cc-session-utils: TUI Dashboard for Managing Claude Code Sessions and Costs
A developer has released cc-session-utils, a terminal UI dashboard for managing Claude Code session files and tracking usage costs. The tool addresses the accumulation of session files, debug logs, and orphaned data in the ~/.claude directory.
Key Features
- Cost Dashboard – Shows total and per-model (Opus/Sonnet/Haiku) cost and token breakdowns with daily, weekly, and monthly tables. Identifies top 10 projects by spend.
- Project Management – Tree-view of all projects with ability to preview sessions, view conversations, and delete unnecessary files.
- Orphan Detection – Finds sessions that no longer belong to any project and enables bulk cleaning.
- Session Migration – Move sessions between projects with per-session selection.
- Backup & Restore – Back up config or full .claude directory with auto-rollback protection.
Installation and Requirements
Requires Python 3.11+ and is built with Textual framework. Installation for Linux/macOS:
pip install cc-session-utils cc-tuiThe developer notes the entire tool was built using Claude Code itself. The project is open source with MIT license and available on GitHub.
