claude-migrate is a macOS CLI tool that copies Claude Desktop Code session sidebar records from one account/organization store to another, so sessions reappear after switching accounts. It's interesting for its careful safety model—dry-run by default, additive-only writes with atomic linking, manifest-based hash-checked undo, and guards against running while Desktop is active.

Target audience: Claude Desktop users, developers using AI coding assistants
