RFC: Web viewer for workstreams / memory / notes (separate package)

[IlyaGorsky]

Idea

A read-only web viewer for everything memory-toolkit writes to disk:

• Workstreams — list, handoffs, last session per workstream
• Memory — search/filter across feedback/, decisions/, reference/, notes/
• Notes timeline — daily notes with WATCH: / DOC: / COMMIT: markers
• Sessions — index from sessions.jsonl, click into transcripts

Since everything is markdown on the local filesystem with predictable structure (MEMORY.md, workstreams.json, frontmatter), a viewer is a pure parse-and-render job.

Scope

• Separate package — no coupling with plugin runtime, no new dependencies in the plugin itself
• Read-only — no edits, no writes. Source of truth stays in markdown files
• Static site — builds locally, optionally publishes to GitHub Pages
• Local-first — reads from ~/.claude/projects/*/memory/, no server, no cloud

Non-goals

• Not a replacement for reading markdown directly
• Not an editor — edits happen via /memory, /park, manual edit
• Not a team / collaboration tool — memory stays per-user

Open questions

1. Static build (vite + markdown renderer) vs local Electron app?
2. How to handle multiple projects — one viewer per project, or project switcher?
3. Session transcripts viewer — in-scope or separate RFC?
4. Any privacy considerations if published to GH Pages (most memory is local-only, but notes may leak context)?

How to react

• 👍 "I'd use this" — helps gauge demand before investing
• 💬 Comment with your use case — what would you browse most often? Workstreams? Notes? Search?
• 🔨 If you want to prototype — please flag before starting so we can align on scope

Triggered by user feedback that visualization would be a killer feature. Parking here as RFC before building anything.
