ChatGPTMDExport

ChatGPTMDExport is a utility to extract ChatGPT conversations from HTML exports and convert them into clean, readable Markdown files. It supports full conversation exports, filtered responses by prompt keywords, and exact prompt-response matching.

Export your chats from ChatGPT to get started. I built this tool to help me create notes from questions I asked ChatGPT.

📦 Features

• ✅ Extract all conversations from an HTML file
• 🔍 Filter prompt-response pairs by a list of keywords
• 🎯 Find exact match prompts and get their responses
• 📝 Save outputs as structured Markdown files
• 💬 Works with multiple <div class="conversation"> blocks per HTML

🚀 Usage

1. Extract all conversations to Markdown

from parser import process_all_conversations

process_all_conversations("chat.html")

2. Extract only specific prompts

from parser import extract_specific_prompt

process_specific_prompt("test1/ChatGPT1.html", "dp", "dp_charges")

3. Filter with prompt list

from parser import process_all_conversations

process_all_conversations("chat.html", prompt_list=["DP", "Demat"])

Requirements

• Python 3.7+
• beautifulsoup4
• playwright
• lxml (optional but faster)

Check attached requirements.txt file

pip install -r requirements.txt

HTML Format

The tool expects exported ChatGPT history with this structure:

<div class="conversation">
  <div class="author">user</div>
  <div>Prompt text</div>
  <pre class="message">...</pre>
  <div class="author">ChatGPT</div>
  <pre class="message">...</pre>
</div>

🛠 TODO

• Add CLI support
• Regex / case-insensitive matching
• Merge all responses into a single notebook-style markdown file
