Show HN: Ccgs – Collaborative Claude Code sessions, stored in Git branches

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 16:04:45 +0000

My team uses Claude Code daily, and the sessions have become some of the most useful artifacts we produce. But they're trapped in ~/.claude/projects/ on whichever laptop they happened on. There's no good way to hand a colleague "the session where I untangled the migration" so they can claude --resume it and keep going from where I left off. Enter ccgs: Share Claude Code sessions through an orphan branch (@ccgs/) in your existing repo's remote

- Session files carry the author's absolute paths. On pull, ccgs rewrites the working dir back to your path so resume actually works — surgically editing only the structural cwd field, not a blind find-and-replace that would happily corrupt the transcript.

- Everything goes through git plumbing (hash-object/commit-tree/update-ref) against a throwaway index. It never touches your working tree, index, or current branch, and it's fine with a dirty tree. It will not git checkout something behind your back.

To try it without installing: `npx claude-git-sessions`. This also incidentally allows you to move a directory and carry the claude code transcripts with it (just push first, then move the directory, then pull)

IMPORTANT CAVEAT: Unless you have a very good security hygiene, your Claude Code sessions are likely full of sensitive information such as environment secrets. Use with caution and avoid using on public repositories. Branches used by ccgs are prefixed by `@ccgs/` so you can easily filter them out.

This project was written by and with Claude Code. This Show HN was not.

scrollaway — Sat, 06 Jun 2026 08:53:22 +0000

ChatGPT, basically within 48 hours of its release.

While people were pointing out on Twitter how it couldn't do math right, I was turning arbitrary English instructions into JSON and brainstorming with my colleagues how we could have layers of verification in the stack. This felt different. We had all played with AI dungeon but suddenly, fully generalized systems were within reach.

A month later, we renamed our company and shifted its full focus on AI R&D. (https://ingram.tech/)

You seem to not understand that a search engine and a VPN don't have the same audience, and certainly not the same needs for focus.

It's ok, we all have our flaws.

Agreed. The noise in tech circles often gets founders to conflate ten different things into a product that no longer makes sense. “Eu made alternative to Kagi”? Cool, we need European search engines, sign me up. “Privacy is such a priority we’re looking to accept cash by mail”? Okay, you’re never gonna build a serious competitor, never mind.

> why can’t Mythos just fix all these issues itself if it’s so smart. And test them to make sure they work?

“Why”: because you didn’t ask it. It’s not its job in this case.

You don’t hire an accountant and tell them “why can’t you fix my cash-flow problems and make me money if you’re so smart”

Being charitable to Larry Ellison is one of those things one cannot physically do, like being entertaining to a dead whale.

Europe.

We fund science, research and we have accelerated programs for researchers affected by these kinds of things.

If you're interested, email me (see profile). I have been helping Americans emigrate to Europe (for free) for several years.

The cost improvements reached you, you just don't see them in the table quality.

You see them in the fact that every single home you'll visit to buy or rent has a fully equipped kitchen including a fridge, oven, likely a microwave, dishwasher and even a washing machine (which alone has a huge economic impact: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gvsz_vc7B0)

You see it in the fact that your home is safer from fires than it ever has been. That hot water is a cheap passive thing you don't even think about, rather than something you have to plan for. That a TV is a nice add-on to it all, rather than a huge deal to get.

Your grandparents' table was more expensive because they had less things, and the massive wood table that they saved months for was what was kept and stood the test of time for you to see today. Because let's not forget, this is also what furnishing 100 years ago can look like:

scrollaway — Mon, 25 May 2026 07:59:45 +0000

Agreed; and more generally, Microsoft's online services in general are terrible. Their login system is a mess, their UX is awful... our company is a microsoft partner but there's like 27 different ways to be one, with a bunch of different accounts, forms and systems for it. Azure UX is atrocious. And this nonsense spills into every single enterprise product they offer too (how many people complain about Teams?).

Here in Belgium, 80% of enterprise accounts use MS over Google and I genuinely don't get why. (Without getting into the fiasco of not really having an EU alternative to either of those)

I guess I thought this should be obvious to everyone but, looking at code and finding exploits is completely different from .. writing exploits.

For one thing exploits often require completely different parts of the code to chain together. Sometimes parts of code the LLM itself isn’t writing.

And, LLMs are ALREADY trained negatively against writing buggy or exploitable code.

The way it'll play out is, if nothing happens denialists will claim "nothing has happened YET!", and if anything happens, those same people will claim "you see, writing AI code is a terrible idea!".

People write code differently, AI models write code differently, AI systems write code differently, companies create systems that write AI-written code differently, etc.

The system that wrote Bun bears no relationship to the system that writes OP's code.

Making such absolute statements about AI-written code is as dumb as making absolute statements about human-written code on the basis that it's "human-written".

That’s like saying “the aftermath of Hiroshima will provide strong evidence either for or against nuclear power scientists”.

It’s irrelevant and unrelated.

I find funny the trend of software engineers being shocked at the idea that someone would issue a set of instructions to a coder and not look at the code, or only glance at it.

How do you think the world has worked for the past thirty years? AI has just caught up with human skill is all.

Other people aren’t your slaves. You don’t get to demand they respond immediately, and this Reddit-like mindset needs to die. HN is a place where we often can actually get devs from companies responding directly and listening to feedback, and this hostility is looked at by all the other devs from those similar companies and remembered when it’ll be their turn.

Stop making HN a worse place for everyone by being unnecessarily hostile. (and this comment is only mildly directed at you but rather at a bunch of people in this thread)

Don’t be so optimistic about your ability to “process information healthily”. You are more of a slave to your instincts than you think and can’t always know whether you’re actually doing a good job at this— literally, it’s not possible to faithfully introspectively this.
