GitHub Career
Greendam’s public repositories include novocab, described as token counting without a vocabulary, and SAIAutoSaveTool, which automates saving in SAI. These small utilities sit alongside his work on inspecting and recovering agent-session records.[1]
Contributions
csift searches Claude Code’s JSONL session files by record type and returns the exchange surrounding a match. It can locate plans, follow subagent sessions and extract attached images, avoiding the assumption that every record marked user was written by a person.[2]
Ideas
Its recovery workflow replays recorded reads and edits to recover files and deleted plans. When an external change prevents exact reconstruction, it marks gaps rather than claiming a complete restore. Other commands recover dialogue across compactions within a stated budget and report where they stopped.[2]

Typed search, plan lookup, image extraction and bounded file recovery from Claude Code transcripts.
Begin with typed search and inspect one complete exchange. Read the recovery limits before relying on a restored file, especially where a transcript records outside changes.
