A Claude Code plugin that exports conversation threads to shareable links via GitHub Gists.

This is inspired by ampcode.com threads.

demo720.mov

Features

• Exports Claude Code sessions to self-contained HTML files
• Creates shareable preview links via GitHub Gists
• Session Linking: Navigate between related sessions with Previous/Next links
  • When you use /clear to start a new session, it automatically links to the previous session
  • Exported gists include navigation to browse your session history within a single claude code terminal session.

Installation

Prerequisites

• Go 1.20+
• Claude Code installed and set up
• gh CLI installed and authenticated (for Gist creation)

Install as Claude Code Plugin

# 1. Install the CLI binary
go install github.com/73ai/workbench/cmd/workbench@latest

# 2. Start Claude Code
claude

# 3. Add the marketplace from GitHub
/plugin marketplace add 73ai/workbench

# 4. Install the plugin
/plugin install workbench@73ai

NOTE: Enable auto-updates for the plugin when adding marketplace and installing plugin to get the latest features and fixes.

Usage

Slash Command (Recommended)

After installing the plugin, use the /share command in Claude Code:

/workbench:share

This creates a GitHub Gist and returns a shareable preview link.

Session Linking with /clear

When you use /clear to start a new conversation within the same project, the plugin automatically tracks session relationships:

1. Your sessions form a linked chain (Session A → Session B → Session C)
2. When you /share, the exported HTML includes navigation links
3. Viewers can browse through your session history using Previous/Next links
4. All linked session gists are automatically updated with the correct navigation

How It Works

Claude Code stores conversation data in JSONL files at:

~/.claude/projects/{encoded-project-path}/{session-id}.jsonl

When you run /share:

1. The plugin finds your current session
2. Parses the conversation messages
3. Converts to a self-contained HTML file with syntax highlighting
4. Creates/updates a GitHub Gist
5. Returns a preview URL via gistpreview.github.io
