deja-vu

deja-vu is a local memory tool that lets coding agents search past sessions so they stop repeating solved bugs for developers using Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.

What it is good for

  • Finding how a bug was fixed in an earlier coding session
  • Stopping coding agents from re-debugging problems already solved
  • Searching history across several coding agent tools at once
  • Recovering or resuming deleted coding agent chats
