The prompt hook always answers `{"continue": true}`, with the recall block + beside it when there is one. `/past-status` is where a person learns something is wrong, so a + failed send is kept in `state.json` (`lastError`) for it. +2. **Only prose travels.** The journal holds three kinds of entry: the prompt as the person typed + it (`beforeSubmitPrompt.prompt`), the reply as Cursor shows it (`afterAgentResponse.text`, the + turn's final message) and the end of a turn (`stop`). Tool calls and their output, file + contents, attachments, the model's thinking and injected context never reach it, and past.dev's + own block is dropped by its header. A prompt that only runs one of the plugin's skills + (`/past-…`) is not conversation, and neither is its answer: Cursor gives a prompt and its reply + the same `generation_id`, and a reply whose prompt was never recorded is left out (a reply with + no id counts only while a turn is open). A chat whose journal records no prompt (a subagent's) + is never sent, and a chat from a window with no folder open is labelled `no folder`. +3. **The journal is the conversation, timed by this machine's clock.** Every entry carries the + time it arrived. Cursor's transcript file is not read: Cursor does not describe its format as + stable, it holds no time per line, and with some models it merges the reasoning into the reply. +4. **A chat is sent once it is quiet, by one sender.** Cursor never says a chat is over: its + `sessionEnd` fires only when a window closes, too late to start a command. So `stop`, `start` + and `wake` make sure one detached sender runs (`send` mode). Once a minute, on the wall clock, + it reads the journals written since their last send and sends a chat once it has been quiet for + its sitting length. Quiet starts at the last entry of a finished turn; a turn whose prompt has + no reply or end yet holds its chat for `idleMinutes` (Cursor quit in the middle). The sender + leaves when nothing waits, and the next hook starts it again. + - One sender at a time: it holds `~/.past/cursor/sender.lock` (a directory, since mkdir is + atomic) for its life and names itself in `sender.json`. A lock whose holder is gone is taken + over; one younger than ten seconds belongs to a sender still starting. + - `SENDER_VERSION` is bumped whenever the sender changes: a sender that an older version + started is replaced, because it is a long-lived process running the code it started with. + - A chat whose send failed is left for the next sender run, so a revoked key never keeps a + process asking. +5. **A sitting already sent never changes.** A sitting starts at the first prompt after the chat + was quiet for `sittingMinutes` (30 by default, 5 at least), and a chat is sent only once it has + been that quiet, so whatever is said afterwards starts a new sitting and nothing sent is paid + for twice. `ingest` sends a chat at once, so it is the one way a sitting can be sent again. + `state.json` keeps one hash per sitting and pins `sittingMinutes` per chat at its first send, + so a changed value never moves the boundaries of a chat already in past.dev. Every new sitting of + a chat goes in one `/api/v1/ingest/batch` call. +6. **The recall rides on an undocumented field.** Cursor's hooks reference gives + `beforeSubmitPrompt` two outputs, `continue` and `user_message`, yet Cursor delivers the hook's + `additional_context` to the model before it answers. That is what puts recall in front of every + prompt, and the chat's first prompt also carries the project's brief, since `sessionStart`'s + documented context is lost to a race. If a release stops delivering it, nothing says so: the hook + still recalls and spends. So the check after each Cursor release (below) is part of the job, and + `promptRecall: false` turns that recall off while `past_recall` keeps working. +7. **A recall query is redacted like the content it would send.** It crosses the network exactly + as ingested content does, and both go through `redact()`. +8. **`state.json` changes only through `updateState`.** Hooks, the sender and commands are + separate processes. `updateState` takes a lock (`~/.past/state.lock`, a directory, taken over + after 5 s, skipped after 3 s so a hook never hangs), re-reads the file, applies the change and + renames the new file into place. A file that does not parse is read again a few times and, if it + still does not, left as it is. +9. **No dependencies.** Node 16 or later, standard library only, so installing is a clone. `fetch` + is used where Node has it and the `http` modules where it does not: Cursor started from the Dock + finds the `node` of a login shell, which is often an old one. On Node 16 a stalled `http` call + is destroyed when its time is up. Nothing in the script is newer than Node 14 can parse (no + `||=`), so on an older Node the hooks stay silent rather than fail. +10. **What a chat renders does not change by a byte.