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
Session logs are stored as Markdown files within a .ai-cli-logs directory.
