ShardStitch
Recover AI coding sessions after they die — a local-first continuation packet built from disk truth.
ShardStitch is a local-first developer tool that rebuilds AI coding session state after a session dies, hits a rate limit, overflows context, or needs to switch tools. It reads git diff, changed files, recent commits, dependency graphs, and project memory from disk — without needing the old AI session to still be alive — and packages everything into a verified continuation packet. The packet is formatted natively for 20+ AI coding tools (Claude, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, Aider, Roo Code, Devin/Windsurf, and more) so the next session starts already caught up. It runs 100% on-device with zero telemetry.

Problem it solves
AI coding sessions die mid-task due to context overflow, rate limits, tool crashes, or forced tool switches — and the next session starts blind, losing decisions, failed attempts, partial refactors, and working intent that only existed in the dead chat.
Why people use it
ShardStitch reads what actually survived on disk (git diff, changed files, commits, dependency graph, project memory) and assembles a compact, verified continuation packet — separating confirmed facts from inferred next steps — so the next AI tool picks up exactly where work stopped, in the format that tool expects.
Built for
Software developers using AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, Aider, etc.) who lose working state when sessions die or hit limits
Also: Indie developers and solo founders with long-running AI-assisted projects, Developer teams handing off tasks between engineers or AI tools, Developers using local LLMs (Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM) prone to crashes
What makes it different
- Reads disk, not the dead AI — works after the session is completely gone, rate-limited, or untrusted
- 20+ native per-agent formats (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, GEMINI.md, .cursorrules, clipboard prompt, etc.) so each target tool gets a handoff shaped for how it reads context
- 100% local, zero telemetry — no code or project state sent to ShardStitch servers; license validation is the only network call
- Separates verified disk-truth facts from inferred next steps, preventing overconfident summaries from misleading the next AI
- 39 MCP tools callable from Claude Code, Cursor, and Devin for in-session scan, recall, and handoff; 94% token reduction via on-device Hivy context trimming
