A local Codex and Claude Code session manager for safely reviewing, backing up, and deleting old sessions from a browser UI or terminal CLI, or through MCP with ChatGPT or Claude.

AI coding tools can accumulate hundreds or thousands of local sessions. A session may leave behind transcripts, history, logs, checkpoints, and linked artifacts, so manual cleanup can easily miss related data.

Session Steward makes session cleanup safer by finding those records, showing what cleanup will affect, creating a local backup, removing supported data, and verifying the result afterward. Session Steward runs locally.