** The heading and the speaker names that + `renderSitting` prints are part of each sitting's hash, and so are `SOURCE`, `AGENT` and + `SPEAKER` at the top of the script: a changed byte sends every sitting of a chat that grows + afterwards again, as a paid revision. `sittingId` and `sittingsOf` are fixed for a related + reason: changed, they move the boundaries of every chat that grows afterwards. +11. **`~/.past` is the person's alone.** The folder is `700` and every file in it is created `600`, + the journals included. A plain-http `apiUrl` on another machine sends the key unencrypted: + `connect` warns, and `status` says so on its first line. +12. **The product is written past.dev.** Every sentence a person reads says past.dev: the READMEs, + the manifest's display name, the skills, the rule, what a mode prints. Identifiers keep `past`: + the plugin's name, the skills (`/past-status`), the tool (`past_recall`), `~/.past`, the key + prefix `past_sk_`, the data point ids and the recall block's header, + `=== past · recalled from memory ===`, which the journal reader drops by that exact text. + +## Beside other past.dev plugins + +`~/.past` can be shared with another past.dev plugin on the same machine. `config.json` is then one +connection for all of them. This plugin keeps its chats under `hosts.cursor` in `state.json`, and +everything else of its own in `~/.past/cursor/` and `~/.past/hosts/cursor.json`. The rest of +`state.json` is never read here, and every write puts it back as it was (rule 8). + +## Cursor + +- **Hooks run in the plugin's folder.** So the project and the branch come from the workspace + Cursor names (`CURSOR_PROJECT_DIR`, or the first of `workspace_roots`), never from the hook's + working directory. The branch is read from the workspace's `.git`, a worktree's `.git` file + included. +- **A skill's command learns nothing about the plugin's folder.** So every hook writes + `~/.past/cursor/past.mjs`, a two-line launcher that imports the installed script, and the skills + run `node "$HOME/.past/cursor/past.mjs" `. A skill's own prompt runs the prompt hook first, + so the launcher exists before its command does. +- **Ask mode removes MCP tools.** There the prompt hook is the only way recall reaches the model. +- **Cursor shows the agent only tool names until it opens one.** The always-applied rule says what + the recall block is and when `past_recall` helps. +- **The two skills that take a key or send data run only when named** (`past-connect`, + `past-ingest`: `disable-model-invocation: true`). +- **Windows** runs hooks through PowerShell, and their input can open with a byte-order mark, + which `readStdin` drops. Nothing else here has been run on Windows. + +## Contracts this depends on + +- `POST /api/v1/ingest/batch`: one item per sitting. `id` gives replacement (`cursor:` + for the first sitting, `cursor::` for the others), `timestamp` dates every memory + drawn from the item, `label` names the chat (`Cursor · · `, or `Cursor · no folder`), `metadata` carries + `conversationId`, `project`, `cwd`, `gitBranch`, `sitting`, `turns` and `cursorVersion`. +- `POST /api/v1/recall`: **`identity` is required**. Recall stays off until `/past-connect` sets + one. +- `audience` on ingest: a slug; absent means the whole project. `connect --audience` checks it with + `GET /api/v1/audiences/{slug}`. +- Cursor gives every agent hook `conversation_id` (and `session_id`, the same value), + `generation_id`, `cursor_version` and `workspace_roots`, and sets `CURSOR_PROJECT_DIR` and + `CURSOR_VERSION` in its environment. `beforeSubmitPrompt` gives `prompt` and `composer_mode`, + and takes `continue` and `additional_context`; `afterAgentResponse` gives `text`; `stop` gives + `status`. `${CURSOR_PLUGIN_ROOT}` is expanded in `hooks.json` and `mcp.json`. + +If any of these contracts changes, this file changes with it. + +## Testing + +By hand: there is no test suite. CI parses the script on Node 14, runs it on Node 16 and 22, and +checks that the manifests hold together. + +For the hooks and the sender, point a throwaway home at a local stand-in for the API, so nothing +touches your real `~/.past` or a real project: `HOME=/tmp/past-test` with a `config.json` whose +`apiUrl` is `http://127.0.0.1:`, a few lines of Node answering `POST /api/v1/recall` and +`POST /api/v1/ingest/batch` and logging what arrives, and each hook mode fed its stdin JSON by hand: + +```bash +echo '{"conversation_id":"…","generation_id":"g1","prompt":"…","workspace_roots":["…"]}' \ + | HOME=/tmp/past-test node plugins/past/bin/past-hook.mjs prompt +``` + +A journal written with times in the past makes a chat due at once, so `send` can be watched +sending without waiting half an hour. `mcp` reads JSON-RPC lines on its input: `initialize`, +`tools/list` and `tools/call` with `past_recall`. + +On a real Cursor, the plugin loads from a folder: copy `plugins/past` to +`~/.cursor/plugins/local/past` and reload the window. Cursor's **Hooks** output channel shows each +hook as it runs. + +**After each Cursor release**, check that the recall still reaches the model: a local plugin whose +`beforeSubmitPrompt` returns `{"continue": true, "additional_context": "The probe word is …"}`, +then a prompt that asks the model for the probe word.

