Browse, search, and track costs across all your AI coding agents. One binary, no accounts, everything local.

Install

# macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://agentsview.io/install.sh | bash

# Windows
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://agentsview.io/install.ps1 | iex"

Or download the desktop app (macOS / Windows) from GitHub Releases or via homebrew: brew install --cask agentsview

Or run the published Docker image:

docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
  -v agentsview-data:/data \
  -v "$HOME/.claude/projects:/agents/claude:ro" \
  -v "$HOME/.forge:/agents/forge:ro" \
  -e CLAUDE_PROJECTS_DIR=/agents/claude \
  -e FORGE_DIR=/agents/forge \
  ghcr.io/kenn-io/agentsview:latest

Quick Start

agentsview serve           # start server, open web UI
agentsview usage daily     # print daily cost summary

On first run, agentsview discovers sessions from every supported agent on your machine, syncs them into a local SQLite database, and opens a web UI at http://127.0.0.1:8080.

Remote / forwarded access

agentsview binds to loopback and validates the request Host header to guard against DNS-rebinding attacks. When you reach it through SSH port-forwarding, a reverse proxy, or a remote dev environment (exe.dev, Codespaces, Coder, WSL2), the browser sends a Host that the server does not recognize, so API requests such as /api/v1/settings are rejected with 403 Forbidden.

To fix this, restart the server with --public-url set to the exact origin you open in the browser:

# Browser opens http://127.0.0.1:18080 via `ssh -L 18080:127.0.0.1:8080 host`
agentsview serve --public-url http://127.0.0.1:18080

# Browser opens a forwarded hostname
agentsview serve --public-url https://your-workspace.exe.dev

Use --public-origin (repeatable or comma-separated) to trust additional browser origins. If you expose the UI beyond loopback, also enable --require-auth.

Docker

The container image defaults to local agentsview serve. Set PG_SERVE=1 to switch the startup command to agentsview pg serve instead.

docker-compose.prod.yaml is included as a production example:

docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yaml up -d

The included compose file persists the agentsview data directory in a named volume and mounts Claude, Codex, Forge, and OpenCode session roots read-only. The container runs as root, so prefer a named volume for /data over a host bind mount; if you do bind-mount, pre-create the directory with the desired ownership to avoid root-owned files in your home directory.

The examples publish the UI on loopback only (127.0.0.1). If you need to expose it beyond localhost, enable --require-auth and publish the port intentionally.

Important: a containerized agentsview instance can only discover agent sessions from directories you explicitly mount into the container. If you do not mount an agent's session directory and point the matching env var at it, that agent will not appear in the UI.

Example PostgreSQL-backed startup:

docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
  -e PG_SERVE=1 \
  -e AGENTSVIEW_PG_URL='postgres://user:password@postgres.example.com:5432/agentsview?sslmode=require' \
  ghcr.io/kenn-io/agentsview:latest

Example DuckDB mirror startup:

# Populate /data/sessions.duckdb from the mounted SQLite archive.
docker run --rm \
  -v agentsview-data:/data \
  -v "$HOME/.claude/projects:/agents/claude:ro" \
  -e CLAUDE_PROJECTS_DIR=/agents/claude \
  ghcr.io/kenn-io/agentsview:latest duckdb push --full

# Serve the populated mirror read-only.
docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
  -v agentsview-data:/data \
  ghcr.io/kenn-io/agentsview:latest duckdb serve

Example Quack startup:

# Expose the local DuckDB mirror over Quack from the host/container.
QUACK_TOKEN="$(openssl rand -base64 32)"
docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:9494:9494 \
  -v agentsview-data:/data \
  ghcr.io/kenn-io/agentsview:latest \
  duckdb quack serve \
    --bind quack:0.0.0.0:9494 \
    --token "$QUACK_TOKEN" \
    --allow-insecure

# Serve the web UI from a remote Quack endpoint.
docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
  -e AGENTSVIEW_DUCKDB_URL='quack:https://duckdb.example.com' \
  -e AGENTSVIEW_DUCKDB_TOKEN="$QUACK_TOKEN" \
  ghcr.io/kenn-io/agentsview:latest duckdb serve

Keep Quack on loopback or behind TLS. Plain HTTP Quack on a non-loopback bind requires --allow-insecure and should only be used behind a trusted tunnel or reverse proxy.

Token Usage and Cost Tracking

agentsview usage is a fast, local replacement for ccusage and similar tools. It tracks token consumption and compute costs across all your coding agents -- not just Claude Code. Because session data is already indexed in SQLite, queries are over 100x faster than tools that re-parse raw session files on every run.

