I built a local way to export, search and continue chats from OpenRouter, LM Studio and AI Studio with llama.cpp or OpenRouter
A developer released ThreadShelf, an open-source tool that bulk exports chats from OpenRouter, LM Studio, and Google AI Studio into one local archive with semantic and exact search. It supports continuing old chats via llama.cpp or OpenRouter and includes an MCP server. It matters to practitioners who accumulate chat histories across providers with no export path.

AI Overview
- Developer releases ThreadShelf as OSS, a local tool that bulk-exports and searches chats from OpenRouter, LM Studio, and Google AI Studio.
- ThreadShelf combines exact and semantic search in one local archive and exposes an MCP interface.
- A llama.cpp wrapper was added after Gemma models proved problematic in LM Studio.
- Old chats can be continued locally via llama.cpp or through OpenRouter; a JS scraper handles OpenRouter's lack of bulk export.
