Sidebar
The Klip Sidebar is your navigation hub for AI coding sessions. It displays workspaces and their associated sessions from Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini.
Workspace Organization
Sessions are grouped by workspace - the directory where the AI CLI was running when the session was created.
How Workspaces Are Detected
Klip uses VS Code's current working directory to determine the active workspace. When you open a folder in VS Code, Klip automatically filters to show sessions from that workspace.
Cross-Environment Sessions
The same project may have sessions from different environments:
- Windows:
E:\myproject - WSL:
/mnt/e/myproject
Klip recognizes these as the same workspace and groups them together. You may see multiple entries if you've worked on a project from both Windows and WSL.
Adding Workspaces
To discover sessions from additional locations:
- Open Dashboard > Settings > Paths & Discovery
- Add paths to
klip.additionalSessionPaths
Default Session Locations
Klip automatically scans these default locations:
| Agent | Path |
|---|---|
| Claude | ~/.claude/projects/ |
| Codex | ~/.codex/sessions/ |
| Gemini | ~/.gemini/tmp/ |
