Stop guessing. See exactly what Claude is doing.
A desktop app that turns Claude Code's opaque session logs into a visual, searchable, actionable interface.
Why This Exists
There are many GUI wrappers for Claude Code — Conductor, Craft Agents, Vibe Kanban, 1Code, ccswitch, and others. I tried them all. None of them solved the actual problem:
They wrap Claude Code. They inject their own prompts, add their own abstractions, and change how Claude behaves. If you love the terminal — and I do — you don't want that. You want Claude Code exactly as it is.
They only show their own sessions. Run something in the terminal? It doesn't exist in their UI. You can only see what was executed through their tool. The terminal and the GUI are two separate worlds.
You can't debug what went wrong. A session failed — but why? The context filled up too fast — but what consumed it? A subagent spawned 5 child agents — but what did they do? Even in the terminal, scrolling back through a long session to reconstruct what happened is nearly impossible.
You can't monitor what matters. Want to know when Claude reads .env? When a single tool call exceeds 4K tokens of context? When a teammate sends a shutdown request? You'd have to wire up hooks manually, every time, for every project.
claude-devtools takes a different approach. It doesn't wrap or modify Claude Code at all. It reads the session logs that already exist on your machine (~/.claude/) and turns them into a rich, interactive interface — regardless of whether the session ran in the terminal, in an IDE, or through another tool.
Zero configuration. No API keys. Works with every session you've ever run.
Key Features
🔍 Visible Context Tracking
See exactly what's eating your context window. The Session Context Panel breaks down token usage across 6 categories — CLAUDE.md files, @-mentioned files, tool outputs, extended thinking, team coordination, and user messages — so you can instantly identify what's consuming tokens and optimize your workflow.
🛠️ Rich Tool Call Inspector
Every tool call is paired with its result in an expandable card. Specialized viewers render each tool natively:
- Read calls show syntax-highlighted code with line numbers
- Edit calls show inline diffs with added/removed highlighting
- Bash calls show command output
- Subagent calls show the full execution tree, expandable in-place
🔔 Custom Notification Triggers
Define rules for when you want to be notified. Match on regex patterns, assign colors, and filter your inbox by trigger. Built-in triggers catch common errors out of the box; add your own for project-specific patterns.
👥 Team & Subagent Visualization
When Claude uses multi-agent orchestration, see the full picture. Teammate messages render as color-coded cards. Subagent sessions are expandable inline with their own execution traces, metrics, and tool calls.
⚡ Command Palette & Cross-Session Search
Hit Cmd+K for a Spotlight-style command palette. Search across all sessions in a project — results show context snippets with highlighted keywords. Navigate directly to the exact message.
📊 Multi-Pane Layout
Open multiple sessions side-by-side. Drag-and-drop tabs between panes, split views, and compare sessions in parallel — like a proper IDE for your AI conversations.
