How Am I Doing — local-only self-audit & coaching for Claude Code sessions

How Am I Doing (HAID)

A self-audit and coaching layer for Claude Code sessions.

HAID reads your own Claude Code session transcripts, builds a graph of what happened, and produces annotated, coaching-oriented reports. The aim is less "here is your bill" and more "here is where you and the agent diverged, why, and what to change."

Nothing leaves your machine unless you explicitly choose to submit aggregate metrics.

Status: Phase 1 complete; the full scoring stack now runs on real sessions — the deterministic pipeline runs end to end on real transcripts (163 tests, stdlib-only, no model in the loop):

• Session parsing (src/haid/session/) — forest-aware JSONL parsing: dedup, branch/rewind classification, subagent stitching, overflow resolution, SQLite cache.

• Session graph (src/haid/graph/) — L0 spine + L1 action/IO graph (reads/produces/edits from structuredPatch), signatures, per-timeline scoping.

• Waste metrics (src/haid/metrics/) — rereads, retries, retouched, unused_context: one rule each, run at session and window scope, as benchmarkable token-rates placed against a per-scope baseline.

• Analysis window (src/haid/window.py) — the multi-session unit metrics run over (a project over a timeframe, default 30 days).

• Scoring (src/haid/scoring/) — the relative achievement/cost value scorer (difficulty + cleanliness placement, volume, normalized-token cost, value combiner), calibration-validated. Built ahead of the earlier phases.

• haid metrics (src/haid/metrics/{json_out,view}.py + CLI) — the measured substrate: four waste metrics at session and window scope, each placed against a per-scope baseline, as a Markdown inspection view + a JSON hand-off to the later "why" passes.

• Bridge (src/haid/bridge/) — reconstructs an analysis window's net code diff from the transcript alone (replay, no git) plus its normalized-token cost, so haid bridge and haid value --project/--session now run the full scoring stack on real sessions (previously the scorer only ran on supplied/calibration diffs).

All validated on real transcripts (163 tests). The user-facing report and visualization are the final product, composing this substrate with the Phase-2/3 why-analysis and the value score. Next: the diagnosis router, episode segmentation (Phase 2), and the visualization (Phase 1.5). See plans/roadmap.md and plans/phase1-build.md.

What this is not

Not another token counter. Raw usage accounting is already well covered (ccusage and similar). The entire value lives one layer up, in diagnosis and coaching — telling you not what you spent but how to get better. A tool that confidently misdiagnoses is worse than nothing, because people act on it, so trustworthiness of the diagnosis is the central design constraint throughout. See docs/trust-discipline.md.

The one big idea: the session graph

Underneath everything is one data structure: a graph of the session(s). Turns and tool-calls are nodes; edges capture responds-to, reads, and produces relationships. The two headline features are just two operations on this one graph:

• "Why did you do X?" → a backwards traversal from X to its trigger.
• "Where did the tokens go?" → a weighting over the same nodes.

Build the graph once; get both views from it. Design in docs/session-graph-design.md.

Two orthogonal analysis passes

1. User-anchored pass — catches misalignment. Works backwards from user messages; corrections are ground truth ("no, I meant…", "that's wrong").
2. Signature-scanning pass — catches silent inefficiency. Scans for objective, reasoning-free waste signatures (redundant re-reads, retry loops, re-touched lines, unused context).

The two are orthogonal: one finds where the agent did the wrong thing, the other where it did the right thing wastefully. See docs/architecture.md.
