What problem does it solve?

It turns messy, scattered Claude Code history into structured, searchable Obsidian knowledge so you can reuse prior decisions, workflows, and insights.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Claude history ingestion & distillation: Extracts knowledge from CLI projects, desktop local-agent-mode sessions, conversation transcripts, and audit logs.
  • Append or full rebuild modes: Updates only new/modified items by using a vault-level manifest, or reprocesses everything when needed.
  • Topic clustering into the wiki: Groups extracted knowledge by topic and maps it into appropriate wiki pages (projects, concepts, skills, entities, synthesis) while keeping provenance and confidence signals.
  • Privacy-first processing: Skips secrets and focuses on distilled knowledge rather than verbatim chat logs.

Quick Start

Use the claude-history-ingest skill to process your Claude history and import distilled knowledge into your Obsidian wiki vault.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn Claude Code conversation history into an Obsidian wiki?

The skill processes both CLI session data and desktop local-agent-mode sessions, extracting user and assistant content to write structured wiki pages with provenance and confidence metadata.

Does Claude history ingestion support appending new conversations to an existing vault?

Yes, it supports append modes using delta detection via a vault manifest. This allows updating only new or modified items from conversation transcripts without reprocessing the entire history.

What is conversation mining for knowledge base distillation?

Conversation mining for knowledge base distillation is the process of extracting reusable knowledge from past chats. It skips secrets and verbatim logs, grouping extracted insights by topic into concepts, projects, and entities.

Can I use this to extract workflow patterns from Claude audit logs?

Yes, you can extract workflow patterns from Claude audit logs. The ingestion process optionally mines these audit logs to distill workflow patterns directly into structured wiki pages.

What is the best way to organize past Claude chats into a searchable knowledge base?

The best way to organize past Claude chats into a searchable knowledge base is by clustering extracted topics into mapped wiki pages. This includes projects, concepts, skills, and entities while keeping provenance and confidence signals.

Why does wiki ingestion skip verbatim chat logs during data distillation?

Wiki ingestion skips verbatim chat logs during data distillation to maintain a privacy-first approach. It focuses on extracting and synthesizing reusable knowledge rather than storing sensitive raw conversation transcripts.
