Session search
Cheap full-text recall over past sessions — borrowed from Hermes' "search your own history" idea, done lightweight with ripgrep, no database.
Where
Claude session transcripts: ~/.claude/projects/<project-id>/*.jsonl
(one JSONL per session).
How (token-frugal — grep, then sample; never read a transcript in full)
rg -l "<2–4 keywords>" ~/.claude/projects/*/→ which sessions mention it.rg -i -C2 "<keywords>" "<that .jsonl>"→ matching lines + a little context.- Read only the hits. The JSONL files are large — never open one whole.
Order of recall
Check the wiki first (curated, durable memory). Use session-search for things not yet filed there. If a recurring finding turns up, promote it into the wiki (librarian) so next time it's a cheap wiki lookup, not a transcript scan.
