What problem does it solve?

Back up the user-authored parts of ~/.claude/ to a timestamped folder and restore from it later.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Creates timestamped backups under ~/.claude-backup/claude-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS and mirrors key dotclaude content to enable safe restoration.
  • Restore is additive by default and supports a dry-run first via restore.sh, with --apply to perform the actual restore.
  • Includes slash-command wrappers for explicit invocation when natural-language triggering isn't desirable.

Quick Start

Run the backup script to create a timestamped backup, then run the restore script to recover from that snapshot.
