 "repo_slug": "asymptote-labs-agent-beacon",
 "title": "Replay exactly what your coding agent did",
 "page_title": "How to replay exactly what your coding agent did with Agent Beacon",
 "summary": "Open one trace per session with prompts, tool calls, commands, edits, approvals, MCP activity and tokens.",
 "who": "A developer whose agent changed files overnight and who wants to see every command and approval before merging.",
 "problem": "Agent sessions vanish when they end, and each tool keeps its own partial, proprietary history.",
 "outcome": "A local, read-only replay of each session across harnesses, plus the raw JSONL to search yourself.",
 "steps": [
  "Install Beacon and run `beacon endpoint install`, choosing Local",
  "Run your agent as usual in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another supported harness",
  "Run `beacon traces` to browse traces, event timelines, token usage and retained content in the terminal; nothing is sent anywhere",
  "Run `beacon endpoint dashboard` for the local web view and open a session's lenses, such as files changed with diffs or an itemized token bill",
  "Read or grep the raw event stream in ~/.beacon/endpoint/logs/runtime.jsonl"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using Asymptote-Labs/agent-beacon on this machine, open the trace for my last <harness> session with `beacon traces` and list every command it ran, every file it edited and every approval, with total tokens. Verify the counts against ~/.beacon/endpoint/logs/runtime.jsonl.",
 "agents": [
  "claude-code",
  "codex",
  "cursor"

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "20 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Coverage differs by harness: for example, Codex CLI does not report file activity and Cursor does not report tokens in the support table.",

 "tags": [
  "Software and DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "go",
 "requirements": [
  "macOS with Homebrew, Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL, Rocky or Alma, as .deb or .rpm) or Windows x64 (MSI)",
  "At least one supported harness, such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor or OpenCode",
  "A beacon.sh sign-in only if you choose Beacon Cloud; Local needs no account",
  "For forwarding: an existing destination such as Splunk HEC, Datadog, Elastic, Microsoft Sentinel or an S3 or GCS bucket"
