So what is it?

This tool takes the conversation history saved by Claude Code, a command-line AI coding assistant, and turns it into a browsable, shareable knowledge base. Claude Code stores past sessions in a folder called ~/.claude on your computer. Over time those sessions accumulate research, explanations, and decisions that are hard to find or reuse. CC-Wiki reads those files and generates a website using a publishing tool called Quartz, which produces an interconnected, wiki-style site you can browse locally or share with others. The author built this for their own use because they were doing a lot of deep research through Claude Code sessions, both personal and professional, and found it difficult to share those insights or return to them in future sessions. The result is described as an arXiv-like knowledge base, meaning it aims to be organized and rigorous rather than informal. Installation is a one-line curl command that runs an install script. After that, you can invoke the tool from inside any Claude Code session by typing /cc-wiki. It requires macOS or Linux, Claude Code, Python 3.9 or newer (using only the standard library, so no extra packages to install), and Node 22 or newer for the Quartz site generator. The project is MIT licensed and the README notes it is a personal tool released publicly because it may be useful to others. Issues and pull requests are welcome, though the author makes no promises about response time.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
I have a ~/.claude folder full of Claude Code sessions. Walk me through installing cc-wiki and generating a browsable Quartz website from those sessions.
Prompt 2
How do I invoke /cc-wiki inside a Claude Code session and where does the generated site get written so I can open it in a browser?
Prompt 3
I want to host my cc-wiki output publicly. What files does cc-wiki generate and how do I deploy the Quartz site to GitHub Pages or Netlify?
