Hi HN, I'm Rob. Contextify indexes every Claude Code and Codex session on your machine into one local, searchable database. The current session, in either tool, can search all of it: /total-recall in Claude Code, $total-recall in Codex. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvrvRGp4C9M | Mac app: https://contextify.sh (App Store or DMG) | Linux: CLI with a one-line installer, same search. No signup. I split my work between Claude Code and Codex. When I burn through rate limits on one, I switch to the other, and new models keep leapfrogging each other, so the…

I built an MCP server that gives Claude Code long-term memory across sessions, backed by infrastructure you control. Every Claude Code session starts from zero, no memory of previous sessions. This server uses mem0ai as a library and exposes 11 MCP tools for storing, searching, and managing memories. Qdrant handles vector storage, Ollama runs embeddings locally (bge-m3), and Neo4j optionally builds a knowledge graph. Some engineering details HN might find interesting: - Zero-config auth: auto-reads Claude Code's OAT token from ~/.claude/.credentials.json, detects token type (OAT vs…

I wanted to share a project I have been working on over the past week. It is a simple local memory system that saves your sessions into Markdown files, which can be viewed later. I developed this after using Claude Mem. I really enjoyed working with it, but it was consuming a lot of RAM, and each Claude session was becoming a major resource hog. I also tried other plugins and MCP solutions, but ran into similar issues, either slow performance or concerns about data being sent elsewhere. Because privacy was a big thing for me, I decided to build my own solution that keeps all data local.

*Claude Code History Viewer – A macOS Desktop App for Reviewing Claude Code History at a Glance* Hello everyone, I have a habit of reviewing my coding history when working with AI. It's important to trace back and understand "how did I get to this result?" Recently, while using Claude Code, I found it quite inconvenient to check the history in separate terminal tabs or editor windows. So I built a desktop app called *Claude Code History Viewer* using *Tauri + React + Rust*. ## Key Features & Highlights * *Claude Code Conversation History Visualization* When you install Claude Code,…

My team uses Claude Code daily, and the sessions have become some of the most useful artifacts we produce. But they're trapped in ~/.claude/projects/ on whichever laptop they happened on. There's no good way to hand a colleague "the session where I untangled the migration" so they can claude --resume it and keep going from where I left off. Enter ccgs: Share Claude Code sessions through an orphan branch (@ccgs/) in your existing repo's remote - Session files carry the author's absolute paths. On pull, ccgs rewrites the working dir back to your path so resume actually…

Hey HN, I built ShadowGit a while back to automatically commit code every minute to a hidden git repo (.shadowgit.git). Original goal was to easily rollback when AI tools break things. But I discovered something interesting: this minute-by-minute history is perfect context for AI assistants. So I built an MCP server that lets Claude/Cursor query this history using native git commands. The results surprised me: Before: Claude would read my entire codebase repeatedly, burning 15,000+ tokens to debug issues. After: Claude runs `git log --grep="drag"` finds when drag-and-drop worked,…

RAG pipelines have become bloated: embeddings, vector DBs, rerankers, and ad-hoc pipelines everywhere. Projects like Claude Code showed a simpler path: In-Context Retrieval — letting the LLM reason directly over context for retrieval instead of outsourcing search to external infrastructure. PageIndex takes that one step further with In-Context Indexing. If retrieval happens in-context, the index should live there too. Each document is transformed into a hierarchical, human-readable tree structure (like a table-of-contents tree index) inside the model's context window. The LLM reads the…

Hey HN, I think session transcripts written by coding agents like Claude Code and Codex are very interesting because they offer a detailed window into how work gets shipped. You can see the sequence of decisions that resulted in the final PR, what the agent got wrong, tools used etc. So I built a cli that analyzes these sessions and provides a local dashboard that shows what each session shipped (PRs, features), how much each PR cost, and recommendations for more effective usage. Concretely, it enriches each session with: - Outcome links: merged PRs, features shipped, files changed -…

Claude Code / Codex session metadata can actually tell a story about how you work with AI coding agents. 50 days ago we posted about analyzing 1.6k Claude Code sessions from our own team. Skills were used in 4% of sessions, 26% were abandoned early, and we had no real benchmark for what good looked like. Now across 20k+ sessions, we started looking at behavior patterns from derived session metadata: consistency, intensity, session shape, repo breadth, output, cost intensity, and model range. Nine archetypes fell out, which we turned into playful cards. We built a Spotify Wrapped meets…

Introducing Nia Vault, a CLI that lets you query your local markdown/text files using natural language. What it does: Semantic search over local folders and notes Works across multiple synced directories RAG-style answers with citations from your own files How it works: Calls `POST /search/query` with `local_folders` Uses `search_mode: sources` to return answers + file references Example: vault ask "What are my notes about project planning?"

I’d like to use LLMs for remembering all kinds of things: fitness, to-do lists, contacts, bug reports, research links, whatever. But there is no way to do that now. For example, if I find a great coding tutorial in chat, or tell it how much I ran yesterday, it forgets that when I close the chat. Even if I keep the chat history, I still need to scour through lots of messages to find the data I want. Ideally, Claude would remember all this, and I’d be able to find it later with ease. This is what my team built. It is a collaborative database you add to any LLM that supports MCP. (Claude Code,…

Hey HN! My name is Omkar Kovvali and I've been wanting to share my CC sessions with friends / save + access them easily,so I decided to make an MCP server to do so! /share -> Get a link /import -> resume a conversation in your Claude Code All shared sessions are automatically sanitized, removing api keys, tokens, and secrets. Give it a try following the Github/npm instructions linked below - would love feedback! https://github.com/OmkarKovvali/claude-session-share https://www.npmjs.com/package/claude-session-share
