/chat list command does not display saved chats #7655

What happened?

When I run the /chat list command, it returns an empty list, even though I have multiple saved chats. I can confirm that the chat logs and checkpoint files (e.g., checkpoint-brick-breaker-game.json) exist in the C:\Users\j_two.gemini\tmp directory. This issue occurs on Windows.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the /chat list command to display a list of all my saved chats, using the names I provided when I saved them (e.g., "brick-breaker-game",
"mcp-events"). The command should read the checkpoint-*.json files to get the saved chat names and display them in the list.
