Our review

Queries the unified event stream for recent activity across all surfaces (CLI, iMessage, wake cycles, webhooks, etc.).

Strengths

  • Centralizes interaction history across multiple surfaces.
  • Easy filtering by surface (iMessage, CLI, webhooks, etc.).
  • Detailed JSON output for automated analysis.

Limitations

  • Requires the stream binary to be installed and configured.
  • Distilled events may be missed unless --include-distilled is used.
  • Limited to locally accessible data, no built-in cloud sync.
When to use it

When you need to quickly recall recent conversations or cross-surface activity.

When not to use it

For deep historical search or when the event stream is irrelevant.

Unified Event Stream Query

This skill provides on-demand access to the unified event stream - all interactions across all surfaces (CLI, iMessage, wake cycles, webhooks, social media, etc.).

When to Use

  • User asks "what happened on iMessage today?"
  • User asks "what did we talk about in CLI earlier?"
  • User wants to see recent cross-surface activity
  • User asks "show me the stream" or "recent activity"
  • You need detailed recall of specific surface interactions

Commands

Quick Overview (last N hours)

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 6

Filter by Surface

# iMessage only
~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 12 --surface imessage

# CLI only
~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 12 --surface cli

# Wake cycles
~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 24 --surface wake

# Dream cycles
~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 48 --surface dream

# Webhooks/social
~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 24 --surface webhook
~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 24 --surface x
~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 24 --surface bluesky

Statistics

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream stats

Detailed JSON Output

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 6 --format json

Include Already-Processed Events

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 24 --include-distilled

Surface Types

| Surface | Description | |---------|-------------| | cli | Direct Claude Code sessions | | imessage | iMessage conversations via Samara | | wake | Autonomous wake cycle events | | dream | Nightly dream cycle events | | webhook | External webhook triggers | | x | X/Twitter interactions | | bluesky | Bluesky interactions | | email | Email events | | calendar | Calendar events | | location | Location changes | | sense | Generic sense events | | system | Internal system events |

Output Interpretation

Each event shows:

  • Timestamp - When it occurred
  • Surface - Where it came from
  • Summary - Brief description
  • [distilled] - Already processed by dream cycle

Example Queries

"What did we talk about in iMessage today?"

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 12 --surface imessage

"Show me all recent activity"

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 6

"What happened in CLI sessions today?"

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 24 --surface cli

"Show me the raw event data"

~/.claude-mind/bin/stream query --hours 3 --format json | head -100

Presenting Results

When presenting stream results to the user:

  1. Summarize the activity by surface
  2. Highlight key conversations or events
  3. Note the timeline
  4. Connect to current context if relevant
