claude-bookmarks
Vim-style marks, a reading position, and a numbered prompt history, inside a Claude Code conversation

A Claude Code plugin that lets you mark a line of a conversation with a letter and jump back to it from anywhere, keep your place while you scroll, browse every prompt you have typed, and let Claude cite earlier places as links you can click. It is a mod, meaning it draws inside Claude Code's terminal app, with nothing else to install. In Claude Code's official directory the plugin is called bookmarks (published by DazzleML), whereas the Github repository here is claude-bookmarks. (It is a terminal plugin, not a browser extension -- for navigating the claude.ai website, AI Chat Nav does a similar job).

The Problem

A long Claude Code conversation is hard to move around in. The answer you need is three hundred messages up, the prompt that started this line of work is somewhere above that, and after you scroll up to check something, finding your way back down to where you were reading is an exercise in scrolling-squinting-and-praying. Claude Code can already jump to the top and the bottom of the conversation, and its transcript view can search, but it has no way to say "remember this spot" and come back to it.

claude-bookmarks gives you named spots in the conversation. This includes tagged letters you set on any line (essentially Vim marks), a reading position you can swap to and back from, and a numbered list of every prompt you have typed, so "go back to where I asked about the cache" is two keystrokes instead of a text safari.

Pre-alpha (v0.3.x). claude-bookmarks is part of my daily active workflow. I've been dogfooding since Claude Code 2.1.288 (now at 2.1.295) on Win11 using Windows Terminal, fullscreen, and at different term-sizes. The mod for…
