ChatGPT History Explorer
Hey HN,As a heavy ChatGPT user, I often want to explore my chat history, look for things I've already asked, keep favorite chats, and much more. ChatGPT doesn't even offer search capability (except in mobile version).So I decided to build one myself. It runs locally, so no sensitive data leaks. You only need to export your ChatGPT conversations, and put it in the `data` folder. Optionally setup OpenAI API key and it will create embeddings for semantic search.*Important* - it's not a desktop app (at least, not yet) - it's a python code with a browser interface that I've only tested on MacOS so far. Minimal dev skills are required to set it up.Current functionality:- Github-style activity graph and some other statistics- Browse and read your conversations- Quick filters by conversation title and time period- Search (semantic and simple "strict")- Add chats to favorites- Open conversations on the ChatGPT site to continue workingMy plans for new features: https://github.com/mirableio/chat-history/issuesHope it will be useful to people. Would love to hear your feedback.
Users appreciate the product, suggesting it be forked into production by OpenAI. They highlight its ability to improve user experience by solving the issue of losing threads. The tree-based conversation feature with drag-and-drop nodes is well-received. There is also a request for a similar GPT integration for Slack, with multi-conversation and search functionalities.
Users criticize the product for spending too much time hunting for old session labels, being too lazy to rename or tag conversations, and lacking a drag-and-drop feature for nodes.
