magical shell history
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.
- rebind
ctrl-randup(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
Atuin supports zsh, bash, fish, nushell, xonsh, and PowerShell. See Supported platforms for the full matrix and what each tier means.

This will sign you up for the Atuin Cloud sync server. Everything is end-to-end encrypted, so your secrets are safe!
Read 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.
Please open a PR for any others!
