deja-vu skips the new-memory-format pitch and reads the session logs Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and dozens of other tools already write.
Why now: The project tagged v0.20.2 on September 18 and pushed a nightly build the morning of September 20.
deja-vu builds one shared memory across 33 coding agents, and it does it without asking anyone to change how they work. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot CLI, OpenClaw and the rest already write session logs as a side effect of running. deja-vu reads those logs and reconstructs a memory the tools can share, instead of shipping a new store you'd have to feed by hand.
That matters most for anyone who switches tools mid-project. Right now, context built up in a Claude Code session doesn't carry into Cursor or Codex unless you copy it over yourself. deja-vu's bet is that plugging into 33 tools at once beats asking any one team to change its logging format.
Cross-vendor memory tools have a track record problem. Prior projects have died asking developers to adopt a new format before delivering anything back. deja-vu skips that step: if a tool already logs its sessions, which most of them do, there's nothing to opt into.
The project is MIT licensed and has picked up 878 stars since going up on July 14, which is real interest but not proof the reconstruction holds up three months and a dozen tool-switches into a real project.
The open question is fidelity. Session logs weren't designed to be a memory store. They're incidental output, and whatever deja-vu extracts from them is only as good as what each tool happened to write down. Whether it holds context across a tool that logs sparsely versus one that logs everything will decide if this works for a given stack or just the tools it was built against first.

I check Product Hunt maybe once a week and usually regret it. Today's board is worth reading as market structure. The July 30 leaderboard: SKI at 277 upvotes (free voice input for Claude Code and Codex). AI Search Console at 249 (prompt analytics and citation mapping). Memmy A...
A local-first observability dashboard that tails agent session files to show plans, tool calls, file changes and progress in real time across three different coding agents, MIT-licensed, still being pushed today (GitHub). It's the only repo carrying the agent-observability top...
Triple-stream retrieval (BM25 keyword, vector embeddings, knowledge-graph traversal) fused via Reciprocal Rank Fusion on the iii engine, with SQLite for state and an in-memory vector index, no external database. The economic claim: ~170K tokens/year (~$10) versus ~650K tokens...
affaan-m/ECC (36.3k forks, MIT) bundles 67 agents, 284 skills, 94 legacy command shims, and "instincts", patterns learned from prior sessions with confidence scores that auto-recall when relevant, plus a .ecc/memory/ markdown vault that's explicitly cross-harness, so context s...
bradautomates/claude-video (v0.2.0, July 1) lets agents download, frame-extract, and transcribe any video via yt-dlp, ffmpeg, and Whisper, then hand it to Claude's multimodal Read (GitHub). It ships as an Agent Skill usable across 50+ agents: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini...
BrowserSkill is an MIT-licensed CLI plus browser extension letting Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw, Pi and any shell-capable agent drive your real Chrome profile instead of a blank headless browser, so cookies and login state are already present and tasks run in a separat...
