What is fixing-claude-export-conversations?

A repair tool for Claude Code conversation exports stored as text files. It restores paragraphs, tables, file paths, and tool calls that were split across lines at fixed widths.

Fixing exported Claude Code conversations, checking the repaired file with automated tests, and spot-checking tables, non-Latin text, and tool results.

Hard-wrapped exports are difficult to read and can lose their original structure; the repair process makes them usable again and checks the result.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00109	$0.01161
Opus 5.5	$0.00044	$0.00464
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00022	$0.00232
Haiku 4.5	$0.00011	$0.00116

Security

Grade A, and why

fixing-claude-export-conversations scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/fix-claude-export.py, scripts/validate-claude-export-fix.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Fixing Claude Code Export Conversations

Reconstruct broken line wrapping in Claude Code exported .txt files.

Quick Start

# Fix and show stats
uv run <skill-path>/scripts/fix-claude-export.py <export.txt> --stats

# Custom output
uv run <skill-path>/scripts/fix-claude-export.py <export.txt> -o fixed.txt

# Validate the result (per-check PASS/FAIL with evidence; all must pass)
uv run <skill-path>/scripts/validate-claude-export-fix.py <export.txt> fixed.txt

Replace <skill-path> with the resolved path to this skill's directory. Find it with:

find ~/.claude -path "*/fixing-claude-export-conversations/scripts" -type d 2>/dev/null

Workflow

Copy this checklist and track progress:

- [ ] Step 1: Locate the exported .txt file
- [ ] Step 2: Run fix script with --stats
- [ ] Step 3: Run validation suite
- [ ] Step 4: Spot-check output (tables, CJK paragraphs, tool results)
- [ ] Step 5: Deliver fixed file to user

Step 1: Locate the file. Claude Code exports use the naming pattern YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS-<slug>.txt.

Step 2: Run the fix script.

uv run <skill-path>/scripts/fix-claude-export.py <input.txt> -o <output.txt> --stats

Review the stats output — typical results: 20-25% line reduction, 80+ table borders fixed, 160+ table cells fixed.

Step 3: Run the validation suite.

uv run <skill-path>/scripts/validate-claude-export-fix.py <input.txt> <output.txt>

All checks must pass. If any fail, investigate before delivering. Use --verbose for full details on passing checks too.

Step 4: Spot-check. Open the output and verify:

Tables have intact borders (box-drawing characters on single lines)
CJK/English mixed text has pangu spacing (Portal 都需要, not Portal都需要)
Tool result blocks (⎿) have complete content on joined lines
Diff output within tool results has each line number on its own line

Step 5: Deliver the fixed file to the user.

What Gets Fixed

The script handles 10 content types using a state-machine with next-line look-ahead:

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
