Individual skill
read-claude-code-history
Reads, searches and exports local Claude Code and Kimi CLI history without resuming work: timelines, verbatim user input, keyword or fuzzy recall, file recovery from transcripts, and which session ran a given command in a known time window. Use when the user asks what was said, wants a session ID or original context, needs proof of what a session contained, or needs past-session runtime evidence about commands, tool calls and hook runs — query this index instead of raw-scanning transcript files. Not for Codex (use read-codex-history); with no platform or several named, start at local-conversation-history.

# Read Claude Code History
Read Claude Code evidence only. Do not resume the old process, edit its project,
or turn a read request into a continuation task. When the user later asks to act,
hand the verified evidence to `daymade-claude-code:continue-claude-code-work`.
## Route by the requested result
| User wants | Use |
|---|---|
| Recent Claude Code sessions, titles, dates, or IDs | Indexed metadata only; the bundled `list_local_history.py` currently reads all candidate bodies before date/limit filtering, so do not use it for a broad inventory |
| One known Session reconstructed as a chronological evidence briefing | `scripts/read_claude_session.py --session <ID>` |
| Original tool input and paired result from one exact Session, selected by tool name, literal text, ordinal or time | `scripts/read_claude_session.py --session <ID> --tool-evidence --contains '<literal>'`; see **Original tool call/result evidence** below |
| The exact command behind a hook audit row that records a Session ID and a command SHA-256 instead of the text | `scripts/read_claude_session.py --session <ID> --find-command-sha256 <HEX>`; see **Command behind a hook audit row** below |
