Claude Code Undo
Comprehensive Claude Code Undo comandos and workflows for reverting changes, managing checkpoints, and implementing granular undo functionality without wasting tokens.
Overview
Claude Code Undo tools provide checkpoint restoration and granular undo capabilities for Claude Code sesións, allowing developers to instantly revert changes without consuming additional API tokens. These tools read Claude Code's sesión files to track file changes and enable selective restoration of previous states, similar to Cursor's checkpoint functionality.
⚠️ uso Notice: Undo tools modify Claude Code sesión files and project files. Always backup impuertoant work and ensure proper version control before using undo operations.

await ccundo.checkpoint('before-ai-changes');
// Perform Claude Code operation
const result = await claudeCode.execute(prompt);
// Evaluate result quality
const quality = await evaluateCodeQuality(result);
if (quality < threshold) {

await ccundo.undo({ operation: 'last' });
console.log('Reverted poor quality changes');

Best Practices
Checkpoint Strategy
# Regular checkpoints
ccundo checkpoint "milestone-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M)"
# Feature-based checkpoints
ccundo checkpoint "feature-auth-complete"
# Before major changes
ccundo checkpoint "before-refactor-$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"
# After successful tests
ccundo checkpoint "tests-passing-$(date +%s)"
Undo Workflow
# 1. Review available operations
ccundo list --recent 10
# 2. Preview undo operation
ccundo preview --operation 5
# 3. Create safety checkpoint
ccundo checkpoint "before-undo-op5"
# 4. Perform undo
ccundo undo --operation 5
# 5. Verify results
ccundo verify --operation 5
# 6. Clean up if successful
ccundo clean --old-checkpoints
