reference for these issues.

Also when you using parallel sessions through web or desktop it would be helpfult to understand what chats are stale, and what chats are not.
