chatrecall.dev · How it works · MCP tools · Pricing · Self-host · Security
Turn what your AI coding tools already write into shared team knowledge, leaked-secret alerts, ranked code findings and tracked tasks.
Your agents wrote it all down. Nobody read it.
Every coding agent you run keeps a full transcript of its work: the decisions, the
reasoning, the keys somebody pasted, the problems it found and never filed. Each one
writes to its own directory in its own format, none can read another's, and nothing
reads any of them. chat-recall does, through 63 MCP tools.
Underneath all four is one index of every session your tools already wrote, and 28 more tools to search, replay and diff it. That index is the mechanism. It is not the pitch, and it is not why anyone buys this.
The cross-tool part is what makes it work. A single tool's built-in history stops at its own boundary. This does not, and neither does your team.
Every screen below is real output against a real server, captured from the demo account. Nothing is mocked, replayed or re-timed.
One index, every tool. Search finds a session by what was discussed in it,
not by its filename, and memory status shows every source type in one place —
sessions beside the skills, MCPs, commands, subagents and hooks that produced
them.
Or just ask in plain English — no tool names, no session ids. The agent picks the call itself:
It also finds the credentials you pasted, and checks which ones still work. A dead key is hygiene. A live one is an incident, and only live ones raise an alert.
npx chat-recall init
That indexes the transcripts already on your disk, detects which AI tools you have, and registers the MCP server in each of their configs:
It only touches a config whose tool is on this machine, it never overwrites an entry you curated by hand, and chat-recall doctor prints one line per tool so a missing registration is visible. Inside Claude Code you can install the skills and the MCP server together instead:
/plugin marketplace add munhq/chat-recall
/plugin install chat-recall@chat-recall
Any other MCP client (Claude Desktop, Windsurf, Zed, Cline, or a tool init does
not know) takes the same server as a JSON entry. The bin is chat-recall-mcp,
which is why the package name alone is not enough — npx -y chat-recall starts
the CLI, not the server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"chat-recall": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "-p", "chat-recall", "chat-recall-mcp"]
}
}
}
The same command as one line, for a claude mcp add-style client: npx -y -p chat-recall chat-recall-mcp.
Then:
chat-recall search "that auth bug" # search everything you have ever done
chat-recall recent # what was I working on
By default this syncs to the hosted server at chatrecall.dev, which starts with a 7-day trial that needs no card and is a paid subscription after that — see pricing. To keep everything on your own machine instead, run the server yourself: that is free for one person, forever, with every feature and no licence key — the task board and Toolkit included — and a licence only buys collaboration: a second member, shared history, assigning work. See Self-host below. Either way the CLI is the same binary and the same commands; only the server URL differs.
No API keys are required. Search is Postgres full-text search. AI summaries are an optional upgrade, not a prerequisite.
It indexes every AI session on this disk, so init shows you what would upload — count, tools, and the projects by name — and waits for a yes before the first sync. (--yes, or no TTY, prints the same summary and proceeds; --skip-sync holds the upload back entirely.) Secrets are masked client-side and project paths are sent as hashes; on top of that you choose what is in scope at all:
chat-recall exclude project ~/work/client # a path, and everything under it, never syncs
chat-recall exclude tool cursor # one AI tool never syncs
chat-recall sync-only add git:github.com/me/app # invert it: ship ONLY what you list
chat-recall sources decline ~/.claude-work # a whole transcript profile stays out
# (--delete-remote purges what it already sent)
chat-recall exclude list # every rule in force
chat-recall delete <session-id> # purge one session on every server, tombstoned
chat-recall retention # how long the server keeps what you sent
chat-recall retention set 90 # delete anything older, on a timer (0 = keep everything)
Some tools file transcripts under a hash rather than a project folder, so those sessions have no path for a path rule to match; exclude tool is the control that covers them, and init prints that count. A retention window deletes from the server on a timer. retention set prints how many sessions it would remove and makes you confirm the number. It is undoable only where the original transcript is still on a machine you have — widen the window and chat-recall sync --full re-ships what it admits. For a laptop you no longer own, history your AI tool rotated, or files you deleted, our copy is the only copy. Export first if you want one.
