README.md
An LM Studio plugin that automatically exports your chat conversations to .md (Markdown) files — perfect for building a searchable archive, feeding into RAG pipelines, or just keeping a tidy record of your LLM chats.
The plugin quietly watches your conversations in the background. Every time the total message count hits a threshold (default: 10 messages), it writes the entire chat to a Markdown file in a folder you choose.
Install directly from the LM Studio Hub:
Or install via the CLI:
.md files will be saved (e.g. D:\My Chat Exports)That's it! Start chatting and your conversations will be exported automatically.
Files are named with a sortable date prefix and a unique chat fingerprint:
Sorting by filename = chronological order. The fingerprint is derived from the first message in each chat, so the same conversation always maps to the same file.
Each exported file looks like:
Clone and run in dev mode:
The dev server watches for code changes and hot-reloads the plugin automatically.
