# Implementation Plan: Selectable GUI Text & UX Improvements

## Phase 1: Research & Core Widget Wrapping [checkpoint: ef942bb]
- [x] Task: Audit `gui_2.py` for all `imgui.text()` and `imgui.text_wrapped()` calls in target areas.
    - [x] Identify the exact locations in `_render_discussion_panel`, `_render_comms_history_panel`, and `_render_ai_settings_panel`. Findings: `_render_discussion_panel` (historical/current entries, commit SHA), `_render_heavy_text` (comms/tool payloads), `_render_provider_panel` (Session ID), `_render_token_budget_panel` (telemetry metrics).
- [x] Task: Implement a helper function/component for "Selectable Label".
    - [x] This helper should wrap `imgui.input_text` with `InputTextFlags_.read_only` and proper styling to mimic a standard label. Implemented `_render_selectable_label` in `gui_2.py`.
