From cc-recall
Use when trying to find or restore a past Claude Code session — "did we already do X", "find the session where…", recurring topics, or prior work. Search the cc-recall sidecar before grepping raw transcripts.

cc-recall makes past Claude Code sessions discoverable by what was done, asked, and questioned. It maintains a SQLite sidecar index with FTS5 search over ~15k sessions.

Step 1 — Search the sidecar (fastest, most accurate):
cc-recall search "<what you remember>"
Results show <session_id> <title>, ranked by relevance. The query matches titles, summaries, facets, phrases, and files touched.
Step 2 — If the sidecar misses, try claude-mem:
Use the observation_search or memory_search MCP tools with similar keywords.
Step 3 — Last resort, grep raw transcripts:
grep -rl "<specific term>" ~/.claude/projects/
/recall:backfill — index existing transcripts (run --dry-run first)/recall:migrate — consolidate old home-path slugs (prerequisite to backfill)/recall:doctor — health checks (sidecar integrity, coverage, claude-mem G0)/recall:status — quick status line (session count, coverage, surface health)/recall:lineage — walk handoff chains across sessionsEach session gets a RecallRecord with: title, summary, asks_implemented, completions, handoff_in/out, artifacts (files, tools, phrases), and three retrieval facets (completed, questioned, asked_about). Records are stored in a sidecar SQLite DB and optionally injected into the transcript itself.
