SHISHO — AI Session Capture for VS Code

Automatically capture and save your AI coding sessions from Roo Code, Cline, and other tools into SHISHO.

Every conversation you have with AI coding assistants contains valuable context — decisions made, problems solved, approaches explored. SHISHO captures these sessions so they're searchable, organized, and never lost.

Features

Roo Code integration — Automatically captures sessions when tasks complete
Cline integration — Detects completed tasks via file system monitoring
Zero-friction sync — Sessions are saved automatically in the background
Secure authentication — Device Authorization Flow, tokens stored in VS Code SecretStorage

Getting Started

Install the extension from VS Code Marketplace
Run SHISHO: Login from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P)
Authorize in your browser at shisho.me
That's it — sessions are captured automatically

Commands

Command	Description
`SHISHO: Login`	Authenticate with your SHISHO account
`SHISHO: Logout`	Sign out
`SHISHO: Show Status`	View account info and provider status
`SHISHO: Sync Sessions Now`	Check sync status

Settings

Setting	Default	Description
`shisho.autoSync`	`true`	Automatically sync completed sessions
`shisho.providers.rooCode.enabled`	`true`	Enable Roo Code session capture
`shisho.providers.cline.enabled`	`true`	Enable Cline session capture
`shisho.providers.copilot.enabled`	`true`	Enable GitHub Copilot Chat session capture
`shisho.providers.cursor.enabled`	`true`	Enable Cursor AI session capture
`shisho.apiUrl`	`https://api.shisho.me`	API endpoint

Status Bar

The status bar shows the current state:

$(key) SHISHO: Login — Not logged in
$(cloud-upload) SHISHO — Ready, waiting for sessions
$(sync~spin) SHISHO: Syncing... — Uploading a session
$(error) SHISHO: Error — Something went wrong

How It Works

SHISHO listens for completed AI coding sessions:

Roo Code: Uses the extension API to detect TaskCompleted events
Cline: Monitors api_conversation_history.json files for changes

When a session completes, the conversation is parsed, converted to a structured format, and sent to the SHISHO API. SHISHO then generates a title, tags, and metadata using AI.

Works With the SHISHO Ecosystem

This extension is part of the SHISHO platform:

shisho.me — Web app for browsing memos, sessions, and AI-generated books
shisho — CLI for Claude Code session capture + MCP server
ChatGPT integration — Save ChatGPT conversations via MCP
claude.ai integration — Save Claude conversations via MCP

All your AI interactions in one place.

Requirements

VS Code 1.85.0 or later
A SHISHO account (shisho.me)
Roo Code and/or Cline extension installed

Privacy

Session data is sent to the SHISHO API over HTTPS. Tokens are stored securely in VS Code's SecretStorage. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Migrating from the Nokos extension

SHISHO is the new name of Nokos. This extension (shisho.shisho-vscode) replaces the old nokos.nokos extension on the Marketplace.

Install SHISHO from the Marketplace, then uninstall Nokos
Run SHISHO: Login once — the old Nokos login cannot be carried over (a fresh device authorization at shisho.me is required)
Settings moved from the nokos.* namespace to shisho.* (e.g. nokos.autoSync → shisho.autoSync); the defaults are unchanged, so nothing is needed unless you customized them

Sessions you already captured are in your SHISHO library at shisho.me — nothing is lost.
