Recover Claude Code Chat History in VS Code Without Losing Context

I published a new article about something many developers will appreciate: how to recover your Claude Code chat history in VS Code without losing the early context that gets compacted away. The key idea is simple: - Claude Code stores history locally in ~/.claude/projects. - The logs are saved as JSONL files. - Context compaction affects the live session, not the stored history. - A Python CLI can help you retrieve and read the transcripts. If you’ve ever lost a good idea because you clicked “yes” too quickly or forgot to save your prompt trail, this workflow can save you time and frustration.
