Basestream

Your team uses AI every day. Now you can see what it's building.

Basestream automatically tracks what your developers build with AI tools and gives engineering leaders visibility into AI-powered output — no manual logging, no workflow changes.

basestream.ai

Install

npx @basestream/cli init

Basestream is also available via Homebrew:

brew tap basement-browser/basestream
brew install basestream
basestream init

Update

# npm
npx @basestream/cli@latest init

# Homebrew
brew upgrade basestream

This will:

1. Authenticate with your Basestream account
2. Configure automatic session tracking
3. Auto-link the current repo to your org
4. Start capturing work in the background

How it works

Basestream runs silently alongside your AI tools. At the end of each session, it captures what was built — files changed, commits made, tools used, token usage — and syncs it to your dashboard.

No prompts. No interruptions. No behavior changes required.

Org-aware tracking

Basestream automatically detects which org a repo belongs to. Sessions in org repos show up on that org's dashboard. Personal projects stay separate.

When you run basestream init or start your first session in a new repo, Basestream checks the server for existing activity and auto-links the repo to the right org. You can also manage this manually:

basestream link               # Auto-detect org from server
basestream link <orgId>       # Link to a specific org
basestream link --personal    # Mark as personal (not sent to any org)
basestream link --list        # Show all repo-to-org mappings
basestream link --remove      # Remove mapping for current repo

Supported tools

• Claude Code
• Cursor
• GitHub Copilot
• More coming soon
