fast-resume

Search and resume conversations across Claude Code, Codex, and more, all from one terminal UI.

Coding agents can resume previous sessions, but searching those sessions is often limited or title-only. fast-resume builds a single full-text index over your local agent history so you can find a prompt, response, project, or session and jump straight back in.

Highlights

Search titles, directories, user messages, and assistant responses across every supported agent.
Find imperfect matches with typo-tolerant Tantivy search and exact-match ranking.
Filter by agent, directory, and date from the command line or directly in the search box.
Preview conversations, copy resume commands, or hand off directly to the original agent.
Start immediately from the existing index while changed sessions refresh in the background.
Use agent artwork, mouse controls, responsive filters, and compact layouts in the Ratatui TUI.

Supported agents

Claude Code, Codex, Copilot CLI, Copilot in VS Code, Crush, OpenCode, and Vibe. See how it works for storage formats and resume behavior.

Install

Homebrew is the simplest option on macOS and Linux:

brew tap angristan/tap
brew install fast-resume

You can also install a binary wheel with uv:

uv tool install fast-resume

See the installation guide for uvx, Cargo, supported platforms, and terminal recommendations.

Quick start

# Search all sessions interactively
fr

# Start with a query or filters
fr "authentication bug"
fr -a codex -d backend "api error"

# Search without opening the TUI
fr --list "agent:claude date:<2d auth"

# Inspect or rebuild the local index
fr --stats
fr --rebuild

Inside the TUI, use the arrow keys to select a session and press Enter to resume it. Tab completes filters or cycles agents, Ctrl+P toggles the preview, and Ctrl+Y copies the resume command.

Documentation

Installation — packages, platforms, terminals, and upgrades
Usage — search syntax, CLI options, keybindings, yolo mode, and statistics
How it works — adapters, indexing, search, refresh safety, and resume handoff
Development — local setup, validation, project layout, and release packaging

Configuration

No configuration is required. The Tantivy index lives at ~/.cache/fast-resume/tantivy_index and is rebuilt automatically when its schema changes.

To reset it manually:

rm -rf ~/.cache/fast-resume
fr --rebuild