Exclusions live on the machine that holds the data, so the CLI owns them; they apply from the next sync, and rows already synced stay until deleted. The dashboard's Sync rules panel adds rules across every device — unioned with the local ones, so it can only ever add protection. Full model, limits included: Security.
~/.claude/projects/), Codex (~/.codex/), OpenCode (~/.local/share/opencode/), Antigravity (~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/), Cursor (~/.cursor/ for the CLI, ~/.config/Cursor/ for the IDE), Hermes Agent (~/.hermes/) and Pi (~/.pi/agent/). Sessions, plans, tasks, CLAUDE.md files, paste cache, shell history and agent diaries all share one pluggable MemorySource interface.recall_smart_resume, recall_search (with like_session to find similar work), recall_edits_timeline, recall_subagent_search and recall_redundant_files rather than asking you what happened last time. It writes back too, via recall_decision_record, recall_kg_add and recall_set.UserPromptSubmit hook searches for similar past sessions on every prompt and injects a short "you have done this before, in session X" note into the agent's context.valid_from/valid_to windows, so you can ask what was decided in March and whether it still holds.A new backend is one file and one line — no changes to the engine. If a tool you use writes transcripts to disk, it can be indexed here, and a pull request is the fastest way to make that happen.
The React dashboard is part of the server (SaaS or self-host docker compose) — the CLI itself has no UI. For dashboard development:
npm run web:install # install web deps
npm run web:dev # API on :5000, UI on :5174
Everything on your own machine, no account, nothing sent anywhere:
git clone https://github.com/munhq/chat-recall && cd chat-recall
echo "ADMIN_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 24)" >> .env
echo "POSTGRES_PASSWORD=$(openssl rand -hex 24)" >> .env
docker compose up -d --build # FIRST RUN BUILDS FROM SOURCE (minutes)
Then mint a device token and connect a machine — the full sequence, with troubleshooting, is in docs/SELF_HOSTING.md.
Two containers: the server plus a bundled pgvector/pgvector Postgres, so a
plain docker compose up is self-contained. Bring-your-own-Postgres is
supported too (it is how the hosted service runs): set DATABASE_URL to an
external Postgres 16+.
You do not need a daemon. Claude Code spawns the MCP server, and that process syncs every 3 minutes on its own — the binary is the daemon. For a headless box with no assistant running, opt in to a background service:
chat-recall watch # foreground daemon: watches every tool, summaries, precompute
chat-recall watch --install-service # systemd user unit (Linux) · launchd (macOS) · Scheduled Task (Windows)
init does not install it, on purpose. Both paths push through the same
syncIncremental() under the same cross-platform index lock, so one writer
touches the ledger at a time — see docs/SYNC.md before changing
any of it. Secrets are masked client-side before anything leaves the machine.
chat-recall sync does the same push once, on demand.
chat-recall init does this for you. Manual equivalent in ~/.mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"chat-recall": {
"command": "chat-recall-mcp"
}
}
}
chat-recall-mcp is a relay, not the server. It finds the background daemon for
your tool profile, starts one if there is none, and passes bytes to it. Every
session on a machine therefore shares one loaded engine instead of carrying its
own: a session costs about 50 MB rather than 87 MB, against a single shared
daemon, and background sync runs in one process instead of racing a lock in all
of them. The daemon exits 15 minutes after the last session closes.
Two knobs, both optional:
CHAT_RECALL_NO_DAEMON=1 # load the whole server in each session instead
CHAT_RECALL_DAEMON_IDLE_SECS=0 # keep the daemon resident (default 900)
If the daemon cannot be reached for any reason, the session loads the server itself and works exactly as it did before — slower, never broken.
