What Aesop Agentic Does

Aesop discovers persisted histories on your computer, imports account exports, and retains raw artifacts alongside readable Markdown. It keeps content-addressed revisions of immutable session files and verified latest snapshots of large mutable databases. Collection reads source stores without changing them.

Capability	What You Can Do
Collect	Archive local sessions from Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Pi, and other supported tools.
Import	Retain official exports from ChatGPT, Claude, and other providers, including their original files.
Read	Search and browse supported transcripts in the browser interface or open their Markdown files.
Back Up	Mirror your archive to a local directory, an rclone destination, or a Git LFS repository.
Verify	Check stored checksums and test a restore before you need one.
Schedule	On macOS, install a branded background service and configure native notifications.

Start With a Worked Example

• Archive coding sessions from Codex and Claude Code without configuring browser access.
• Import an account export and distinguish preserved files from readable conversations.
• Verify and restore a backup in a separate directory.

Coverage Is Explicit

An archived file is not always a readable conversation. Aesop reports missing permissions, unknown formats, incomplete exports, and unavailable history as coverage limits. It cannot recover deleted history or conversations that a provider never saved. Browser collection is optional and always best-effort.

The source coverage reference describes what each adapter can preserve and decode. Aesop is macOS-first; the Python package includes the CLI, terminal dashboard, and browser interface. The native desktop component is built separately from the same repository.
