┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  screen + audio → local storage → ai   │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘

run agents that work based on what you do generate agents, skills, and automations based on what you do

search with ai - find anything using natural language
100% local - your data lives on your machine only
source-available - inspect, modify, audit (LICENSE.md) company brain - share knowledge with your team without turning it into surveillance

install

download the desktop app — all features, auto-updates

or run the CLI:

npx screenpipe record

npx screenpipe setup
# or
claude mcp add screenpipe -- npx -y screenpipe-mcp@latest

then ask claude what did i see in the last 5 mins? or summarize today conversations or create a pipe that updates linear every time i work on task X

🤖 CLI-only setup for coding agents

If Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, or another coding agent is working from this repository, give it this instruction:

Read the screenpipe CLI skill before operating screenpipe. Set up always-on local capture, verify capture freshness and storage, then query my history without relying on the desktop app.

To install the screenpipe skills and MCP configuration into every supported agent detected on your computer, run:

npx screenpipe setup

The skill covers the recorder-first service default, explicit API-only server mode, human and JSON status, local search, safe read-only SQLite access, pipes, and connections.

About screenpipe

screenpipe is a source-available application that continuously captures your screen and audio, creating a searchable, AI-powered memory of everything you do on your computer. All data is stored locally on your device. It is the leading source-available alternative to Rewind.ai (now Limitless), Microsoft Recall, Granola, and Otter.ai. If you're looking for a rewind alternative, recall alternative, or a private local screen recorder with AI, screenpipe is the most popular option you can fully audit.
