aichat

Overview

AIChat is a Claude Code plugin that provides tools for searching, resuming, and recovering context from previous CLI coding agent sessions. It solves the problem of losing track of past work, decisions, and code patterns across multiple Claude Code or Codex CLI sessions.

Key Features

• Session search agent — Automatically searches previous sessions when you ask questions like "what did we work on yesterday?" or "find sessions where we discussed authentication," returning concise summaries without polluting the main context
• Context recovery — Extracts the last task, current state, pending items, and associated docs from a parent session when resuming work, using session lineage to find the most recent parent
• Quick resume commands — Hook commands like >resume, >continue, and >handoff that copy session IDs to clipboard and show instructions for continuing work in a new session
• CLI search tools — Full CLI with interactive TUI search, JSON output for scripting, and project-based filtering via aichat search

Who is this for?

This plugin is for developers who run many Claude Code or Codex CLI sessions and need a way to search through their history, recover context when resuming work, or hand off sessions. It is especially useful for those working on long-running projects where tracking what was discussed and decided across sessions becomes difficult.
