## The problem it solves

Codex and Claude Code keep valuable project context in local session files. That
is good for privacy, but painful when you switch machines, rebuild a laptop, or
want to continue a thread in the other agent.

`cct` turns that local context into a simple handoff:

```text
Machine A:  cct export --project .      ->  project.codexbundle
                        copy it however you trust
Machine B:  cct import ./project.codexbundle
```

No cloud account, hosted sync service, or background process by default. You move
one `.codexbundle` over a channel you trust, then import it after checksum
verification. The agents' indexes are left alone and re-scan the session files
themselves.

It works for Codex, Claude Code, and cross-agent handoff. The same flow is
available as a CLI, a terminal wizard (`cct ui`), and a local browser app
(`cct app`).

## Demo

Export on one machine, then import or incrementally sync onto the other:

![Incremental sync with import --merge](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer/Main/demo/clips/02-sync.gif)

The optional local desktop UI uses the same engine:

All recordings use throwaway demo sessions, never a real `~/.codex` or
`~/.claude`.

## Install

```bash
# From source (Go 1.23+)
go install github.com/ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer/cmd/cct@latest
```

Or download a prebuilt binary from
[Releases](https://github.com/ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer/releases), or build
from a clone:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer.git
cd codex-claude-transfer && go build -o cct ./cmd/cct
```

Package manifests for **Homebrew** and **Scoop** live in
[`packaging/`](packaging/).

## 30-second use

```bash
cct doctor
cct export --project .
# copy project.codexbundle to the other machine
cct import ./project.codexbundle --dry-run
cct import ./project.codexbundle
# Optional: ask Codex to discover and verify changed threads immediately.
cct import ./project.codexbundle --reconcile
```

Use `--tool claude` to export Claude Code sessions. Use `import --to claude` or
`import --to codex` to translate a session into the other agent. After importing,
restart the agent so it re-scans the files. For a native Codex bundle, opt-in
`--reconcile` can instead ask Codex's own app-server to read and verify the
changed thread IDs immediately; failure leaves the imported rollout files intact
and prints restart guidance plus an exact `cct resume <thread-id> --run`
fallback only when the rollout ID is a valid UUID and the command can be
rendered safely. The terminal wizard (`cct ui`) and browser app (`cct app`)
expose the same opt-in native Codex reconciliation flow.

### Relocate a project

`cct relocate` rewrites the recorded working directory (`cwd`) in every matching
session, so the sessions remain grouped with the project at its new path:

```bash
# The project was already copied or moved; NEW exists.
cct relocate /old/project /new/project --dry-run
cct relocate /old/project /new/project

# Move the project too; NEW must not exist yet.
cct relocate /old/project /new/project --move-project

# Claude Code: transcripts also move into the folder encoding the new path.
cct relocate /old/project /new/project --tool claude
```

The command preserves session backups and never modifies Codex's SQLite database
or `~/.claude.json`. Add `--include-archived` to relocate archived Codex sessions
too. For Claude Code, each transcript is written under the new project folder
first and its original removed only afterward, so a session id is never
duplicated; `cct undo` reverses both halves. See the
[usage guide](docs/usage.md#relocate-a-project) for rollback behavior and
same-filesystem moves.

### Let your agent do it: sessions through git

`cct skill install` writes a skill into your Claude Code home that teaches the
agent one workflow: save this project's sessions into git when you stop, restore
them after a clone on the other machine.

![Install the skill, point the project at a private session store, restore it on a second machine](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer/Main/demo/clips/16-skill.gif)

```bash
cct skill install                       # ~/.claude/skills/cct-session-sync/
cct skill print --plain >> ~/.codex/AGENTS.md   # the same for Codex
```

The recommended layout keeps chat history **out** of the code repo: one private
session-store repo holds every project's bundles, and each project commits only
a small reference file pointing at it.

