⌘ Who left the agents running?

ai9s is a terminal UI for the AI coding sessions already on your machine. It indexes them locally, then lets you search, preview, filter, resume, and — where it is safe — delete them.

The list works like a cluster browser: a hotkey menu, a crumbs bar, and one framed table. d describes the selected row. Ctrl-D deletes. Colors and plugins live in a config file, the same way k9s does. Nothing is uploaded.

brew tap AymanZahran/ai9s https://github.com/AymanZahran/ai9s
brew trust aymanzahran/ai9s
brew install ai9s

Source and go install are on the install page. Building from source requires Go 1.25 or newer.

▣ Features

• Sessions at your fingertips
  • Claude, Codex, Copilot CLI, Grok, Antigravity, Gemini CLI, Cursor, OpenCode, Hermes, OpenClaw, Junie, Jules, Goose, Cline, Aider, and Kiro.
• The directory you start in
  • A project directory lists sessions in that directory and its subdirectories. Your home directory lists every session.
• Keyboard first
  • Hotkeys stay on the top row. / edits the filter. : opens views and filter tokens. ? opens a scrollable manual.
• Five views
  • 1 through 5 switch sessions, providers, directories, branches, and models. Branches shows the git branch and the worktree. Enter on a group applies that filter.
• Preview you can actually read
  • d replaces the list with the excerpt. j and k scroll it. Esc returns to the list. Ctrl-D deletes.
• Resume in the original directory
  • Enter runs that agent's own CLI. --yolo adds an approval flag only when the agent documents one.
• Delete only when one file, one directory, or one CLI call is enough
  • Grok, Gemini, Jules, and Kiro stay read-only. The preview says why.
• A local index
  • SQLite under your cache directory. Files are skipped when their modification time has not changed. One agent failing does not drop the others.
• Metadata when the agent recorded it
  • Context size, window, tokens, cache, reasoning, cost, and premium requests. The CTX column is the latest prompt size, not a sum of every turn.
