Park half‑written prompts, passing ideas and the prompts you reuse, right inside Claude Code and Codex

Description and use

Prompt‑shelf lets users park drafts, store ideas, and reuse prompts in Claude Code and Codex via Ctrl+F and Ctrl+Q, preserving state across sessions.

Problem

While using Claude Code or Codex, users cannot easily pause a draft, store spontaneous ideas, or quickly reuse common prompts without losing context or switching windows.

Outcome

Prompt‑shelf streamlines prompt management in Claude Code and Codex, enabling users to park drafts, capture ideas, and reuse prompts without losing context or switching windows, and it persists data across sessions.

Workflow

• Run "claude" or "codex" as usual.
• Press Ctrl+F + Enter to park the current draft; the input box clears.
• Press Ctrl+Q to open the list view; select a parked draft and press Enter to restore it.
• Type a spontaneous idea, press Ctrl+F, choose a list (e.g., "Ideas"), and press Enter to save it.
• Press Ctrl+Q, pick a reusable prompt from a list (e.g., "Common"), and press Enter to insert it into the input box.
• Use r to rename or D to delete lists from the Ctrl+Q view.
• Close and reopen a session; parked drafts persist per repo, lists persist across repos.

Evidence

I use Claude Code most of the day (Codex CLI too), and three small things kept getting in my way.

Ctrl+F, Enter: the draft is parked and the box is clear. Later, Ctrl+Q opens a list right above the input box.

Put it on a list like "Common". When you need it: Ctrl+Q, pick it, Enter.
