Chat history folder

[litecode]

Hi @rudeevelops ,

Hopefully someone can give you a more satisfying/useful answer, but in previous posts on the topic of exporting chat history, I have seen this post referred to, which refers to a location where chat history is saved:

[Guide][5 steps] Exporting chats & prompts from Cursor

Go to workspaceStorage. (On Windows, cd %APPDATA%\Cursor\User\workspaceStorage) You will see a list of folders whose names are md5 hashes. Open each of them. datasette state.vscdb Visit “http://localhost:8001/state?” in a browser and enter this query: SELECT rowid, [key], value FROM ItemTable WHERE [key] IN (‘aiService.prompts’, ‘workbench.panel.aichat.view.aichat.chatdata’) Parse the json based on your use case.

In response to that post, one user asked if there was a way to move data from one computer to another but hasn’t received a response yet:

[Guide][5 steps] Exporting chats & prompts from Cursor

Is there a simple way to import to the db file on another computer/folder?

Another user has put up a GitHub Repo that has this explanation:

Cursor’s chat history is stored in sqlite3 databases using state.vscdb files. One such file is for one workspace. All the chats for a workspace are saved here in so called tabs , one tab means a single chat.

Their post announcing the repo is here:

Exporting and Renaming "Chats"

Until Cursor has implemented the chat export, here’s a solution: Disclaimer: I wrote this repo.

For reference, the Cursor team have noted the ‘export chat history’ feature request:

How do I export chat with AI?

No way right now, but noted as a feature request!

Exporting and Renaming "Chats"

That’s a good suggestion. I’ll note it down.
