Features
Everything you wish ChatGPT had built in
Clean the sidebar, save what matters, scan long threads faster, and move to a fresh chat without losing the plot.
Message Bookmarks
Bookmark the exact prompt, answer, or decision you need to revisit. Jump back in one click instead of re-scrolling a massive thread.
Notes on Important Messages
Add a quick note to any message worth keeping. Great for follow-ups, reminders, research takeaways, or why a certain answer matters.
Thread Map
Scan a long conversation at a glance. See the major sections, spot the part you need, and jump there without dragging the scroll bar forever.
Context Compact
When a thread gets too long, generate a compact Markdown context file from the full conversation. Paste it into a new chat and keep going with less context loss.
Private by Default
Folders, bookmarks, notes, and handoffs stay on your machine. No extra account, no separate dashboard, no need to send your chat data elsewhere.
How it Works
From messy thread to working system in 60 seconds
Three ways GPT Desk helps ChatGPT users stay organized and avoid context loss.
Clean up the chats
Move important conversations into folders, star the threads you keep returning to, and turn the sidebar from a messy list into something you can navigate fast.
Context Compact
When a conversation gets too long, click Context so GPT Desk reads the whole thread and creates a compact Markdown handoff you can paste into a fresh chat.
Thread Map, Bookmarks and Notes
Scan long chats with Thread Map, jump back to saved answers with bookmarks, and leave notes on important messages so the next time you open the thread, the context is still obvious.

FAQ
FAQs
Everything you need to know about organizing messy ChatGPT threads and reducing context loss.
Does GPT Desk work inside normal ChatGPT?
Yes. It runs directly inside the ChatGPT interface, so you keep using the product you already know while getting a cleaner sidebar and better navigation.
How does Context Compact help with lost context?
When a thread gets too long, GPT Desk creates a compact Markdown handoff from the conversation so you can start a fresh chat with the important context carried forward.
What is Thread Map actually for?
Thread Map gives you a quick scan of a long chat so you can spot major sections and jump to the part you need without manually scrolling through everything.
Can I save exact messages, not just whole chats?
Yes. You can bookmark important messages and attach notes, which makes it much easier to reuse ideas across different chat sessions.
Is my chat data sent anywhere?
No. GPT Desk is local-first. Your folders, bookmarks, notes, and compacted context stay on your machine.
Do I need an account or setup flow?
No. Install the extension, reload ChatGPT, and start organizing immediately.
