TUI launcher for Claude Code sessions

Browse all your projects, see git status at a glance, expand into sessions and branches, then launch everything in parallel Terminal windows.

---

Install

Requires Bun >= 1.3.0 and macOS (uses Terminal.app for launching).

# Clone and install
git clone https://github.com/alezmad/cladm.git
cd cladm
bun install

# Register the `cladm` command globally
bun link

Now you can run cladm from anywhere.

Usage

cladm           # launch with real project data
cladm --demo    # launch with mock data (try it out without any history)

How it works

cladm reads ~/.claude/history.jsonl to discover every project you've used with Claude Code, then enriches each one with live git metadata. The result is a fast, keyboard-driven picker that shows you everything at a glance.

Screenshots

Project list

The main view shows all discovered projects sorted by most recent Claude usage. Each row displays the project name, git branch, sync status, last commit, working tree state, Claude activity, session count, message count, and detected stack.

Column	Description
PROJECT	Relative path from ~/Desktop
BRANCH	Current git branch (truncated to 8 chars)
SYNC	Remote sync: ✓ synced, ↑n ahead, ↓n behind, ✗ no remote
COMMIT	Time since last commit
MESSAGE	Last commit message
DIRTY	Working tree: clean, or +staged ~modified ?untracked
LAST USE	Time since last Claude session
SES	Total Claude session count
MSGS	Total message count across sessions
STACK	Auto-detected stack tags (ts, py, rust, go, docker, etc.)

Expanded view

Press → on any project to expand it and see branches and individual sessions with their conversation previews.

Each session shows:

• Title — auto-generated session title
• Last prompt — your most recent message
• Claude's response — the assistant's last reply
• Size & age — session file size and time since last use

Select a branch to launch Claude with a prompt to switch to that branch. Select individual sessions to resume them directly.

Keybindings

Key	Action
↑ ↓	Navigate
Space	Toggle selection
→	Expand project (branches + sessions)
←	Collapse project
a	Select all
n	Deselect all
s	Cycle sort mode (recent → name → commit → sessions)
Enter	Launch selected in Terminal.app
PageUp PageDown	Jump 15 rows
Home End	Jump to top/bottom
q Esc	Quit

What gets launched

Each selected project opens a new Terminal.app window running:

cd /path/to/project && claude --dangerously-skip-permissions

If you selected a specific session, it resumes it with --resume <session-id>. If you selected a non-current branch, it adds a prompt to switch branches first.

Multiple sessions in the same project open as tabs in the same window.

Stack detection

cladm auto-detects project stacks by checking for common files:

File	Tag
package.json	node
pyproject.toml / requirements.txt	py
Cargo.toml	rust
go.mod	go
CLAUDE.md	claude
Dockerfile / docker-compose.yml	docker
