Install ReclaimLLM
Set up RCLM and start capturing sessions.
Get started
Choose the capture method that fits how you work. You can use all four at once — they produce the same normalized session record.

Before you start
You need a free RCLM account and an API key. Create your account, then find your API key in Settings → API Keys.
The recommended setup for coding agents. Install the package, run one installer, and ReclaimLLM handles browser login, hook registration, MCP setup, safe defaults, and updates automatically.
# Automated install for macOS & Linux
$ curl -fsSL https://reclaimllm.com/install.sh | bash
✓ ReclaimLLM installed to ~/.local/bin
✓ Initializing hooks for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Antigravity...
Installs rclm in an isolated environment, adds binaries to PATH, and initializes hooks with zero manual setup.
What happens during install:
ReclaimLLM handles browser authentication when needed, writes credentials to ~/.reclaimllm/config.json, registers native hooks for supported tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Antigravity), syncs DLP redaction rules, and enables automatic background updates.
Need custom configuration or flags?
For provider-only installs, project-local hooks, include/exclude folders, custom handoff thresholds, and proxy flags, see the Quickstart Documentation →
Capture conversations from ChatGPT, Claude.ai, and Gemini directly in the browser. Works with your existing accounts — no API keys or extra configuration required. Just install and go.
The extension is awaiting Chrome Web Store review. In the meantime, you can install it manually in developer mode using the steps below — it takes under a minute.
Download the extension
↓ Download reclaimllm-extension.zipUnzip the file after downloading — you'll need the extracted folder in the next step.
Enable Developer mode in Chrome
Open chrome://extensions in your browser. Toggle Developer mode on using the switch in the top-right corner of the page.
Load the extension
Click Load unpacked and select the folder you unzipped in step 1. The ReclaimLLM icon will appear in your Chrome toolbar.
Sign in with your RCLM account
Click the ReclaimLLM icon in your toolbar and sign in with the same GitHub or Google account you use for your RCLM account. Capturing starts automatically once you're signed in.
A local proxy that sits between your code and LLM providers. Every request and response is recorded — Anthropic, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, and Gemini. No code changes required; just point your environment variables at it.
The local proxy is experimental. Expect rough edges — please report any issues you run into.
Install the package
$ pip install rclm
# or with proxy support (LiteLLM)
$ pip install 'rclm[proxy]'
Start the proxy
$ export RECLAIMLLM_API_KEY=rclm_your_key_here
$ rclm-proxy
✓ ReclaimLLM proxy listening on :9800
✓ Forwarding to https://api.anthropic.com
Point your app at the proxy
# Anthropic
$ export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:9800
─────────────────────────────────────────────────
# OpenAI
$ export OPENAI_BASE_URL=http://localhost:9800
Your existing API keys stay in place — the proxy forwards them transparently.
Keep calling OpenAI or Anthropic directly. OpenTelemetry sends a copy of the emitted trace to ReclaimLLM without changing your provider endpoint or storing provider credentials.
Testing another organization
The API key determines the user, organization, team, and data region. Do not send an organization ID in telemetry; it is intentionally ignored for authorization.
