Semantic search over your own Claude Code session history
Per-project semantic search over your Claude Code session history — not a shared or centralized memory store. Indexes JSONL transcripts into a local SQLite file, retrieves via bge-m3 embeddings (Ollama) with automatic FTS5 BM25 fallback, and auto-injects relevant past context at session start. Companion to session-end: session-end gives "where I left off," session-indexer gives "what we decided" — same Stop/SessionStart hooks. Apache 2.0, 75 passing tests, go install and nothing to deploy.
I kept losing track of why we made past decisions across long-running projects — session-end gives you "where I left off," but not "what did we decide about X three weeks ago." So I built session-indexer to close that gap: a per-project SQLite index of your Claude Code session history, searchable by semantic similarity via bge-m3, with an automatic FTS5 keyword fallback so it never has a hard dependency on Ollama. It hooks into the same Stop/SessionStart events as session-end, so both just run together — no extra setup, no shared backend, nothing to deploy.
