magical shell history

English | 简体中文

Atuin replaces your existing shell history with a SQLite database, and records additional context for your commands. Additionally, it provides optional and fully encrypted synchronisation of your history between machines, via an Atuin server.

exit code, duration, time and command shown

As well as the search UI, it can do things like this:

# search for all successful `make` commands, recorded after 3pm yesterday
atuin search --exit 0 --after "yesterday 3pm" make

You may use either the server I host, or host your own! Or just don't use sync at all. As all history sync is encrypted, I couldn't access your data even if I wanted to. And I really don't want to.

Features

  • rebind ctrl-r and up (configurable) to a full screen history search UI
  • store shell history in a sqlite database
  • back up and sync encrypted shell history
  • the same history across terminals, across sessions, and across machines
  • log exit code, cwd, hostname, session, command duration, etc
  • calculate statistics such as "most used command"
  • old history file is not replaced
  • quick-jump to previous items with Alt-<num>
  • switch filter modes via ctrl-r; search history just from the current session, directory, or globally
  • enter to execute a command, tab to edit

Quickstart

This will sign you up for the Atuin Cloud sync server. Everything is end-to-end encrypted, so your secrets are safe!

Read more in the docs for an offline setup, self hosted server, and more.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -LsSf https://setup.atuin.sh | sh

atuin register -u <USERNAME> -e <EMAIL>
atuin import auto
atuin sync

Then restart your shell!

[!NOTE]

For Bash users: The above sets up bash-preexec for necessary hooks, but bash-preexec has limitations. For details, please see the Bash section of the shell plugin documentation.

Security

If you find any security issues, we'd appreciate it if you could alert ellie@atuin.sh
