scritty
scritty is a local-first terminal emulator designed for developers running command-line AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, and Ollama. By intercepting interaction streams at the process level, scritty automatically captures agent exchanges and indexes them into a unified local vector database. The platform exposes this persistent history back to agents via Model Context Protocol (MCP) and to human operators through a dedicated CLI. This prevents context loss when switching between tools or hitting rate limits.
What it does
Intercepts CLI process execution to capture and tag interaction streams across multiple AI coding agents. Indexes developer and agent conversations into an encrypted on-device local vector store. Exposes searchable historical memory to connected LLMs through a standardized local Model Context Protocol server. Injects global user rules dynamically into every agent message via terminal-level prompt configuration.
Why it works
Terminal-level capture abstracts memory retention away from individual proprietary agent vendor silos. Local-first vector indexing ensures zero cloud data leakage while enabling fast offline hybrid search. Standardized MCP server integration allows replacement or rotation of LLM providers without losing history. On-device XChaCha20 encryption with passphrase locking protects stored terminal credentials from third-party reads.

Founder story
scritty was created in 2026 by an indie developer operating as scritty-dev. After repeatedly encountering context loss and token wastage when switching between CLI agents like Claude Code, Copilot, and Codex due to provider rate limits, the founder built a custom terminal emulator. The tool was designed to sit beneath the process layer, capturing session histories and turning them into an encrypted, vendor-agnostic local knowledge base.
What it does
- Intercepts CLI process execution to capture and tag interaction streams across multiple AI coding agents
- Indexes developer and agent conversations into an encrypted on-device local vector store
- Exposes searchable historical memory to connected LLMs through a standardized local Model Context Protocol server
- Injects global user rules dynamically into every agent message via terminal-level prompt configuration.

Alternatives
Comparison overview
- scritty captures and indexes terminal execution logs across multiple AI agents into a single local-first vector store, whereas vendor-specific tools like Claude Code restrict memory to their own ecosystem.
- scritty exposes past terminal exchanges over a local MCP server for cross-agent queries, while standard modern terminal emulators like Warp focus on UI features and prompt completion.
