# Termyte

> Keep coding work moving across agents and sessions.

# Pick up where you left off

Termyte keeps a local record of coding work. It captures what supported agents do and keeps each piece of work in a Work Thread: the task, its current state, and the evidence gathered along the way.

```bash theme={null}
npm install -g termyte
termyte init
termyte viewer
```

## What happens in the background

1. Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode sends an event through an installed hook or plugin.
2. Termyte removes common secret patterns and stores the event once, even if it is replayed.
3. It records useful views of prompts, completed tools, commands, and file activity.
4. A background worker processes the completed session and saves useful, source-linked history.
5. When one active Work Thread exists for a repository, its current state is supplied before older context.

Everything is stored in a SQLite database under `~/.termyte` by default. There is no Termyte account or hosted sync service.

<Warning>
  Redaction catches common patterns, not every possible secret. Treat the database as sensitive. If you enable memory processing, redacted trace-derived content can be sent to the provider selected during setup.
</Warning>
