Session History OpenClaw Plugin & Skill | ClawHub
Looking to integrate Session History into your AI workflows? This free OpenClaw plugin from ClawHub helps you automate search & research tasks instantly, without having to write custom tools from scratch.
What this skill does
Search and browse past conversation history across all sessions. Use when recalling prior work, finding old discussions, resuming dropped threads, or when the user references something from a previous conversation that isn't in memory files. Also use when asked to "remember" something discussed before, find "that conversation about X", or continue work from a past session.

Session History
Search through past OpenClaw session transcripts (JSONL files in ~/.openclaw/agents/*/sessions/).
Quick Reference
# Search for conversations about a topic
python3 scripts/search_sessions.py "gclid pipeline error"
# List recent sessions
python3 scripts/search_sessions.py --list --days 3
# Search specific agent's history
python3 scripts/search_sessions.py "flight monitor" --agent main
# Wider time range
python3 scripts/search_sessions.py "quantum encryption" --days 30 --max-results 5
Workflow
- Run
search_sessions.pywith the user's query terms to find relevant sessions - Use
sessions_historytool with thesessionKeyto pull full context from a match - If
sessions_historydoesn't work (old/closed sessions), read the JSONL file directly withread - Summarize what was found — don't dump raw transcripts
When to Use
- User says "remember when we discussed X?" or "we talked about Y last week"
- Resuming a thread that isn't captured in memory files
- Finding a decision, code snippet, or error from a past session
- Cross-referencing what was said vs what's in MEMORY.md
Tips
- Also check
memory_searchfirst — it indexes session transcripts too - Combine both:
memory_searchfor semantic matching,search_sessions.pyfor keyword/exact matching - The script searches user AND assistant messages
- JSONL path format:
~/.openclaw/agents/{agent_id}/sessions/{session_uuid}.jsonl
