screenpipe for developers - Screenpipe

screenpipe gives developers a superpower: AI that knows what you've been working on. it captures your screen and audio 24/7 and makes it available to coding assistants via MCP and REST API.

what developers use screenpipe for

code search across time — find that code snippet you saw in a PR review last week, even if you closed the tab
meeting recall — search what was said in standups, design reviews, or pair programming sessions
context for AI coding — give Cursor, Claude Code, or Cline memory of what's on your screen right now and what you worked on earlier
automated workflows — pipes that auto-track time in Toggl, sync daily activity to Obsidian, or generate standup reports

integrations

screenpipe works with any AI tool that supports MCP or HTTP APIs:

tool	integration	guide
Claude Code	MCP server — Claude Code can search your screen history, find code you saw earlier, recall meeting context	setup guide
Cursor	MCP server — add screenpipe as a context source for Cursor's AI	setup guide
Cline	MCP server — give Cline access to your full screen history	setup guide
Continue	MCP server — add screen context to Continue's AI completions	setup guide

quick start

download screenpipe
add the MCP server to your coding tool:

json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "screenpipe": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "screenpipe-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

ask your AI assistant: "what was I working on in the last hour?" or "find the code snippet I saw in that PR review"

example prompts

once screenpipe is connected to your coding assistant:

"find the error message I saw in the terminal 30 minutes ago"
"what did we discuss in the standup about the auth refactor?"
"show me the API endpoint I was looking at in the browser"
"summarize what I worked on today for my standup"

automate with pipes

pipes are scheduled AI agents that run on your screen data. developers use them for:

time tracking — auto-log coding time to Toggl based on active apps
daily journals — sync screen activity to Obsidian
standup reports — generate daily summaries of what you worked on
