Cowork Local Viewer

since 2026 · ongoing

A read-only, offline page that archives the local Cowork sessions of the Claude desktop app — the conversation rebuilt from the raw log, linked to its project, exported as a complete ZIP.

https://github.com/7hUd41/archive-cowork-conv-claude-desktop (github.com)

The desktop app keeps its Cowork sessions on disk, as a raw audit log. Drop a session folder on the page: it rebuilds the conversation, attaches the images you sent, links the session to its project, and shows the same preview as /endeavor/code/archive-cowork-conv-claude-web/.

It also builds an index of every session — id, title, project, dates — as a spreadsheet and as Markdown, and reopens the archives you exported before. The page never lists your disk: it only reads what you drop on it.

Sessions dropped on the page, each with its project, a filter and the index button

A session opened: time zone, summary, then the conversation with its image re-attached

(Synthetic sessions from the tests, not a real conversation.)
