alt Hacker NewsHave anyone found good techniques to get a session out of Claude Code, so that I can point another tool at it and pick up there? This always seems to happen at the worst possible time, after having spent an hour getting deep into something – half finished edits across files, subagents running, etc.

Copy-pasting previous plain-text conversation + a snippet of "inspect the current git changes, and resume where you left of" tends to do the trick, at least in Codex, worked with moving from CC, Gemini and a bunch of others.
I’ve built a browser cli for that.
I created a porting skill, which worked fine for this session. Maybe it's useful for others: https://gist.github.com/jakobloekke/1d036e4b2a35fa5e1b309a23...
Maybe the /export command is what you're looking for.
'Export the current conversation to a file or clipboard'
If you use superpowers and "brainstorm" in your prompt, you will get a spec document that other AI can use. They can figure out what was done and continue from there.
Honest suggestion - ask the agent to figure a compat shim out, the files are jsonl stored at your ~/.claude/sessions you can most likely just reshape it to work on OpenCode or similar, or have a different Claude Code config that points to OpenRouter or other API style endpoint CC supports and then you can swap accounts and it should still work!
