agent-archive 0.2.1

Archive and browse agentic coding sessions

Agent Archive

Archive and browse agentic coding sessions. Parses session logs from multiple agents and generates a searchable MkDocs static site.

Supported agents: Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Pi, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot

Requirements

• Python 3.10+

Installation

Install as a standalone CLI with uv:

uv tool install agent-archive

Or with pip:

pip install agent-archive

For development (from a local clone):

uv sync

Usage

Quick start

The run command syncs, builds, and serves the archive in one step:

agent-archive run --output ~/ai-sessions

This is equivalent to running sync, build, and serve in sequence. It accepts all the same flags as the individual commands:

agent-archive run --output ~/ai-sessions \
  --claude-path ~/.claude \
  --pi-path ~/.pi/agent \
  --opencode-db ~/.local/share/opencode/opencode.db \
  --gemini-path ~/.gemini/tmp \
  --copilot-path ~/.copilot \
  --port 9000 \
  --no-browser

Individual commands

Use the individual commands when you need more control — for example, to sync on one machine and serve on another, or to rebuild without re-syncing.

Sync

Parse agent logs and write Markdown files into <output>/docs:

agent-archive sync --output ~/ai-sessions

Agent log directories are auto-discovered at their default locations. Override any of them:

agent-archive sync --output ~/ai-sessions \
  --claude-path ~/.claude \
  --pi-path ~/.pi/agent \
  --opencode-db ~/.local/share/opencode/opencode.db \
  --gemini-path ~/.gemini/tmp \
  --copilot-path ~/.copilot

Only sessions that have changed since the last sync are re-parsed (incremental).

Secret redaction is on by default — API keys, tokens, and env var values are replaced with REDACTED in the rendered output. To disable:

agent-archive sync --output ~/ai-sessions --no-redact

Build

Generate the MkDocs config and build the static HTML site into <output>/site:

agent-archive build --output ~/ai-sessions

Serve

Start a local HTTP server and open the archive in a browser:

agent-archive serve --output ~/ai-sessions

A local server is required because the site uses JavaScript for search. Default port is 8000.

agent-archive serve --output ~/ai-sessions --port 9000 --no-browser

Sharing across multiple machines

You can point all your machines at the same output directory synced via Dropbox, Syncthing, or similar. Each machine maintains its own .sync_state.<hostname>.json file in the output directory so they never interfere with each other.

On each machine, run sync independently:

agent-archive sync --output ~/Dropbox/ai-sessions

Sessions from all machines accumulate in the shared archive. To browse from any machine, build and serve:

agent-archive build --output ~/Dropbox/ai-sessions
agent-archive serve --output ~/Dropbox/ai-sessions

Or use the shortcut:

agent-archive run --output ~/Dropbox/ai-sessions

Development

Run tests:

uv run pytest

Adding a Parser

Subclass BaseParser to support a new agent log format:

from pathlib import Path
from agent_archive.parsers.base import BaseParser
from agent_archive.models import Session

class MyAgentParser(BaseParser):
    def discover(self) -> list[Path]:
        # Return all log file paths for this agent
        ...

    def parse(self, filepath: Path) -> list[Session]:
        # Parse the log file and return Session objects
        ...
