Feature request: date range filter for /insights
Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened May 13, 2026 by richardsaville Closed May 16, 2026
Summary
The /insights command currently analyses all available sessions with no way to scope the analysis to a specific time period. A date range filter would allow users to focus on recent usage patterns and track improvement over time.
Proposed solution
Add --since and/or --until flags to /insights:
/insights --since 30d # last 30 days
/insights --since 2026-04-01 # since a specific date
/insights --since 7d --until 2026-05-01 # specific window
Why this is useful
- Track improvement over time — after changing CLAUDE.md rules or adding hooks, you want to see whether friction events decreased in just the recent sessions, not diluted across months of historical data
- Compare periods — run insights for last month vs. this month to see trends
- Reduce noise — older sessions may reflect a different codebase, team, or workflow that's no longer relevant
Current workaround
None — the only option would be manually deleting older session files from ~/.claude/usage-data/facets/, which is destructive.
