First sync
After running confab setup, the CLI watches your local Claude Code and Codex session transcripts and streams them to your backend in real time as each session progresses.
What gets uploaded
Section titled “What gets uploaded”- The full session transcript (JSONL), streamed chunk by chunk as the session runs.
- Git metadata captured at session start (repo URL, branch, remotes).
- Per-message token counts and model identifiers.
What does not get uploaded
Section titled “What does not get uploaded”- Any files on disk that weren’t shared with the agent.
- Environment variables or secrets from your shell.
- Anything outside the session transcript file.
Verifying
Section titled “Verifying”Open your Confabulous dashboard — your active session should appear within a few seconds of starting, and continue to update as new turns happen. The dashboard URL depends on how Confabulous was deployed for you: the managed instance at confabulous.dev, your team’s self-hosted URL, or — when you’re prototyping the stack on your own laptop — http://localhost:8080.
