Hi! I'm looking for a tool that can export a single AI conversation (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) including both my messages and the assistant's responses. My ideal requirements are: Open source Runs entirely locally (no conversation data uploaded to external servers) Exports to Markdown (preferred), PDF, HTML, or JSON Preserves formatting (code blocks, tables, lists, etc.) Works with long conversations I'm mainly interested in something I can trust for archiving conversations without sending the content anywhere. Does anyone have recommendations? Even command-line tools or browser extensions are fine, as long as they're transparent about local processing. Thanks!

I am looking for the same too. It's a good value proposition. To build just a software.
Don't most ai's just give you back everything in markdown already? What if you just copy it?
I use this, from web browser. https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile But to html 😅 You can then convert it to PDF.
couldn't you literally just ask for a markdown file in your chat? sounds like a 'skill' that could be written for Claude or whatever, hardly needs a whole app
