SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The episodic memory of Claude Code sessions is hard to search and track. This Skill enables fast, cross-session search to surface decisions, approaches, and insights, helping you avoid repeating work and learn from past reasoning.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Episodic search across all sessions to locate relevant decisions, rationales, and dead ends
  • Contextual filtering by project, date, keywords, and session metadata to refine results
  • Insight extraction: surface turning points, key decisions, and lessons learned for current tasks
  • Direct access to archives: locate raw session data at archives/<project>/<session-id>.jsonl for deeper inspection

Quick Start

Invoke the recall command with your search terms to surface matching past sessions.

FAQPage Schema
How do I search across Claude Code session histories to find past decisions?▼

You can search across Claude Code session histories by invoking the recall command with your search terms to instantly surface matching past decisions, rationales, and dead ends.

What is the best way to trace project reasoning from previous Claude Code sessions?▼

Tracing project reasoning is done by performing an episodic search across all sessions, which surfaces turning points, key decisions, and lessons learned relevant to your current task.

Can I filter session history search results by project and date?▼

Yes, contextual filtering by project, date, keywords, and session metadata is supported to refine search results and locate the specific decisions or insights you need.

How do I access raw session data for deeper inspection after searching?▼

Raw session data is accessible directly at archives/<project>/<session-id>.jsonl, allowing you to inspect the underlying episodic memory files after locating them through search.

Does the episodic-query CLI require any dependencies to search session histories?▼

No dependencies are required to use the episodic-query CLI integration for searching session histories, making it straightforward to start locating insights and past work.

Why search past Claude Code sessions instead of starting a new debugging approach?▼

Searching past sessions helps you avoid repeating work by extracting insights from prior reasoning, including approaches that led to dead ends, giving you immediate context for current debugging.
