Could you build this?
Partial Searching local transcript files from Claude/Cursor is simple, but tracking agent git lineage ('git blame for agent sessions') across multiple complex tool invocations requires deep AST/git diff tracking heuristics.
What it would actually take: The CLI requires Rust or Go to parse disparate local SQLite, JSONL, and session state files from Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot. The hard part is building the deterministic mapping between git patches/commit hashes and specific agent tool executions/prompts, requiring hook integration into git and agent environments.
