# toolpath-claude

Derive Toolpath provenance documents from Claude conversation logs.

When Claude Code writes your code, the conversation — the reasoning, the
tool calls, the abandoned approaches — is the provenance. This crate
reads those conversations directly and maps them to Toolpath documents
so every AI-assisted change has a traceable origin.

## Overview

Reads Claude Code conversation data from `~/.claude/projects/` and provides:

- **Conversation reading**: Parse JSONL conversation files into typed structures
- **Query**: Filter and search conversation entries by role, tool use, text content
- **Derivation**: Map conversations to Toolpath Path documents
- **Watching**: Monitor conversation files for live updates (feature-gated)

## Derivation

Convert Claude conversations into Toolpath documents:

```rust,no_run
use toolpath_claude::{ClaudeConvo, derive::{DeriveConfig, derive_path}};

let manager = ClaudeConvo::new();
let convo = manager.read_conversation("/Users/alex/project", "session-uuid")?;

let config = DeriveConfig::default();
let path = derive_path(&convo, &config);
# Ok::<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>>(())
```

### Mapping

| Claude concept | Toolpath concept |
|---|---|
| Session (JSONL file) | Path |
| Project path | `path.base.uri` as `file:///...` |
| User message | Step with `actor: "human:user"` |
| Assistant message | Step with `actor: "agent:{model}"` |
| Tool use (Write/Edit) | `change` entry keyed by file path |
| Assistant text | `meta.intent` |
| Sidechain entries | Steps parented to branch point |

## Reading conversations

```rust,no_run
use toolpath_claude::ClaudeConvo;

let manager = ClaudeConvo::new();

// List projects
let projects = manager.list_projects()?;

// Read a conversation
let convo = manager.read_conversation("/Users/alex/project", "session-uuid")?;
println!("{} entries", convo.entries.len());

// Most recent conversation
let latest = manager.most_recent_conversation("/Users/alex/project")?;

// Search
let matches = manager.find_conversations_with_text("/Users/alex/project", "authentication")?;
# Ok::<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>>(())
```

## Querying

```rust,ignore
use toolpath_claude::{ConversationQuery, MessageRole};

let query = ConversationQuery::new(&convo);
let user_msgs = query.by_role(MessageRole::User);
let tool_uses = query.tool_uses_by_name("Write");
let errors = query.errors();
let matches = query.contains_text("authentication");
```

## Watching

With the `watcher` feature (enabled by default):

```rust,ignore
use toolpath_claude::{AsyncConversationWatcher, WatcherConfig};

let config = WatcherConfig::new("/Users/alex/project", "session-uuid");
let mut watcher = AsyncConversationWatcher::new(config)?;
let handle = watcher.start().await?;

// New entries arrive via the handle
while let Some(entries) = handle.recv().await {
    for entry in entries {
        println!("{}: {:?}", entry.uuid, entry.message);
    }
}
```

## Feature flags

| Feature | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `watcher` | yes | Filesystem watching via `notify` + `tokio` |
