Nanoclaw Repl
A session-aware REPL built on top of `claude -p` that stores everything in markdown files instead of a database. The zero-dependency architecture is deliberate and actually matters here since it runs as a Node script without external runtime deps. You get model switching, session branching, and cross-session search, all persisted to markdown that you can read and edit directly. The workflow is meant for iterative development where you might want to branch before trying something risky or compact your history after hitting a milestone. It's opinionated about staying local and deterministic, which makes sense for a REPL you're extending yourself. If you're already using Claude API and want conversation persistence without standing up infrastructure, this does that.
