# Topics

In LobeHub, each conversation with an Agent is organized as a Topic. Topics give you a structured way to manage your conversation history — search across them, rename for clarity, favorite what you return to often, and clean up what you no longer need.

## Search Topics

On the conversation page, click **More** in the topic list to open the search. Type a keyword to quickly find the conversation you're looking for — no need to scroll through everything.

## Rename Topics

Give Topics meaningful names so they're easy to identify at a glance.

- **Manual rename** — Find the Topic, click **Rename**, type a new name, and save.
- **Smart rename** — Click **Smart Rename** on the Topic and the system generates a name based on the conversation content automatically.

## Duplicate Topics

Create a copy of any Topic to preserve the original conversation while branching off in a new direction. Find the Topic, click **Duplicate** — an identical copy is created. Useful for exploring different discussion paths from the same starting point.

**When to duplicate:** You want to try a different approach without losing the original thread. For example, "What if we used a different architecture?" — duplicate the Topic, ask the new question, and compare the two branches later.

## Favorite Topics

Mark important or frequently used Topics as favorites. Click the favorite icon on the Topic. Favorited Topics appear in the **Favorites** section of the topic list for quick access.

## Delete Topics

Find the Topic you want to remove, click **Delete**, and confirm. The Topic is removed from your list. Deletion is permanent — the conversation and any Notebook documents in that Topic are removed.

## Topic List

Topics are organized by time to help you find conversations from any period.

- **Favorites** — All your favorited Topics, always at the top.
- **Time-Based Groups** — Other Topics are automatically grouped by creation time. Expand a group to see all Topics from that period.

If you'd rather see everything in a flat list, switch to **Ungrouped** view.

## Use Cases

**Project-based organization** — Create a Topic per project or client. All discussions, notes, and outputs for that project stay in one place.

**Experiment with ideas** — Duplicate a Topic before trying a risky or divergent approach. Keep the original intact while exploring alternatives.

**Quick access to frequent work** — Favorite Topics you return to daily (e.g., "Daily standup notes", "Code review assistant"). They stay at the top of the list.

**Cleanup and focus** — Delete completed or abandoned Topics to keep your list manageable. Search and favorites make it easy to find what matters.

## Tips

- **Use Smart Rename for long conversations** — Let the system suggest a name based on content; you can always edit it later.
- **Favorite before you need it** — If you know you'll come back to a Topic, favorite it now. Saves time when you're in a hurry.
- **Duplicate instead of starting over** — When a conversation branches, duplicate rather than copying content into a new Topic. You keep the full context.
