Session intelligence plugin for Claude Code. Reads the JSONL session files that Claude Code writes to
~/.claude/projects/ and makes them searchable and analyzable.
What It Does
Claude Code records every session as a JSONL file — messages, tool calls, token counts, diffs, tasks. This plugin reads those files and provides two interfaces. Most operations are read-only; delete and cleanup skills can remove session files when explicitly invoked.
11 skills usable directly in Claude Code:
| Skill | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Full-text search across every session |
| Token usage, model distribution, tool breakdown |
| List sessions sorted by recency, size, or duration |
| Deep dive into a specific session |
| Compare two sessions — files, tools, topics |
| Chronological view of sessions on a project |
| Generate a context recovery prompt from any session |
| Find pending and orphaned tasks across sessions |
| Export a session as clean markdown |
| Find empty, tiny, or stale sessions |
| Delete sessions and their associated tasks |
Web dashboard at
localhost:3000 with four views: Dashboard (summary stats), Sessions (sortable table with bulk operations), Search (full-text with context snippets), Tasks (grouped by status with orphan detection).
Install
/plugin marketplace add apappascs/claude-code-sessions /plugin install claude-code-sessions@claude-code-sessions
No API keys. No config. No runtime dependencies. It reads what's already on disk.
For the dashboard:
bun run ui # → http://localhost:3000
Architecture
Same TypeScript modules power skills, dashboard, and CLI:
lib/formatters.ts — pure utilities, no I/O lib/session-parser.ts — parses one JSONL file into structured data lib/session-store.ts — scans all sessions, aggregates, searches ui/server.ts — HTTP endpoints + static file serving
Each lib file doubles as a standalone CLI:
bun run lib/session-store.ts list --sort recency --limit 10 bun run lib/session-store.ts search "database migration" --since 2025-01-01 bun run lib/session-parser.ts stats path/to/session.jsonl
Use Cases
- Find the session where you solved a specific problem weeks ago
- See which projects consume the most tokens
- Track pending tasks across all sessions and projects
- Resume a past session with full context
- Compare how two sessions approached the same problem
- Export session transcripts for documentation
