README

tern-projects

A curated project sidebar and unified agent history search for [Tern](https://stencil.so/tern).

Bring order to your AI coding sessions across **OMP, Claude Code, Codex, Pi, OpenCode, and Cursor**.

Quickstart

Run this inside Tern:

tern plugin install github.com/thegeneralist01/tern-projects

**Toggle the sidebar:**

macOS: ⌘ ⌥ S
Windows / Linux: Ctrl + Alt + S

*(Or open **Projects** from the Tern command palette).*

That's it. Tern fetches the plugin, and the background engine builds automatically on first load. No manual compile steps, no extra configuration.

To update later:

tern plugin install github.com/thegeneralist01/tern-projects --force

What it does

If you use multiple AI coding agents, your sessions are scattered across hidden SQLite databases and JSONL files. `tern-projects` unifies them into a fast, native sidebar:

📁 Curated "My Projects" & Multi-Folder Workspaces — Real projects rarely live in a single directory. Group an app, its backend API, shared libraries, and documentation into one named project with a custom icon.
🎯 Primary Launch Directories — Pick one folder as Primary (where fresh agent sessions spawn), while additional directories are automatically supplied via --add-dir to harnesses that support multi-folder workspaces (OMP, Claude Code, Codex).
🔍 Instant Full-Text Search — FTS5-powered search across all your past sessions. Filter by Worktree, Repository, or All history with live keyword highlighting.
🚀 Fresh Chat Launching — Press ⌘N (Ctrl+N) to launch a new chat in your preferred CLI (omp, claude, codex, pi, opencode, or cursor).
📌 Global Pins & Recents — Keep critical threads pinned to the top of your sidebar. Recents keeps your 15 most recent chats one click away.
