Logbook

Claude Code forgets everything when you close it. Recall remembers. It runs on your machine. There is no server of ours to send it to.

Download Free. No account, no email, no licence key.

01Does it phone home?

No. There is no account, no sign-in, no licence check, and no server of ours anywhere. We did not build a place to put your work.

Check it yourself. Unzip it and run this inside the folder:

grep -rE "https?://" .

Or read every file in your browser — no download, no account, nobody watching you read it.

It prints every web address in a folder. On ours it prints nothing at all. Then go and run it on everything else you have installed.

02How to check any tool

Four things, five minutes, no programming. This works on any tool, not just ours.

1. What can it watch?

Open ~/.claude/settings.json and look for hooks. These are the ones that see the most:

Why a plugin can see so much

It has to reach things to be worth having. Ours does too, or it could not remember anything. This is how add-ons work everywhere — browser extensions, editor plugins, package managers. Claude Code is just where most people meet it, because right now it is the biggest door.

The gap is that nothing tells you who asked for what.

2. Can it change itself?

Look for autoUpdate. If it says true, it can replace its own code without asking. Something that sees everything and rewrites itself: you checked it the day you installed it, and that is not what is running now.

3. Where does your work go?

grep -rE "https?://" .

Documentation links are fine. A server you have never heard of is worth asking about, and "it's only anonymous usage data" is not an answer. If it left your machine, it left your machine.

4. Is it running right now?

Open your task manager, or type top. If something you installed is using memory and processor while you are not using it, find out why.

03What it costs to run

Memory tools usually run all the time, holding a search database in memory. That can mean gigabytes held and a slice of a processor core, all day — whether you are working or not.

That is not just "slow"

A program that never hands memory back only takes more. Eventually there is none left and the whole computer goes down — at random, mid-work, with nothing obvious to blame.

Recall does not run. Nothing in the background, nothing in memory. It wakes when you close a session, reads the transcript Claude Code already wrote, and stops.

04Your stuff

recall stats     what it has kept
recall health    is it working
recall signal    the last thing that broke

It strips tokens, keys and passwords out before writing anything down. To get rid of it all, delete the folder. That is the whole uninstall.

05If it breaks

We cannot fix what we do not know about. Recall does not report its own problems — that would mean phoning home. It shows you a short code instead, and you decide whether to send it. You see exactly what would go, before it goes.

06If you make one of these

Recall can import from other tools, and adding one is a small job at our end.

One tool out of a box

Recall is the memory. It comes out of Friday Team — a small box of tools that bolt onto Claude Code, each one running on hardware you own. If you are trying to:

that is what Friday Team is for. It is not out yet — it is on the way, and it holds the same line this page does: it runs on your machines and sends nothing to us. When it is ready, it will be here.