```bash
cct config set repo-sync-repo git@github.com:you/cct-sessions.git
cct skill init     # writes .cct/sessions.json + .cct/README.md — commit them
cct skill show     # where the history lives and the exact commands
```

```text
~/cct-sessions/projects/my-app/
  claude/claude-all.codexbundle      # every session for this project
  claude/groups/auth-refactor.codexbundle   # optional: one topic per file
  codex/codex-all.codexbundle
```

Without any agent, it is still just two commands — save with `cct export -o <that
path>` and commit, restore with `cct import <that path> --merge --map-cwd-here`.
Keeping the bundle in the project's own repo under `.cct/` stays supported for
private repos.

A bundle is readable by everyone with repo access, forever, so the skill asks
once whether to commit it plainly (private repos only) or `age`-encrypted, and
stores the answer in `cct config`. It never pushes or passes `--allow-secrets`
on its own, and treats a reference file it did not write as untrusted. See the
[usage guide](docs/usage.md#carry-sessions-through-git).

## Compatibility

Codex's and Claude Code's on-disk formats are their own internals and can change
at any time. This table records what each agent's support covers and the newest
agent version it was last verified against:

| Agent | Last tested | Supported data | Known gaps |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **Codex CLI / app-server** | 0.144.6 (2026-07-23) | Sessions (`rollout-*.jsonl`, compressed `.jsonl.zst`), session metadata, git context, inline images; synthetic live-import `thread/read` reconciliation | SQLite/session_index are never written directly by cct; `--reconcile` is capability-probed because app-server is experimental; `.jsonl.zst` needs external `zstd` for metadata, `--map-cwd`, and merge |
| **Claude Code** | 2.1.212 (2026-07-18) | Conversations (`projects/<encoded-cwd>/*.jsonl`), tool events, project mapping, project relocation (`relocate --tool claude`, which also moves the project's `memory/`), opt-in auto memory in bundles (`--with-memory`) | `~/.claude.json` config is never touched; auto memory travels only when `--with-memory` is passed on both export and import; sidechains/subagent transcripts transfer as files but are not translated cross-agent; the project-folder encoding is lossy, so two project paths can share one folder (relocation rewrites those in place) |
| **Cross-agent handoff** (`import --to`) | same versions | Conversation text and project context, translated between the two formats | A translation, not a clone: tool calls, command output, runtime state, and provider-specific ids do not carry over byte-for-byte |

If a newer agent version breaks something, please
[open an issue](https://github.com/ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer/issues) — with
synthetic session data only, never a real bundle (see
[SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md)).

## Repository traffic metrics

The daily `Repository traffic metrics` workflow stores a public snapshot at
`metrics/traffic.json` on the separate `metrics` branch. It records GitHub's
14-day clone totals and merges the daily counts into an idempotent history.
It also records the cumulative download count of installable release binaries
and one daily snapshot of the displayed metrics. The current release total
still covers every published release; download deltas and charts are complete
only from the first stored daily snapshot.
The cumulative clone count is complete only from `tracked_since`; GitHub does
not expose older clone traffic. Daily unique-cloner counts are retained for
auditability, but they are never summed into an all-time unique value.

The workflow needs one repository secret named `CCT_TRAFFIC_TOKEN`. Create it
once as follows:

1. Open GitHub **Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens →
   Fine-grained tokens** and choose **Generate new token**.
2. Select the `ahmojo` resource owner, choose **Only select repositories**,
   and select only `ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer`.
3. Under **Repository permissions**, set **Administration** to
   **Read-only**. Do not grant write access or access to other repositories.
4. Generate the token and copy it immediately. GitHub shows it only once.
5. In `ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer`, open **Settings → Secrets and
   variables → Actions → New repository secret**.
6. Name the secret exactly `CCT_TRAFFIC_TOKEN`, paste the token, and save it.
7. Run **Actions → Repository traffic metrics → Run workflow** once. The normal
   `GITHUB_TOKEN` writes only the generated file to the `metrics` branch.

The token is sent only to GitHub's protected traffic endpoint. It is never
written to the metrics file, commits, workflow logs, or a browser response.
The generated file is publicly available at:

```text
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ahmojo/codex-claude-transfer/metrics/metrics/traffic.json
```

Clone traffic can include automated access from CI systems, scanners, bots, and
other services. No attempt is made to estimate or subtract that traffic.
