Claude Code

Auto-save your Claude Code sessions

Coding sessions in Claude Code are hard to find again once the terminal closes. Setting up the SHISHO CLI registers a Claude Code SessionEnd hook, so each session's JSONL log is sent to SHISHO automatically. SHISHO summarizes the session with AI and makes it fully searchable — when you did what, and how you fixed it.

What gets saved to SHISHO

  • Your prompts and Claude Code's responses (the full conversation log)
  • Tool usage history (file edits, commands run, and so on)
  • An AI-written session summary (what was done, decisions made, open items)
  • Session date and working directory (stored per day)

Setup steps

Run in your terminal:

$ npx shisho setup
  1. 1

    In a terminal with Node.js 18 or later, run the command below.

  2. 2

    A browser window opens — sign in with your SHISHO account to authorize.

  3. 3

    Done. A SessionEnd hook is added to Claude Code's settings.json and future sessions are saved to SHISHO automatically.

  4. 4

    Open the Sessions page in SHISHO to search and browse saved sessions.

Frequently asked questions

When is a session sent to SHISHO?
At session end, via the SessionEnd hook. On Plus and Pro plans there is also a 30-minute periodic sync, so long sessions show up while they are still in progress. On the Free plan you can send manually with shisho push.
Where does Claude Code store its conversation logs?
Claude Code writes one JSONL file per session under ~/.claude/projects/. The SHISHO CLI reads those files and sends them, so there is nothing to export by hand.
Does it upload my source code or secrets?
Only the conversation log (prompts, responses, and the record of tool calls) is sent. Repository files themselves are not uploaded. Everything stays in your own account, isolated by row-level security.
How do I remove the hook?
Run shisho disconnect to remove the hook. Sessions already saved remain in SHISHO.
