Canopy

A browser-based viewer for Claude conversation trees, showing all branches and alternate responses in three views: tree, linear, and minimap.

Live Demo

View the demo

Features

  • Tree View -- hierarchical display showing branch points and all paths through the conversation
  • Linear View -- flat, chat-style reading of any single branch with tab switching
  • Minimap View -- bird's-eye overview of the entire conversation tree with hover tooltips
  • Dark theme optimized for readability
  • Highlights active leaf path and branch points
  • Expand/collapse individual messages or all at once
  • Load your own exported JSON to explore any conversation

Usage

Viewing conversations

  1. Visit the live demo or open index.html locally
  2. The demo conversation loads automatically
  3. Click Load JSON in the toolbar to view your own exported conversation

Extracting conversations from claude.ai

  1. Open claude.ai and navigate to the conversation you want to export
  2. Open your browser's DevTools console (F12 or Cmd+Shift+J)
  3. Paste the contents of script.js into the console and press Enter
  4. The script fetches the full conversation tree (including all branches) and downloads it as a JSON file
  5. Load the downloaded JSON into the viewer

How it works

Claude conversations are trees, not linear threads. When you edit a message or regenerate a response, Claude creates a new branch rather than overwriting the old one. The standard Claude UI only shows one path at a time. This viewer renders the entire tree so you can see all branches and alternate responses.
