Hey Product Hunt! š
I'm Leo. I built buildarc because I kept failing at the simplest part of building in public ā the public part.
Here's what happened: I spent 6 weeks building a SaaS with Claude Code. 45 sessions. Hundreds of decisions, pivots, and the occasional emotional meltdown. When the project wound down and I tried to write about what I'd built, I opened a blank editor and... nothing.
The entire story ā every decision, every pivot, the moment I mass-deleted everything and started over ā was buried in .jsonl files inside .claude/projects/ that I would never voluntarily reopen.
So I built a CLI to recover it.
What buildarc does:
- npx buildarc ā one command, auto-detects your project
- Parses all your Claude Code sessions at once (not just one ā all of them)
- Extracts the moments that matter: decisions, pivots, emotions, breakthroughs
- Scrubs API keys and secrets automatically
- Outputs ready-to-post content: X threads, LinkedIn posts, build journals
What makes it different from pasting into ChatGPT:
Try processing 50 sessions and hundreds of MB of .jsonl files in ChatGPT. buildarc does it in seconds and formats for the platform you're posting to.
The boring-but-important stuff:
- Zero dependencies (pure Node.js built-ins)
- Everything runs locally ā no data transmitted, no telemetry
- Works retroactively on sessions that already happened
- Free forever. MIT licensed.
This is my first Product Hunt launch in 5 years. What would make you actually use this? What formats or platforms am I missing?
