I started building my own version of this in Superlogical Rex.
It's a bit hard to decide where to hook in.
Rex has events, harnesses have hooks, terminal output can set program status, git has hooks.
I'm not sure I actually want every session from every machine saved. That's a lot of noise especially when half of coding sessions are experimental / throwaway.
But at the same time its not that much data that's easy to ripgrep / LLM through.
Probably a little late to this, because herdr has really eaten this segment. With their new Mac app, I don't see myself going back to atuin for this kind of experience. In fact, I get a little peeved using it on a vanilla terminal.
I love Atuin, but have some reservations about a shared server keeping all my shell history and agent sessions. Am I being too paranoid and missing out on convenience?
Same, I really wanted to share history, but when I realised I was going to need to send things to a remote server I instead wrote a tiny script to search through backups that are shared across machines by Syncthing.
I just search over $BACKUPS/*/latest/local/share/fish/fish_history with grep and skim
I've spent the last couple of months putting a lot of time and energy into isolating my agents from each other: aggressive sandboxing, regular scanning of transcripts for agent-leaked credentials, per-agent encrypted credential stores, even physical (and network) separation of machines with different areas of work on them. Needless to say, as much as I have found atuin an excellent manager of my command-line history, I will be avoiding this.

Built this for same purpose: https://github.com/codealong/codealong
More of a desktop flavor though

It is encrypted client side. Or you can run your own server.
> Am I being too paranoid and missing out on convenience?
No, I'd say it is more-so a lack of reading the article that is causing you to miss out.
I did read the article but missed that. Paranoia can definitely co-occur with distracted reading, they're independent dimensions ;)
Thanks for the info, will give it a try

Nice solution
Atuin is open source, you can just host your own server?
Fair enough, I missed that. Will give it a try!
I've been using (and supporting) atuin for a while, and I find it a required bit of infrastructure. This is a nice upgrade!
