LevelDB Operations

Read and decode LevelDB stores — primarily the Chromium/Electron storage layers (Local Storage, IndexedDB, Session Storage) used by every Electron app on disk: Claude Desktop, VS Code, Discord, Slack, Obsidian.

What is LevelDB

Embedded key-value store by Google. Sorted KV map, no SQL, no server. Format: a folder of .ldb (sorted runs), .log (write-ahead), MANIFEST-*, CURRENT, LOCK. Both keys and values are arbitrary bytes.

Chromium layers richer formats on top:

• Local Storage — flat key→string map, scoped per origin. Easiest to read.
• Session Storage — same shape, per-tab.
• IndexedDB — per-origin databases with object stores, indexes, versioned schemas. Encoded with v8 serialization. Needs a real reader.
