24 alternatives to Rudel – Claude Code / Codex sessions reveals 9 types of AI coder
Claude Code / Codex session metadata can actually tell a story about how you work with AI coding agents. 50 days ago we posted about analyzing 1.6k Claude Code sessions from our own team. Skills were used in 4% of sessions, 26% were abandoned early, and we had no real benchmark for what good looked like. Now across 20k+ sessions, we started looking at behavior patterns from derived session metadata: consistency, intensity, session shape, repo breadth, output, cost intensity, and model range. Nine archetypes fell out, which we turned into playful cards. We built a Spotify Wrapped meets…

We built rudel.ai after realizing we had no visibility into our own Claude Code sessions. We were using it daily but had no idea which sessions were efficient, why some got abandoned, or whether we were actually improving over time. So we built an analytics layer for it. After connecting our own sessions, we ended up with a dataset of 1,573 real Claude Code sessions, 15M+ tokens, 270K+ interactions. Some things we found that surprised us: - Skills were only being used in 4% of our sessions - 26% of sessions are abandoned, most within the first 60 seconds - Session success rate varies…

Claude 2▲248It was quite interesting to vibe code this artifact. I learned some basic ideas about commitment scheme and hash cryptography in the half and hour spent on this. One of the few times vibe coding left me feeling enriched rather than drained. What do you think?

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:…

Built this after realizing I was spending ~$1400/week on Claude Code with almost no visibility into what was actually consuming tokens. Tools like ccusage give a cost breakdown per model and per day, but I wanted to understand usage at the task level. CodeBurn reads the JSONL session transcripts that Claude Code stores locally (~/.claude/projects/) and classifies each turn into 13 categories based on tool usage patterns (no LLM calls involved). One surprising result: about 56% of my spend was on conversation turns with no tool usage. Actual coding (edits/writes) was…

A bunch of companies that I spoke to had their own claude & codex OTel dashboards that showed spend + seats per month. However, none of the dashboards actually analyzed how the engineers worked with the tools and if there were any areas for improvement! That's why I created https://www.promptster.ai. Managers get aggregate level view of code quality and how that ties with team workflows (nothing on a per-engineer level). While engineers get personalized coaching on how they can save tokens while keeping output high. We also have a tool built for individuals to test their local…

Hi y'all. Been working on something that should've been made a long time ago imo. It compiles codebases into O(1) hashmaps that the agent queries to discover the structure of your code/answer questions/write code. It also does complete static analysis checks on any writes the agent makes. Don't take my word for it though. Here are the benchmarks: https://benzi.fly.dev/benchmark. on 2/20 tests, Claude Code (mostly Sonnet on one task) regressed or timed out. Benzi didn't because of course, it has a map it can query and not get lost in the sauce. On the other 18 it…

I love Claude Code but got tired of having nothing to do while I waited for sessions to finish, and managing multiple sessions on the command line was getting annoying and I kept losing track of the tabs. I originally built a quick and dirty version of this for my own use, but decided to polish it up and make it open source. The idea is that you should be able to do all your agentic coding without leaving the tool or needing to go back to a traditional IDE. You can view the diffs, run your program, and merge your changes back. I support OSX and Linux right now, but could add Windows support…

Hey HN, as a former data analyst, I’ve been tooling around trying to get agents to do my old job. The result is this system that gets you maybe 80% of the way there. I think this is a good data point for what the current frontier models are capable of and where they are still lacking (in this case — hypothesis generation and general data intuition). Some initial learnings: - Generating web app-based reports goes much better if there are explicit templates/pre-defined components for the model to use. - Claude can “heal” broken charts if you give it access to chart images and run a…

The magic in AI coding assistants isn't the code -- it's the prompts. I studied the externally observable behavior of Claude Code and recreated it from scratch in Python with the exact same behaviors. It works with any model -- OpenAI, Gemini, Claude. What's surprising: 1. You can keep the core agent really simple, just 280 lines of Python. As long as it supports hooks, custom sub-agents and Model Context Protocol (MCP), then all the rest of the coding-assistant-specific behavior and tools can be factored out into a separate MCP server. 2. The magic is in the prompts (1200 lines of…

Hi HN, I'm Rob. Contextify indexes every Claude Code and Codex session on your machine into one local, searchable database. The current session, in either tool, can search all of it: /total-recall in Claude Code, $total-recall in Codex. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvrvRGp4C9M | Mac app: https://contextify.sh (App Store or DMG) | Linux: CLI with a one-line installer, same search. No signup. I split my work between Claude Code and Codex. When I burn through rate limits on one, I switch to the other, and new models keep leapfrogging each other, so the…

I've been working on this internal project initially both to learn more Vibe-Coding but also to help our teams and projects to use AI more efficiently. As more people used it, it grew to support multiple teams/projects to analyze their Claude Code conversation and optimize them over time (understanding how to write better conversation with Claude Code and share knowledge between them) With time we added support for multiple Claude account management and monitor usage/rate limit. This is a simple project but has proved to be quite useful for our company. We have reached 5000+…
