parse-claude-logs

name	parse-claude-logs
description	Inspect Claude Code session logs (transcripts) for the current or another project. Use when the user explicitly asks to "look at the claude logs", "parse my session", "what did I ask claude", "show the transcript", "list claude sessions", or similar phrasings referencing Claude's own JSONL logs.

Run the script with --help to see all flags, then invoke it with the appropriate filters for the user's request.

Default behavior: prints user messages, assistant text, and tool calls from the most-recently-modified session in the current working directory.

Summarizing / classifying conversations

The first user message is usually a poor signal for what a session was actually about — preambles, /clear commands, and exploratory questions often precede the real task. To classify or summarize sessions, dispatch one or more Agent calls with subagent_type: "general-purpose" and model: "haiku" (summarization is cheap and high-volume — use Haiku, not the default).

Each agent should run the script itself (e.g. parse_claude_logs --session <UUID> --user --assistant) and report a 1-line summary of what was actually accomplished. Batch ~5-7 sessions per agent and run agents in parallel.
