README
wend
Find, recover, and resume your past **agent** sessions (Claude Code, Codex, opencode) — from the terminal or from inside Claude Code itself. Fast, local, single binary, zero network.
You run dozens of agent sessions across many directories and can't find the one you need. `wend` indexes your whole local history (`~/.claude/projects`, `~/.codex/sessions`, and opencode's `opencode.db`) and lets you:
- find a past session by keyword —
wend search "that firecrawl pricing chat" - recover the pre-compaction history the live UI hides —
wend show --recovered⭐ - resume an old session —
wend resume→ the right command for that session's source (claude --resume …,codex resume …, oropencode run --session …, each with thecd …first) - read / label / map —
wend show,wend name "",wend tree
Everything is local and read-only over your transcripts; the only state it writes is its own index (`~/.local/share/wend/index.db`, `0600`).
The default build makes no network calls at all. One opt-in feature can: `--features azure` sends prompt text to an Azure OpenAI endpoint **you** own, and only when you have set all three `WEND_AZURE_*` variables. See [Semantic search](#semantic-search).
Install
**One-liner** (prebuilt binary, macOS + Linux):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/us/wend/main/install.sh | sh
Pin a version with `WEND_VERSION=v0.1.0` or change the target dir with `WEND_INSTALL_DIR=~/.local/bin`. On macOS, `curl|sh` installs avoid the Gatekeeper quarantine bit (a binary downloaded via the browser would be quarantined unless notarized).
**Prebuilt binary (manual):** download the archive for your platform from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/us/wend/releases) (macOS arm64/x64, Linux x64 gnu + musl static, Windows x64), unpack, and put `wend` on your PATH. These are the lean keyword-only build.
**From source:**
cargo install --path crates/wend-cli # puts `we
