Import past local Claude Code sessions into Honcho memory (backfill history).
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Honcho Import
Backfill the user's existing local Claude Code session transcripts into Honcho so
past work becomes apart of Honcho's memory. It uploads real conversation content, so it
always previews first and requires explicit confirmation.
Transcripts live at `~/.claude/projects/<cwd-as-dashes>/<session-uuid>.jsonl`. The
importer reconstructs each conversation, names sessions using the user's configured
`sessionStrategy`, and uploads with the original message timestamps into the user's
configured workspace.
## Prerequisite
Honcho must already be configured (`HONCHO_API_KEY` set or `~/.honcho/config.json`
present). If not, tell the user to run `/honcho:setup` first and stop here.
## Optional arguments
The user may specify scope in natural language; translate it to flags:
- window → `--days N` (default 30)
- a specific workspace → `--workspace NAME` (default: their configured workspace)
## Steps
### 1. Preview (safe — no upload)
Run the importer in dry-run mode and show the user the plan:
```bash
bun run "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/src/skills/backfill-runner.ts" --dry-run
```
If `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` isn't set, the plugin lives here (find the version

How to install
mdr add plastic-labs/claude-honcho/import@sha256:406890310db1e28fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260723.eeaf5dd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
