session_logs

A tool for searching and analysing the agent’s saved conversation files from earlier sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for finding past conversations by keyword, listing saved sessions, reading a specific session, and counting sessions. It does not search the current chat or unrelated files.
Why use it?
It helps recover decisions, requests, or other context that is not part of the current conversation.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

session_logs scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (search_sessions.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Session Logs

Search your complete conversation history stored in session Markdown files.

When to Use

USE this skill when:

  • "What did we talk about yesterday?"
  • "Find the conversation where I asked about X"
  • "How many sessions have I had?"
  • "What was the decision we made about Y?"
  • User references a past conversation not in current context

When NOT to Use

DON'T use this skill when:

  • Current session context → already in your message history
  • Application error logs → use read_file on log files directly
  • Non-PythonClaw logs → use run_command with grep/rg

Session File Location

Session files are stored under ~/.pythonclaw/context/sessions/.

Each session is a Markdown file named <session_id>.md containing the full conversation transcript.

Commands

List all sessions by date and size

ls -lhS ~/.pythonclaw/context/sessions/*.md

Search across ALL sessions for a keyword

python {skill_path}/search_sessions.py "keyword"

Or with grep:

grep -rl "keyword" ~/.pythonclaw/context/sessions/*.md

Read a specific session

cat ~/.pythonclaw/context/sessions/<session_id>.md

Count sessions

ls ~/.pythonclaw/context/sessions/*.md | wc -l

Notes

  • Session files are append-only Markdown
  • Large sessions can be several hundred KB — use head/tail for sampling
  • Session IDs follow the pattern <channel>_<id> (e.g. telegram_123456, web_default)
  • The history_detail.jsonl file contains structured tool-call logs

File Description
search_sessions.py Search across all session files by keyword
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

session_logs is a skill published in the GitHub repository ericwang915/PythonClaw (41 stars, last pushed 24d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 482 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
