ChatPaste is a Chrome extension that send chat logs from ChatGPT to terminal stdout.
WARNING! ChatPaste no longer working. I spend more time on local LLM than ChatGPT and not motivated to maintain this program. Maybe I'll fix this in the future but until then, ChatPaste is broken and there is no update coming.
Only tested with free ChatGPT, not on ChatGPT Plus or Playground.
Only tested on desktop Chromium on linux.
Formating from response is mess-up, paragraph merged into wall of text. That the limitation from using textContent. I considered injecting breakpoint, but for now, use Enable raw HTML and other tool to get better output. See ## Usage below.
Send all chats button only send chats that are visible. Branch that are not selected/hidden will not be included.
Shared Links is not tested, yet.

By default, webpaste listen on 0.0.0.0 and port 8080. You can change this using flag -a and -p.
For example:
webpaste -a 127.0.0.1 -p 8080For more details, visithttps://github.com/tomnomnom/hacks/tree/master/webpaste
By default, ChatPaste send textContent which will mess the paragraph, formating etc.
To get better formating, Enable raw HTML and use other tools such pandoc or html2md.
Install: go install github.com/suntong/html2md@latest
Somehow, direct webpaste | html2md doesn't work.
Workaround:
export WEBPASTE_TOKEN=iloveweb
while true; do
read -r line
html2md -i --opt-escape-mode="disable" <<< "$line" | tee -a save_file.txt
done < <(webpaste)This is the example to "clean" the html and get output similar to disabling raw HTML.
export WEBPASTE_TOKEN=iloveweb
while true; do
read -r line
prompt=$(rg '^(.*)?<div class="w-\[30px\]"><div.*?alt="User".*?</div></div>(<div class="text-xs.*?>)(<button.*)$' -o -r '$1$2<text>Prompt: </text>$3' <<< "$line")
if [[ -n "$prompt" ]]; then
line=$prompt
fi
chatgpt=$(rg '^(.*)?<div class="w-\[30px\]"><div.*?y="-9999">ChatGPT.*?</div></div>(<div class="text-xs.*?>)(<button.*)$' -o -r '$1$2<text>ChatGPT: </text>$3' <<< "$line")
if [[ -n "$chatgpt" ]]; then
line=$chatgpt
fi
html2md -i --opt-escape-mode="disable" <<< "$line" | tee -a save_file.txt
done < <(webpaste)Yes, I use regex to parse html. Use at your own risk. Don't use it for summoning ritual or demonic contract.
A bash script to wrap webpaste and html2md. I use it to save both HTML and markdown files.