Each sitting is dated at its own first prompt, so a decision made on the third day of a +long chat is remembered on that day, and past.dev can tell which of two statements came later.

Each sitting is dated at its own first prompt, and what past.dev remembers takes the date +of the sitting it came from. A chat is sent once it has been quiet that long, by one small process +that watches every chat and leaves when none is waiting. Whatever is said afterwards starts a new +sitting, so a sitting already in past.dev is never sent again. + +The plugin also serves `past_recall`, a tool the agent calls to look something up in past.dev, and a +short rule that tells it what the recall block is and when the tool helps. Cursor's Ask mode offers +no tools, so there recall arrives with the prompt alone. + +## What leaves this machine + +The prompts as you typed them, the agent's reply to each, and the project and branch names. That +is all. + +Not sent: tool calls and their output, file contents, diffs, command output, attachments, the +model's thinking, what the agent writes between tool calls, and anything injected into the chat. +Strings that look like keys, tokens or private keys are replaced with `[redacted]` before anything +is sent. + +Run `/past-cut` to read exactly what would be sent, before it is. + +## Skills + +| Skill | Does | +|---|---| +| `/past-connect` | store the key, identity and audience in `~/.past/config.json`, mode `600` | +| `/past-status` | what it is connected to, what it has sent, and the last send that failed | +| `/past-cut [chat]` | print exactly what would be sent from a chat, by default the latest one here | +| `/past-ingest [chat]` | send one chat now, without waiting for it to go quiet | + +Without an audience everyone in the project sees what you send. `/past-connect --audience ` +narrows it to an audience from the console; `--audience project` widens it back. + +## Configuration + +`~/.past/config.json`: + +```json +{ + "apiKey": "past_sk_…", + "identity": "you@example.com", + "apiUrl": "https://api.past.dev", + "audience": "developers", + "recall": true, + "promptRecall": true, + "ingest": true, + "sittingMinutes": 30, + "idleMinutes": 720, + "deny": ["/Users/you/clients/acme"] +} +``` + +- `audience` is an audience slug from the console; leave it out and the whole project sees what + you send. +- `recall: false` stops the reading and keeps the sending. `ingest: false` does the opposite, and + nothing is kept on this machine either. +- `promptRecall: false` stops the recall in front of every prompt and keeps `past_recall`. Cursor + delivers that recall through a field of its prompt hook that its documentation does not + describe; if a Cursor release stops delivering it, this stops the spend. +- `sittingMinutes` is how long a chat stays quiet before it is sent, and before what follows starts + a new sitting (30 by default, 5 at least). A chat keeps the length it was first sent with. +- `idleMinutes` is how long a turn that never ended holds its chat back (720, twelve hours): Cursor + quit in the middle of it. +- `deny` holds path fragments. A chat whose workspace matches one is ignored completely: nothing + is read and nothing is sent. +- `PAST_API_KEY`, `PAST_IDENTITY` and `PAST_API_URL` override the file. +- Self-host: point `apiUrl` at your own deployment. Nothing else changes. Use `https`: over plain + `http` to another machine the key travels unencrypted, and `connect` and `status` warn about it. + +## Requirements + +Cursor 3.23 or later, and Node 16 or later on the path of your login shell. + +## Where it keeps things + +Everything lives in `~/.past/`, a folder only you can open: `config.json` (the connection), +`state.json` (what was sent, as content hashes, under `hosts.cursor`) and `cursor/`, which holds one +journal per chat (its prompts and replies, with their times), the sender's lock, and `past.mjs`, the +fixed path the skills run. + +## Removing it + +Uninstall the plugin in **Customize**, then delete `~/.past/cursor`. Revoking the key in **Build › +API keys** stops it immediately from the server side. What was already sent stays until you delete +it in the console. + +## License + +MIT.
