Compaction can hide earlier work
Long coding sessions may compact old context. DataMoat watches supported local records so newly written lines can be saved quickly.
Claude work traces
Export and backup Claude Code work history before it disappears.
Claude sessions can contain valuable prompts, context, files, fixes, tool output, corrections, decisions, and locally written thinking blocks when present. DataMoat backs up supported Claude CLI and Claude Desktop local-agent records in encrypted on-device memory so the work remains reviewable, searchable, exportable, reusable, and ready for handoff after compaction, cleanup, or a machine move.
Why Claude work traces matter
The fix is in the process
Search the encrypted memory archive for a previous error, command, migration, prompt, correction, or design decision.
On-device by design
Your Claude work traces stay on your machine. DataMoat does not upload transcripts, attachments, or memory encryption keys to a DataMoat cloud service.
Install path
Mac users should start with the signed macOS DMG. Linux users can use source install. Remote no-screen setup is available when capture needs to begin before the protected desktop is available.
