Hey Product Hunt 👋 Two launches ago I put Crew here (little pixel monsters for your Claude Code agents, #7 of the day, thank you), then Notchling. Chit is the third, and it is the one I actually built for myself first. The problem: you run Claude Code all day, you genuinely get a lot done, and by 6pm you cannot remember any of it. Standup tomorrow. Timesheet on Friday. Chit reads the transcripts Claude Code already writes to ~/.claude/projects and prints the day back as a receipt, grouped by project. One click copies it as plain bullets, already phrased the way a task sheet wants them. ▪ It prints what you did, not what you typed. Claude Code names most sessions itself; where it has not, Chit names the line after the files you touched. Your prompts never appear anywhere. ▪ Grouped by project, busiest first. Agent worktrees fold back into their parent instead of showing up as strangers. ▪ Copy the whole day, or one project. Plain text, or Markdown for the places that render it. ▪ It is also a CLI: chit --today, --date=, --from= --to=, --markdown. Pipe it into whatever eats your timesheets. ▪ Menu bar only, no Dock icon. ⌥⌃⌘C shows and hides it. On privacy, which I want to be concrete about rather than reassuring: ▪ There is no network code in the binary. Not a policy, a property: $ cd Chit.app/Contents/MacOS $ nm -u Chit | grep -c URLSession → 0 $ otool -L Chit | grep -c CFNetwork → 0 ▪ No account, no API key, no telemetry. ▪ Lines show file names, never paths. A path says who you are and who you work for; audit.js does not. ▪ You can hide whole projects. Honest limit: that hides that project's lines, it cannot hide a sentence you typed about that work inside a different project. I am not selling it as if it could. Honest notes: ▪ macOS 13+, Apple Silicon and Intel, 777 KB. ▪ Not notarised yet, so a browser download gets flagged once. The curl line on the site installs with no warning and the SHA-256 is published next to it. ▪ Today's receipt is free and stays free, and it is the half I use every morning. $12 once adds past days, the week and month statements, and the dashboard. The free tier is not a demo. ▪ An earlier version of this needed Hammerspoon and Python 3. That is gone. It is one file you double click. Built in Swift, solo, with Claude Code. Happy to answer anything. What else should a receipt for your working day have on it?

@ravindra_sisodia1 This looks real cool. how big is the file it make for the day?

This is neat! Since there are no network calls, I'm guessing the session titles come from Claude Code's own records and Chit just parses them? Or is there some model call hidden in there, and if so, what drives it? I want to build something on a similar mechanism for a different purpose.

@matthew_gladyshev You've got it — no model call anywhere, and no network code in the binary at all. Claude Code writes its own aiTitle for most sessions into the transcript JSONL, and Chit just reads it.

When a session has no title, Chit falls back through what it actually did: the description Claude Code writes for each Bash call, then files changed, then files read. It never uses your prompts for display.

If you're building on the same data: it's line-delimited JSON, and aiTitle, the Bash description and the file paths in Edit/Write inputs carry most of the signal. Do a plain substring search on each line before you JSON-decode it — that's most of why Chit gets through a few GB of transcripts in well under a second.

is it only for Mac? or Windows too?

@luca_ardito Mac only for now (macOS 13+, Apple Silicon and Intel). No Windows version planned right now — Chit reads Claude Code's local transcript format directly, so a Windows port isn't a huge lift if there's demand, just haven't built it.

Any chance this can run on codex too?

@alexcheeseman1 Not today — Chit reads Claude Code's transcript format specifically. Codex keeps its own session logs in a different shape, so it would be a second reader rather than a setting. The engine is basically a fast parser, so it's very doable. Would you use it alongside Claude Code, or instead of it?

This is just great. I’m way out of my league here….learning to code in Python, learning terminal, all the things….and most of it is done with the help of Claude Code at the command line or through VS code….i work though the day (roofing contractor) put the kids to bed and get to work on whatever the current assignment is in CS50P (free Harvard Python). Working 10-2am, falling asleep and it’s all gone the next morning😂. Really excited to see if this prompts recall….thank you for the cool product and I love your branding!

@rewoodworks This genuinely made my day, thank you. Good luck with CS50P — the fact you're shipping real code at 1am after roofing all day is the whole reason I wanted a receipt that remembers for you.
