goosedump

goosedump is a coding agent context data browser. It supports Claude, Codex, Crush, Gemini, Goose, OpenCode, and Pi. It builds on top of the ideas of lllyasviel/VCC.

Features:

• Structured JSON output on stdout, so you can render it however you like.
• BM25 keyword ranking (with scores) for natural queries.
• Glob matching for filtering messages.
• Format conversion: re-render any context in another provider's native format.
• Import contexts into another provider's store (with delete, a "move").

Usage

# List contexts across all providers (optionally filtered by a glob).
goosedump list
goosedump list goose:*

# Show a full transcript as structured goosedump JSON (default).
goosedump show goose:abc123

# Rank or filter messages; search hits carry BM25 scores.
goosedump grep claude:abc123 "TODO"
goosedump search claude:abc123 "race condition" -p2

# Produce a compaction summary (always emitted in its own fixed schema).
goosedump compact goose:abc123

# Delete contexts matching a glob (same matching as list); --dry-run previews.
goosedump delete goose:abc123
goosedump delete 'goose:*'
goosedump delete '*' --dry-run

# Import contexts matching a glob (same matching as list) into a provider,
# converting each to the destination's native on-disk shape. A fresh
# destination-native id is assigned; sessions already present in the
# destination (same provider, or matching content) are silently skipped, so
# re-running is a no-op. Import then delete moves a session between providers.
goosedump import goose 'claude:*'         # copy every Claude session into Goose
goosedump import goose 'claude:*' && goosedump delete 'claude:*'   # move them

# Convert a context to another provider's native format with --output-format.
# JSONL backends (claude, codex, pi) emit the exact native session file;
# SQLite backends (crush, goose, opencode) emit a row-oriented JSON projection
# of their tables that is straightforward to insert into the live store.
goosedump show claude:abc123 --output-format goose

A natively converted context round-trips: the output re-reads through the target provider's reader to the same internal representation. Session metadata the internal representation does not carry (per-message timestamps, model names) is omitted or synthesized.
