Atuin is a Rust CLI tool that replaces shell history with a SQLite database, recording rich context like exit code, duration, cwd, and hostname. It offers a full-screen interactive history search UI and optional end-to-end encrypted history sync across machines, with a self-hostable sync server.
Use cases
- search shell history interactively with ctrl-r
- sync shell history between machines encrypted
- find commands by exit code, directory, or duration
- back up shell history
- calculate shell command usage statistics
- share history across terminal sessions
When to choose
- you want richer, searchable shell history than ctrl-r in bash/zsh/fish
- you need history synced across machines with end-to-end encryption
- you want to self-host your history sync server
When to avoid
- you only need a simple history file and don't want a SQLite dependency
- you cannot install shell integrations or modify your shell config
