Claudebin▲258Hi HN, We use Claude Code a lot, and after a long session there isn't a simple way to share exactly what happened with someone else. Prompts, responses, file edits, and tool calls all stay inside the terminal. We built Claudebin to make that easier. It's a plugin that lets you export the current session as a URL containing: - the full message thread - file reads and writes - bash commands - web and MCP calls You can send the link to someone, attach it to a PR, embed part of it, or resume the session locally. It's open source. GitHub:…

Claude Code deleted my research and plan markdown files and informed me: “I accidentally rm -rf'd real directories in my Obsidian vault through a symlink it didn't realize was there: I made a mistake. “ Unfortunately the backup of my documentation accidentally hadn’t run for a month. So I built claude-file-recovery, a CLI-tool and TUI that is able to extract your files from your ~/.claude session history and thankfully I was able to recover my files. It's able to extract any file that Claude Code ever read, edited or wrote. I hope you will never need it, but you can find it on my GitHub…

I got tired of sharing AI demos with terminal screenshots or screen recordings. Claude Code already stores full session transcripts locally as JSONL files. Those logs contain everything: prompts, tool calls, thinking blocks, and timestamps. I built a small CLI tool that converts those logs into an interactive HTML replay. You can step through the session, jump through the timeline, expand tool calls, and inspect the full conversation. The output is a single self-contained HTML file — no dependencies. You can email it, host it anywhere, embed it in a blog post, and it works on mobile. Repo:…

Hi HN, I built this because I got tired of the Claude Code CLI hiding details from me. Recent updates have replaced critical output with summaries like "Read 3 files" or "Edited 2 files". To see what actually happened, I was forced to use `--verbose`, which floods the terminal with unreadable JSON and system prompts. I wanted a middle ground: *Full observability without the noise.* `claude-devtools` is a local Electron app that tails the session logs in `~/.claude/` to reconstruct the execution trace in real-time. *Unlike wrappers, it solves the visibility gap in your native…

I built a Python tool that recursively collects files from nested project directories and prepares them for Claude AI analysis. It can either preserve directory structure or flatten everything with path-encoded filenames. No dependencies, just stdlib. Particularly useful if you're working with multiple files scattered across different folders and tired of constant drag-and-drop.

I wanted to query my own chat history but the JSON exports were a mess to work with. Built a small parser that turns them into clean SQL databases. Parsed 70k+ messages across multiple models. Useful for analyzing chat history, building a personal knowledge base, or archiving conversations. Simple CLI, open source.

Hi HN, I built mcp-tidy to solve a problem I kept running into with Claude Code. As I tried different MCP servers over the past few months, my ~/.claude.json accumulated servers I'd forgotten about. Claude Code loads all tool descriptions (built-in + MCP) into context, so unused servers add overhead you don't need. The tool is simple: three commands. - `mcp-tidy list` - see what's configured (global + per-project) - `mcp-tidy stats` - check actual usage from transcript logs - `mcp-tidy remove --unused` - clean up with automatic backup It parses the JSONL transcript logs in…
