I started with an AI chat exporter and ended up building a parser library
A developer who built a ChatGPT and Claude conversation exporter extracted the fragile DOM-parsing layer into decant-core, a reusable JavaScript library on GitHub. It supports 17 AI platforms plus general web extraction and HTML-to-Markdown conversion, aiming to spare other tool builders the recurring work of fixing selectors when platforms change their UI.

- The maintainer says the hard part was keeping extraction working as AI platforms changed their UI, DOM, and features, not the export features themselves
