vsearch

vsearch is a skill for Claude Code from vlinx-io/VelaTerm. It costs 141 tokens per session (1,001 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A full-text search tool for finding words in the recorded conversations of all vlx-term sessions on the machine.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search past conversations, then use the matching session details to investigate the relevant discussion.
Why use it?
It helps recover earlier decisions, fixes, or context without knowing which session contained them or asking someone to repeat the discussion.

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

vsearch 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 1mo ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 83 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

vsearch

vsearch searches conversation history across every vlx-term session on this machine, or within one specified session. It is a pure read: nothing is written, and no other session is interrupted.

When to use it

Reach for it on your own initiative, without waiting to be asked:

  • The user points at another conversation: "how did we fix this last time", "the approach from the other session", "that decision we made yesterday". The trigger is the meaning, in whatever language it comes.
  • You hit an error, a config value, or an unfamiliar module that feels like it has come up before.
  • You are about to make a design choice that an earlier session may already have settled.

The failure to avoid: telling the user that earlier conversations are out of reach. They are not. Search before you say something cannot be found.

Do not use it for searching code or files — that is what Grep and Glob are for. vsearch searches conversations.

How to run it

vsearch <words...> [--session <session>] [--all|--archived] [--limit N] [--json]
  • Multiple words are an implicit AND and word order does not matter. Two or three distinctive words work better than a long sentence.
  • --session <session> restricts the search to one session. It accepts the same full id, id prefix, exact name, or unique name substring as vrefer; quote names containing spaces. A specified session is searched whether live or archived unless an explicit scope flag is supplied; --archived limits it to archived targets, while --all retains the broad target scope.
  • By default only live sessions are searched. Add --all to include archived ones, or --archived to search only those.
  • --limit N caps how many sessions come back (default 10).
  • --json gives the full machine-readable result, including every snippet.

What it searches

Conversations only. Sessions whose agent keeps a readable transcript — claude, codex, opencode, pi, omp, and grok — are the ones it can reach. Other agents store their history in private formats that are not parsed yet, so their sessions are invisible to it, as are plain terminal sessions. When a query matched such a session through its terminal recording, the output says how many were left out; that is expected, not a failure.

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.

vsearch is a skill published in the GitHub repository vlinx-io/VelaTerm (301 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 141 tokens to every session and 1,001 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-08.