# Daily cost summary (default: last 30 days)
agentsview usage daily

# Per-model breakdown
agentsview usage daily --breakdown

# Filter by agent and date range
agentsview usage daily --agent claude --since 2026-04-01

# One-line summary for shell prompts / status bars
agentsview usage daily --all --json
agentsview usage statusline

Features:

• Automatic pricing via LiteLLM rates (with offline fallback)
• Prompt-caching-aware cost calculation (cache creation / read tokens)
• Per-model breakdown with --breakdown
• Date filtering (--since, --until, --all), agent filtering (--agent)
• JSON output (--json) for scripting
• Timezone-aware date bucketing (--timezone)
• Works standalone -- no server required, just run the command

Per-Session Details

agentsview session usage <id> prints per-session token statistics plus a cost estimate for a single session. The output reports the session's total output tokens and peak context tokens, plus a cost estimate in USD (cost_usd) when pricing is available for the session's model(s) (has_cost). Cost is computed from input/output and cache tokens internally, but only the output-token and peak-context totals are reported alongside the cost.

# Print token usage and cost for a specific session
agentsview session usage <id>

# JSON output for scripting
agentsview session usage <id> --format json

The same per-session usage data is available from the REST API:

GET /api/v1/sessions/{id}/usage

The response includes the session_id, agent, project, total_output_tokens, peak_context_tokens, has_token_data, cost_usd, has_cost, models, and unpriced_models fields from the CLI JSON schema. HTTP responses also include server_running: true. Existing sessions return 200 even when token or cost data is absent; missing sessions return 404.

The deprecated alias agentsview token-use <id> remains available for compatibility and now also reports cost estimates.

Session Stats

agentsview stats emits window-scoped analytics over recorded sessions: totals, archetypes (automation vs. quick/standard/deep/marathon), distributions for session duration, user-message count, peak context, and tools-per-turn, plus cache economics, tool/model/agent mix, and a temporal hourly breakdown. The --format json output follows a versioned v1 schema (schema_version: 1) suitable for downstream consumers.

By default, stats only reads the local SQLite archive. Git-derived outcome metrics are opt-in because they can be slow or brittle on large/missing repos: use --include-git-outcomes for commits/LOC/files changed, and --include-github-outcomes for GitHub PR counts via gh (this also enables git outcomes).

# Human-readable summary over the last 28 days
agentsview stats

# Machine-readable JSON over a fixed date range
agentsview stats --format json --since 2026-04-01 --until 2026-04-15

# Restrict to one agent and inspect the schema
agentsview stats --format json --agent claude | jq '.schema_version'

# Include expensive local git outcome metrics explicitly
agentsview stats --include-git-outcomes

Antigravity CLI: high-resolution transcripts

Antigravity CLI sessions now appear in two on-disk formats. Newer releases store conversation trajectories as SQLite .db files, which agentsview indexes directly. Older releases stored assistant turns and tool calls in AES-GCM-encrypted .pb files; for those sessions, agentsview falls back to summary mode using your prompts from history.jsonl plus any plain-text artifacts under brain/ (plans, walkthroughs, checkpoints).

To unlock full transcripts for older .pb sessions, run agy-reader alongside agentsview. agy-reader talks to the local Antigravity daemon, decrypts each conversation, and writes a <uuid>.trajectory.json sidecar next to the encrypted .pb file. agentsview's file watcher detects the sidecar automatically and parses it in place of summary mode -- no agentsview restart needed.

go install github.com/mjacobs/agy-reader@latest

# Generate sidecars for existing sessions...
agy-reader --sync

# ...or keep them fresh as you work.
agy-reader --watch

agy-reader auto-discovers the Antigravity daemon URL by parsing ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/cli.log. If discovery fails (e.g. the log has rotated), the command prints platform-specific instructions for locating the port and exporting ANTIGRAVITY_DAEMON_URL manually.

Sidecars stay on your machine. agentsview makes no outbound request to produce or read them, and treats sidecars as untrusted structured input -- see SECURITY.md for the trust model.

