What is XED /TUI?

XED /TUI is a terminal browser for Claude Code sessions — inspired by mutt (email) and ranger (file browser). It runs entirely locally, requires no API and no cloud service.

Who needs it: Anyone using Claude Code daily who wants to browse, annotate, resume, and manage their sessions directly in the terminal.

Why XED /TUI?

ZED and Claude Code have no built-in tool to read, annotate, search and resume sessions. Sessions are stored as .jsonl files locally — human-readable, no lock-in. XED /TUI is the browser for them.
