Show HN: AI-CLI-Log – Seamlessly Log Your AI CLI Conversations to Markdown

Hey HN, I've developed ai-cli-log, a command-line utility designed to capture and log interactive terminal sessions. Its primary purpose is to provide a clean, accurate record of CLI interactions, which I found particularly useful when working with AI models or other interactive command-line tools. The tool functions by wrapping your chosen command. It leverages node-pty for pseudo-terminal emulation and @xterm/headless to process ANSI escape codes. This approach ensures that the captured output accurately reflects the final, rendered state of the terminal screen, including user input and any dynamic changes. The complete session is then saved as a Markdown file. Usage is simple: Just prefix the command you want to log with ai-cli-log. For example: ai-cli-log gemini ai-cli-log claude ai-cli-log my-custom-cli S

ession logs are stored as Markdown files within a .ai-cli-logs directory. You can find the project on GitHub: https://github.com/alingse/ai-cli-log Feedback and contributions are welcome.
