Quickstart

Coding Agent Session Search (cass) Skill

Search across your local coding agent history (Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Cline, Cursor, Aider, etc.) to reuse past solutions and debugging context.

Quick Start

1. Setup

Install cass and verify installation:

dcli cass cli setup

2. Index History

Rebuild the search index to include recent sessions:

dcli cass index run --full

3. Search Across Sessions

Search for specific errors or implementation patterns:

dcli cass search run --query "authentication error in react" --limit 5

4. View Session Context

Once you find a hit, view the conversation detail:

dcli cass session view --path /path/to/session.jsonl --line-number 42

Or expand context around the hit:

dcli cass session expand --path /path/to/session.jsonl --line-number 42 --context 5

5. Check Activity

See statistics about your agent usage:

dcli cass activity stats

Tips for Agents

• Robot Mode: This plugin always uses --robot or --json to ensure clean, parseable output.
• Cross-Agent Knowledge: Use cass to find how other agents solved similar problems in this or other codebases.
• Index Freshness: If results seem outdated, run dcli cass index run to update the index.
• Semantic Search: If the cass binary is configured with model files, you can use --mode semantic or --mode hybrid for better conceptual matches.