PostgreSQL Sync

Push session data to a shared PostgreSQL instance for team dashboards:

agentsview pg push       # push local data to PG
agentsview pg serve      # serve web UI from PG (read-only)

Automatic push (background service)

To keep a shared PostgreSQL database current without running pg push by hand, run the auto-push daemon. It watches your session directories and pushes shortly after new sessions are recorded, with a periodic floor as a safety net:

agentsview pg push --watch                 # foreground, Ctrl-C to stop
agentsview pg push --watch --debounce 1m   # custom coalesce window
agentsview pg push --watch --interval 5m   # custom floor interval

The daemon reads the same [pg] config as pg push, so the PostgreSQL DSN must be set in your config file (or an environment variable it expands). Protect the config file, since it holds credentials:

chmod 600 ~/.agentsview/config.toml

To run it unattended as an OS service (launchd on macOS, systemd --user on Linux):

agentsview pg service install     # generate the unit, enable + start it
agentsview pg service status      # show manager status
agentsview pg service logs -f     # follow the service log
agentsview pg service uninstall   # stop and remove

Linux headless machines: systemd --user services stop at logout and do not start at boot unless lingering is enabled for your user. install detects this and prints the command; you can also run it yourself:

loginctl enable-linger "$USER"

See PostgreSQL docs for setup and configuration.

DuckDB Mirror and Quack

DuckDB support is a mirror backend, not a replacement for the local SQLite archive. agentsview serve still performs primary ingestion into SQLite. Use DuckDB when you want a portable analytics file, read-only local serving from a mirror, or remote read access through DuckDB's Quack protocol.

agentsview duckdb push          # mirror SQLite into DuckDB
agentsview duckdb status        # show mirror sync status
agentsview duckdb serve         # serve web UI from DuckDB (read-only)
agentsview duckdb quack serve   # expose the local DuckDB file over Quack

agentsview duckdb serve reads [duckdb].path or AGENTSVIEW_DUCKDB_PATH. To serve from a remote Quack endpoint, set AGENTSVIEW_DUCKDB_URL and AGENTSVIEW_DUCKDB_TOKEN instead. Quack is still a new DuckDB protocol, so agentsview keeps conservative defaults: local Quack serving binds to loopback, requires a token, and rejects non-loopback plain HTTP unless --allow-insecure is explicit. For remote use, prefer a TLS URL or put Quack behind an authenticated tunnel/proxy.

Backend modes:

• SQLite: primary local archive, file sync, FTS5 search, and writable UI.
• PostgreSQL: optional shared team backend; push from SQLite, serve read-only.
• DuckDB: optional mirror file or Quack endpoint; push from SQLite, serve read-only.

Troubleshooting:

• If duckdb push fails to open the mirror, confirm the binary was built with the DuckDB Go driver for your platform and that AGENTSVIEW_DUCKDB_PATH points to a writable file location.
• If Quack commands fail with extension errors, update the agentsview binary so the embedded DuckDB runtime includes the Quack extension.
• If a remote attach fails, check the token, the quack: URL, TLS/proxy termination, and whether the server was intentionally started with --allow-insecure for plain non-loopback binds.
• DuckDB search currently uses substring/regex fallback behavior. SQLite FTS5 remains the indexed search path for primary local serving.

Privacy

agentsview sends a limited anonymous daemon_active telemetry ping to PostHog when the server starts and every 24 hours while it runs, using a stable random install ID as the event DistinctId. The event includes application=agentsview, app version, commit, OS, and CPU architecture, with $process_person_profile=false and $geoip_disable=true. It does not include session, project, prompt, file path, account, or machine identity. Disable telemetry with AGENTSVIEW_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=0 or TELEMETRY_ENABLED=0. Telemetry is also hard-disabled in Go test binaries, regardless of environment.

All session data stays on your machine. The server binds to 127.0.0.1 by default. The update check is optional and can be disabled with --no-update-check.

Development

Requires Go 1.26+ (CGO), Node.js 22+.

make dev            # Go server (dev mode)
make frontend-dev   # Vite dev server (run alongside make dev)
make build          # build binary with embedded frontend
make install        # install to ~/.local/bin

make test           # Go tests (CGO_ENABLED=1 -tags "fts5,kit_posthog_disabled")
make bench-backends # compare SQLite, DuckDB, and PostgreSQL store reads
make lint           # golangci-lint + NilAway
make nilaway        # NilAway through custom golangci-lint
make e2e            # Playwright E2E tests

make bench-backends requires Docker. It starts a PostgreSQL container with testcontainers, mirrors the same SQLite fixture into DuckDB and PostgreSQL, and benchmarks the shared db.Store read queries for relative comparison. The default fixture is 1,000 sessions and 64,000 messages; use BENCH_BACKENDS_SESSIONS and BENCH_BACKENDS_MESSAGES_PER_SESSION to scale it. When the Docker CLI uses a non-default socket, export DOCKER_HOST for that socket before running the benchmark.

Pre-commit hooks via prek: run make lint-tools and make install-hooks after cloning (requires prek and uv).
