Field notes
The app reads existing keychain items and auth files, and prices session logs stored on the Mac; the page says provider requests go directly from the Mac and sync stays in private iCloud. Its Memory window covers global and per-project files for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and Grok, with read, edit, create, and delete controls. The published speed comparison uses a 27 GB session-log corpus and reports lower launch, refresh, and memory figures than OpenUsage.
