agentgrep 0.1.0a8

Read-only search for local AI agent prompts and history (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini, Grok)

agentgrep

Read-only search for local AI agent prompts and history across Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini, and Grok.

agentgrep provides a CLI and an MCP server over the same discovery + parsing layer:

• A terminal CLI (agentgrep) with a Textual TUI for interactive browsing of normalized records.
• An MCP server (agentgrep-mcp) that exposes search, discovery, catalog, and validation tools to any client that speaks Model Context Protocol.

Pre-alpha. APIs may change.

Install

$ uvx agentgrep --help

Other install methods (pipx, uv add, pip install) and full setup snippets live in the installer widget on agentgrep.org/cli/.

CLI quickstart

Search prompts and history across every configured agent:

$ agentgrep grep "deploy"

Stream JSON so a non-MCP agent or shell pipeline can consume the results:

$ agentgrep find --json

Open the read-only Textual TUI for interactive browsing:

$ agentgrep grep --ui

--json and --ndjson make every command pipe-friendly. Agents that don't speak MCP can drive the CLI directly; see https://agentgrep.org/cli/ for the per-subcommand reference.

MCP server: quickest setup

In Claude Code:

$ claude mcp add agentgrep -- uvx --from agentgrep agentgrep-mcp

For Claude Desktop / Codex / Cursor / Gemini snippets, see https://agentgrep.org/mcp/.

Library quickstart

from pathlib import Path

import agentgrep

backends = agentgrep.select_backends()
query = agentgrep.SearchQuery(
    terms=("hello",),
    search_type="all",
    any_term=False,
    regex=False,
    case_sensitive=False,
    agents=agentgrep.AGENT_CHOICES,
    limit=10,
)
for record in agentgrep.run_search_query(Path.home(), query, backends=backends):
    print(record.agent, record.title or record.path)
