Conversation history

Your conversations with Claude Code (the Claude app's Code tab included), Codex, Gemini CLI, Grok and Cursor, uploaded so your coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) can search them and so you can continue a session in another tool. Chat apps don't get these tools unless you turn them on.

0b history on
0b history search "how did we deploy"

• Only messages and questions with their answers; not the tools the agents ran.
• Text shaped like keys is masked on your machine first.
• Agents search with bridge__history_search. A project's History tab shows its repo's conversations.
• 0b history mode e2e encrypts the text with your vault key: only your machines can search it.
• 0b history exclude <repo> skips a repo; 0b history forget <session-id> (or --all) deletes.
• Free shows the last 30 days of history: searches, lists and resumes leave out sessions last active before then. Nothing is deleted, and Plus or Team shows all of it (Pricing).

Near-real-time upload#

0b history on asks once whether to add hooks. With them, Claude Code, Codex and Cursor tell 0bridge when a turn ends, and the conversation uploads a few seconds later: after a 5 second pause, and at most one upload every 15 seconds per machine. Without hooks, or for tools with no hook, a background job uploads every 15 minutes (macOS, Linux and Windows).

• 0b history hooks on|off|status manages them. They are silent, never slow a turn down, and off removes only the entries 0bridge added.
• Codex may ask you to trust a new hook the first time.

The same hooks feed the session board with what each session is doing now. Token counts follow history, and are readable by the server even in end-to-end mode: Usage.

Short references and resume#

Each session has a short reference like 0b:k3f9x2, shown by 0b history and on the dashboard's History page. 0b resume 0b:k3f9x2 or saying "continue 0b:k3f9x2" in a connected AI continues it: Resume anywhere.

Chat apps: your switch#

Under Settings → AI apps on the dashboard, Chat history gives Claude, ChatGPT and other chat apps bridge__history_search, bridge__history_get, bridge__resume and bridge__session_save. New accounts start with it on; an account from before 2026-10-06 keeps what it had (off unless you turned it on). It can be turned on only from the dashboard after you confirm it's you, and turned off from anywhere: ask any connected AI (it calls bridge__settings_off), or run 0b settings off chat-history. The history tools are never offered through a connector directory listing or the review account.

History in server mode is readable by 0bridge so these tools can search it. In end-to-end mode, chat apps can't open it at all.

Which tools are collected#

Claude Code, the Claude app's Code tab, Codex (CLI and app), Grok and Cursor's app, plus Gemini CLI. Where available, OpenClaw's Codex-based sessions and Cursor's command-line agent are collected too. A second Claude Code folder (CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR) and CODEX_HOME are read and tagged as their own account. Run 0b history sync --dry-run to see what it finds on your machine.
