Claude Code v2.1.224 7 Aug 2026

Exported Claude archives no longer need every index file

You'll notice

Useful3 Signal3

Internals

Importing an exported Claude archive now only requires conversations.json; missing indexes are rebuilt.

What

Importing an exported .zip only requires conversations.json now. If the combined projects.json is missing, projects are read from the individual projects/*.json files instead, and the archive summary is rebuilt from users.json plus per-conversation message counts rather than being required in the file.

Evidence

export zip missing required entry

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
