AIFIRST How I got my Mac to read my Claude Code chats at night to extend token usage
The brief
A developer built a system on macOS that has Claude's chat transcripts read aloud at night using the OS text-to-speech engine, allowing passive review without consuming Claude tokens for re-reads.
Key points
- The approach recovered roughly a third of the author's weekly quota that had been going to reading files Claude had already seen.
- The script watches the local Claude Code transcript directory and is shared on GitHub.
