Can I use this with Obsidian?

Yes, it includes a dedicated documenter skill and MCP server to export your sessions as structured notes directly into your Obsidian vault.

How do I link git commits to my sessions?

Chronicle automatically links any git commits made within a 30-minute window of an active session to that specific session record.

Does Chronicle automatically track all my Claude sessions?

No, sessions must be started explicitly using the 'chronicle start claude' command to ensure recording and tracking begin.

Where is my session data stored?

All data is stored locally on your machine in the ~/.ai-session/ directory, providing full privacy and ownership of your transcripts.

How does it handle very long coding sessions?

It utilizes a rolling, chunked summarization method (10,000 lines per chunk) that can process massive sessions without hitting AI context limits.
