01 Browser to browser

Carry the useful context. Leave the transcript behind.

An encrypted, workspace-scoped index for the tasks, handoff notes, terminal links, PRs, and test runs that need to survive your next browser.

02 The route

Three stops. No cloud account.

Keep the operational index around the work—not another proprietary copy of the conversation.

  1. 01

    Pack what matters

    Add the next task, a concise handoff note, or the current terminal, PR, test, or docs URL. Page content is never read.

  2. 02

    Seal it locally

    Your passphrase derives an AES key in the browser. The journal stored on disk is ciphertext; the key is not persisted.

  3. 03

    Open the next stop

    Import the encrypted JSON or pull it from the optional workspace sidecar. Merge newer entries without losing local work.

03 What stays behind

A small index, deliberately.

Porter is not a chat exporter, browser-history scraper, or hosted IDE. It stores only the notes and links you explicitly add.
