Session Kit

Close the terminal windows, not the AI coding sessions. One number takes you back in.

Every Claude Code and Codex session in one menu: named, numbered, colour-coded. Open, close, and jump to whichever needs you.

The sessions keep running on the host whether or not you are watching them.

  kit → see what needs you → type its number → back in the session.

I kept opening window after window just to find the session that had asked me something.

Session Kit is the small home screen I wanted for that. I use it every day, on a local machine and over SSH to the host where the work actually runs.

It is a passion project. There is no company behind it, no paid tier, and nothing to buy. It is MIT licensed, it collects nothing, and it talks to no server of mine. I published it because it fixed a problem I hit every single day, and if you hit the same one, it will probably fix yours.
