AI ran a git clean on me and wiped out a bunch of untracked changes.
I just asked Claude Code to help recover it. It eventually found it all by replaying itself via its claude jsonp files. I never had to install or leave anything.
Claude code can certainly recover files from the files yes. In my case I had to recover 80 files stored in over 20+ maybe more sessions in the last month. To recover all those files in one context window without a deterministic script that keeps track of what has extracted and what not, seemed too challenging for me. Claude-file-recovery is able to index all available files and also able to extract files at a certain point in time, without having to rely on the LLM correctly parsing 20+ sessions which won’t fit in one context window.
