Editorial interest 81/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A local-first search tool for finding old conversations across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, Codex, Aider, and agent logs.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-10 issue.

Field notes

ChatGrep builds an index from AI-service exports, local coding-assistant logs, or arbitrary folders of chat JSON, then makes that archive searchable from the terminal, editor, or agent workflow. The page describes both regex and semantic matching, with results tied to an app, timestamp, and source-message jump link. It also presents an MCP server for Claude, Cursor, and other clients, plus exports in Markdown or JSON. Pricing begins at $19 per month for 100,000 indexed messages on one machine.