Then install the hooks (one command sets up auto-save, pre-compact backup, and the resume-hint that warns when you're about to redo work):
chat-recall install-hooks # registers all five events, in every Claude profile
chat-recall install-hooks --no-resume-hint # skip the resume warning
chat-recall install-hooks --no-wakeup # skip the session-start wake-up bundle
chat-recall install-hooks --no-escalate # skip the session-end escalation
chat-recall install-hooks --uninstall # remove all of ours, leave third-party hooks alone
A decision nobody reads is a suggestion. chat-recall guard runs before a tool
call and says so when the call reaches for something already ruled out:
chat-recall: this reaches for something already decided against.
- keycloak was ruled out — BetterAuth is the decision (2026-03-14) · session 8f2c1a4e
Proceed only if this is a deliberate reversal. If it is, record it:
recall_decision_record with the area, so the old decision is closed rather than contradicted.
It fires on installs, imports and manifest edits — npm install auth0, a new
import line, a name added to package.json. Never on prose: "we could use
Auth0" in a sentence must not stop anything, or the guard becomes something
people switch off.
It warns; it does not block. A wrong block costs the user a turn and gets the
guard uninstalled; a wrong warning costs a line of context. Set
CHAT_RECALL_GUARD_ENFORCE=1 to block instead, per machine. CHAT_RECALL_GUARD=0
turns it off.
chat-recall install-hooks registers it in all five tools. Each one keeps its
pre-execution hook in its own file, so the installer writes five shapes and
skips any tool that is not on the machine (--no-guard to skip all of them):
Codex needs one more step. It runs a hook only after you trust it — open
Codex and run /hooks once. chat-recall doctor reports the registration for
each tool.
Two of those are not full coverage, and the docs say so rather than implying
otherwise. Cursor exposes beforeShellExecution but only afterFileEdit, so
an import added in an edit is reported after the write, not prevented.
OpenCode's plugin hooks do not fire for subagent tool calls
(#5894), so an agent that
delegates routes around it.
There's a separate MCP server called codeindex (Zig binary, ~56 MB) by munhq that gives the agent code-level lookup. The two compose:
Together the agent can answer "have I built this before?" and "does it already exist in this codebase?" before redoing work.
How chat-recall handles it: chat-recall init detects whether codeindex is on your PATH (or at ~/.local/bin/codeindex). If yes, it registers it as an MCP server in ~/.mcp.json automatically — no download, no surprise. If no, it prints a one-line hint about how to get it.
chat-recall init # default — detect and register if installed
chat-recall init --with-codeindex # additionally force-download the binary
chat-recall init --skip-codeindex # don't even check
chat-recall companions install # download manually (after init)
chat-recall companions status # show what was detected
chat-recall companions uninstall # remove the binary + MCP registration
codeindex is open source (MIT) at github.com/munhq/codeindex. The install is optional — chat-recall works entirely without it; you just don't get the code-level tools.
Search & retrieve — recall_search, recall_memory_search, recall_recent, recall_show, recall_context, recall_summary, recall_smart_resume, recall_project_context, recall_weekly_digest, recall_analytics_summary, recall_wake_up.
Pattern detection — recall_search with like_session: <id> (find work similar to a given session), recall_redundant_files (warn when a new filename overlaps prior work), recall_diff with files_only: true (what files session X actually touched), recall_edits_timeline with group_by: "session" (which sessions edited auth.rs).
Subagents & filters — recall_subagent_search (search inside hidden Explore/aside/compact transcripts), recall_user_prompts (only what the human typed, banner-stripped).
Findings, ranked — recall_claude_suggestions (every finding that becomes an agent-instruction change: the CLAUDE.md rules and skill installs, merged across account scope and every indexed project) and recall_improvements (everything else, ranked most urgent first, with create_tasks: true to open one team task per item). They partition the same recommendation engines, so an item never appears in both.
Knowledge graph — recall_kg_query, recall_kg_add, recall_kg_invalidate, recall_kg_timeline, recall_kg_stats. Plus recall_decision_record to write a decision as both a triple and a diary entry in one call.
