Extracts and analyzes Cursor IDE chat history to identify key discoveries, obstacles, and solutions, saving findings to the journal.

Chat History Analyzer | OpenClaw Skill

Extracts chat history from Cursor IDE's local SQLite databases, analyzes the last hour of conversations for key discoveries, obstacles, and solutions, and saves structured findings to the OpenClaw journal directory.

Usage

• As a scheduled cron job to continuously track insights from chat history
• Manually to analyze recent chat activity
• To identify recurring patterns, problems, or solutions in your workflow

# Combined log and chat history analysis (for cron jobs)
python3 /Users/ghost/.openclaw/workspace/skills/chat-history-analyzer/scripts/analyze_logs.py

# Analyze last hour of chat history only
python3 /Users/ghost/.openclaw/workspace/skills/chat-history-analyzer/scripts/chat_history_analyzer.py

# Analyze last 2 hours
python3 /Users/ghost/.openclaw/workspace/skills/chat-history-analyzer/scripts/chat_history_analyzer.py --hours 2

# Output JSON format
python3 /Users/ghost/.openclaw/workspace/skills/chat-history-analyzer/scripts/analyze_logs.py --json

What this skill does

• Extracts chat history from Cursor's SQLite databases (global and workspace-specific)
• Analyzes the last hour of messages for patterns indicating discoveries, obstacles, and solutions
• Saves structured findings to /Users/ghost/.openclaw/journal/ as markdown files
• Runs automatically via cron job every hour

Integration as a Cron Job

This skill is designed to run hourly via OpenClaw cron. The analyze_logs.py script combines both log analysis and chat history analysis.

Example Cron Job Configuration:

{
  "payload": {
    "kind": "agentTurn",
    "message": "Run analyze_logs.py script to analyze the last hour of logs and Cursor chat history, saving findings to journal.",
    "model": "openrouter/google/gemini-2.5-flash",
    "thinking": "low",
    "timeoutSeconds": 180
  },
  "schedule": {
    "kind": "cron",
    "cron": "0 * * * *"
  },
  "delivery": {
    "mode": "announce"
  },
  "sessionTarget": "isolated",
  "name": "Chat History & Log Analysis"
}

Or run directly via shell script:

# Add to crontab (crontab -e)
# Run every hour at minute 0
0 * * * * /Users/ghost/.openclaw/workspace/skills/chat-history-analyzer/scripts/analyze_logs.py --json >> /Users/ghost/.openclaw/logs/analyze_logs.log 2>&1

Output Format

Findings are saved to /Users/ghost/.openclaw/journal/chat_analysis_YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS.md with sections for:

• Key Discoveries: Successful findings, realizations, and implementations
• Obstacles Encountered: Errors, failures, and blockers
• Solutions Found: Fixes, workarounds, and resolutions
