Can I search for sessions in languages other than English?

Yes, the skill includes logic to expand search terms into both English and Korean variants to ensure comprehensive results.

Is my session data uploaded to a server for searching?

No, all searches are performed locally on your machine within your .claude directory, ensuring your conversation history remains private.

Do I need any additional software to use this skill?

Yes, this skill requires 'jq' (a command-line JSON processor) to be installed on your system to parse the structured session files.

Where does the Session Search skill look for history?

The skill searches the local directory at ~/.claude/projects/ where Claude Code stores all project-specific session data in JSONL format.