KV state — recall_set, recall_get (no key = list the scope). Small persistent values keyed by namespaced strings: "current PR url", "branch I'm working on", user prefs.
Diary & status — recall_diary_write, recall_diary_read, recall_status (includes memory breakdown), recall_index. Plans/tasks: search via recall_memory_search(source_types:['plan','task']), read via recall_show.
Removing things — recall_forget deletes one conversation from the server permanently, tombstoned so no later sync restores it (your own transcript file is untouched); recall_exclude_path stops a path syncing, on this machine and on your account. They exist as tools because "forget that conversation" and "stop syncing this repo" are things people say mid-conversation, not things they open a dashboard for. Both require confirm: true, both are annotated destructive, and neither is auto-approved — your client asks every time. The boundary is one-way on purpose: an agent can narrow what is stored and there is no tool that widens it again (no un-exclude, no allowlist, no retention). Widening is yours: chat-recall exclude remove, or the dashboard.
When the codeindex companion is installed, the agent also gets 16 code-level tools (find_symbol, find_callers, get_imports, plan_change, get_change_impact, analyze, etc.) from a separate MCP server. They compose: chat-recall finds what you've done; codeindex tells you what currently exists.
Search runs on the server, and it is Postgres full-text search: keyword
matching with ranking, plus pg_trgm typo tolerance. It needs no embedder, no
API key and no extra service.
The CLI ships redacted chunks to the server, which indexes them.
Cost in USD is computed from token usage when at least one model in the session has a rate the server knows. For every other model — anything local, anything self-hosted, anything newer than the rate table — the dashboard shows — instead of fabricating a number. The summary surfaces a sessionsWithoutPricing counter, so you can see how much of the total the figure actually covers.
chat-recall memory wake-up
Builds a small bundle for an AI session: optional identity blurb, the top 10 chunks the classifier flagged as decisions/preferences/milestones at importance ≥ 4, and a snapshot of currently-valid knowledge-graph facts. No magic compression — just the highest-signal items the indexer already tags.
The CLI keeps almost nothing locally — just what it needs to reach the server:
All indexed content — chunks, FTS, vectors, knowledge graph, secret findings, diary — lives on the server (Postgres for self-host and SaaS). Reset it by wiping the server's Postgres data, not anything under ~/.chat-recall.
Your sessions sync to a chat-recall server — either one you self-host (your own box, your own Postgres) or the SaaS. Before anything leaves the CLI it is redacted: secrets are masked client-side, so the server never receives raw credentials. Self-hosting keeps all data on infrastructure you control; the SaaS is the hosted alternative.
No telemetry. Your data lives in your server's Postgres — back that up however you like. On the SaaS it lives in the hosted Postgres; self-host if you'd rather keep it entirely on your own infrastructure.

Two extension points, both registry-driven:
MemorySource (discover → parse → extractLinks) and register it in the SourceRegistry.ToolBackend (paths, ID handling, readEvents, fileToolMap, extractEditDelta) and register it in packages/engine/src/core/backends/index.ts. All paths are env-overridable via CHAT_RECALL_{CLAUDE,CODEX,AGY,CURSOR,CURSOR_IDE,HERMES}_HOME / CHAT_RECALL_OPENCODE_DB.~/.claude/,
~/.codex/, ~/.local/share/opencode/, ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/.That is the whole list. No API key is needed to install, index or search.
One feature is opt-in, and it needs a back end that you choose:
Without it, sessions carry no generated summary. Everything else works the same.
Elastic License 2.0 for the whole repository.
In plain terms: use it, modify it, run it for yourself or inside your company, free and without asking. The one thing you may not do is offer it to third parties as a hosted or managed service — that is the product. You also may not strip the licence-key checks or the copyright notices.
It is source-available, not OSI open source, and this README will not pretend otherwise. It replaced a split where the CLI and engine were MIT and the server was BSL 1.1, which answered "may I use this?" three different ways inside one repository.
