Here's the problem with Claude Code: close your terminal and the session dies. Halfwhey's Claudraband fixes that. It's an open-source tmux wrapper that keeps sessions alive in the background. Detach. Come back tomorrow. Pick up exactly where you left off.
Persistence is just the start. An HTTP daemon exposes sessions for remote control. Anthropic Context Protocol (ACP) support lets you drive Claude Code from editors like Toad and Zed. The self-interrogation feature is the most interesting part: Claude can query its own past sessions and explain what it was thinking. A TypeScript library lets you script custom workflows around all of this.
Clever hack. Legally murky. AI coding agents like Claude Code have created a third software development paradigm: the Winchester Mystery House model. Code is now effectively free at 1,000+ lines per commit, but feedback and coordination costs haven't dropped. The result is idiosyncratic, sprawling tools that make sense only to their creators, while open source maintainers drown in agent-generated contributions. But the layer in between raises questions. The developer is upfront about boundaries: experimental, personal use, no pretensions of replacing the Claude SDK. On Hacker News, commenters pushed for support beyond Claude, asking about Gemini CLI and Codex integration. Fair ask, but it misses the point. Claudraband exists because Anthropic left a gap. Session persistence shouldn't require a third-party tool.
