The only Claude Code session manager you need
Claude Code writes a lot. Every session leaves a transcript from the main session and its subagents. Then goes the environment, file history, jobs and todos. That's tons of disk. Additionally, it auto-purges all the sessions older than 30 days, but if you decide to prevent that and keep some old sessions for longer, it can stack up a massive pile pretty quickly.
This is where Claudenator comes to the rescue. It shows all your sessions, grouped by project folder, sorts them by whatever column you like and shows tons of additional information that would help you manage them and purge only real garbage.
Features
- Shows every session, its title, project, size, date, messages, model, git branch, tools and moar.
- A details pane under the table, and a full-screen view for the whole story.
- Order the table by any column and narrow it to what you look for with a filter.
- A deleted session first goes to a Trash so it disappears but is not yet gone and can be either restored or purged for good.
- Comes with "Deep scan" feature, that process the full transcript to give you more stats for nerds.
- Configurable TUI with themes, layout, time formats and more.
