Recallr

Your AI assistant has the memory of a goldfish on a Tuesday. Recallr is the goldfish's diary.

Every time you open a new chat, your AI assistant gleefully forgets you exist. The clever workaround you found yesterday? Gone. The tone you spent six prompts dialing in? Gone. The fact that you prefer tabs and you've said it nineteen times? Definitely gone.

Recallr is the small, polite voice in the corner of VS Code that says "actually, you've done this before."


What you actually get

A list of every conversation you've ever had with your AI assistant — every chat, every CLI session — sitting neatly in your sidebar. Sorted by date. Searchable. Clickable. Findable. That alone is worth more than most people will admit out loud.

Then it goes a step further: it reads each conversation and writes you a one-paragraph "what happened here" summary. The goal, the decisions, what you learned, what broke, what worked. So six weeks from now, when you vaguely remember "I think I solved this caching thing once," you can find it in eight seconds instead of scrolling through a transcript the size of a Russian novel hoping for a clue.

And — because we all enjoy a small dopamine hit — every conversation gets a beautiful little activity graph. A timeline of who said what when, plus an interactive tree of the whole chat that you can click around in. Zoom, pan, expand, collapse, drill in. It's the closest thing to actually seeing the shape of a thought.


Why people install it

"I know I solved this before." You did. It's right there. Search by phrase. Open the original conversation in one click. Past-you was very clever and finally gets some credit.

"I want my AI to stop asking me my preferences." Recallr quietly hands the assistant a folder labeled "things this human already told me, please stop asking." The assistant reads it. The assistant stops asking. Domestic harmony returns.

"What did I decide last quarter and why?" You decided something. You had reasons. They are now retrievable. You can stop pretending you remember.

"My manager wants to know what I worked on this week." There is now a tab for that. Sorted by date. With summaries. Print it. Frame it. Take credit.

"I want to see the shape of my conversation." Click any session. Get a stacked timeline of activity and a clickable graph of every turn — collapsible, zoomable, drag-to-pan. It is genuinely soothing. We don't know why either.


How you use it

  1. Install the extension.
  2. Open the Recallr panel in the activity bar (look for the little memory icon — it has good posture).
  3. There's your life. Click anything.

That's the whole thing. There is no setup. There is no config file you have to lovingly hand-edit at 2 a.m. while questioning your career. It just shows up and starts being useful, like a good intern.


What it does not do

  • It does not phone home.
  • It does not upload anything anywhere.
  • It does not require an account, a key, a subscription, or a small ritual sacrifice.
  • It does not read your conversations and judge you. (It reads them. It does not judge. Probably.)

Everything stays on your machine, in files you already have. Recallr just reads them like a librarian who's good at their job.


Requirements

  • VS Code 1.93 or newer.
  • GitHub Copilot Chat installed (so there's something to remember).
  • GitHub Copilot CLI is a nice bonus if you live in the terminal too.

That's the whole list. There isn't a hidden second list.


A small testimonial from the author

I built this because I kept solving the same problems twice. Then three times. Then I caught myself patiently explaining my own preferences to my own assistant for the seventh time in a single afternoon and decided this was, on principle, unacceptable.

Now I open VS Code and there's a list of every conversation I've ever had, with summaries, with graphs, with one-click jump-back. My past self is finally pulling his weight. I tip him in coffee.
