jnchen

jnchen is an independent software publisher distributing its work through GitHub, with a catalog currently centered on a single desktop utility called Code Déjà Vu. The product addresses a growing need among developers who work with AI-assisted coding tools: as command-line assistants such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, and OpenCode generate sessions, instructions, and configuration files on the local machine, this material tends to become scattered across hidden directories and difficult to revisit. Code Déjà Vu functions as a local desktop tool that consolidates these artifacts into one unified browsing and management interface, allowing users to review past conversations, recover previously issued prompts or instructions, and inspect configuration data left behind by each supported agent. Typical use cases include retracing the steps of an earlier coding session, reusing effective prompts across projects, auditing what an AI tool has stored on disk, and maintaining a clearer record of machine-assisted development work. Because the tool operates locally, it fits workflows where privacy and offline access to development history matter, and it reflects a broader category of software concerned with developer productivity, session archival, and the management of AI tooling on personal workstations. As a publisher, jnchen occupies the niche of small, focused open-source utilities rather than large commercial suites, and its current portfolio illustrates how individual developers respond to emerging gaps in the tooling ecosystem—in this case, the lack of a central place to view and organize the byproducts of multiple AI coding assistants that would otherwise remain fragmented across the filesystem.
