claude-sessions: Terminal UI for Browsing Claude Code Transcripts
What claude-sessions does
claude-sessions is a terminal-based interface that scans your local Claude Code transcript files stored in ~/.claude/ and provides tools for managing past coding sessions. The tool was built using Claude Code itself, with the AI writing the Textual UI, JSONL parser, and session-resume logic while the developer guided the architecture.
Key features
- Scans local
~/.claude/transcript files - Groups sessions by project directory, topic, or work domain
- WASD navigation for browsing sessions
- One-click resume into any session using
claude --resume - Search by keywords (e.g., "agents", "trust-verification")
Technical details
The tool is MIT licensed and open source on GitHub. It operates entirely locally—reading only from your ~/.claude/ folder with no data leaving your machine, no API calls, and no credentials required. The developer is seeking feedback on UX and asking how others keep track of work across multiple sessions.
