sessionview
Headless server for SessionView — browse your local AI coding sessions (Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, Kimi Code, Cursor, OpenCode, CC-Mirror, Pi, Grok Build) from any browser.
npx sessionview # http://127.0.0.1:9921
npx sessionview --open # …and open the browserThe server shares its index (SQLite in ~/.sessionview) with the SessionView
desktop app, so sessions indexed by either are instantly visible in both. The
launcher checks for newer releases on startup and downloads them automatically
(fail-soft: offline it runs the installed version).
