/stats graph displays 12-month period while local history defaults to 30-day retention

[shostako]

Problem

The /stats command displays a GitHub-style contribution graph spanning 12 months (Dec → Jan → ... → Dec), but the local conversation history (~/.claude/projects/) defaults to 30-day retention via cleanupPeriodDays.

This creates a misleading visualization where:

• Only ~1 month of data appears on the right edge
• The remaining ~11 months are filled with empty dots
• The stats footer even acknowledges this: "Stats from the last 39 days"

Current Behavior

The graph always shows a full year regardless of available data, resulting in mostly empty visualizations for users who haven't modified the default retention period.

Suggested Improvement

Consider one of these approaches:

1. Match graph period to cleanupPeriodDays: Default to 30-day graph, extend only if user has configured longer retention
2. Add period selector: Allow users to toggle between "30 days", "90 days", "1 year" views
3. Auto-scale: Detect actual data range and scale the graph accordingly

Environment

• Claude Code version: v2.0.72
• OS: Windows (WSL)

Additional Context

The GitHub contribution graph works because GitHub retains a full year of data. Adopting the same UI pattern without matching data retention creates a UX inconsistency.
