search-conversations
Search past Claude Code conversations. Use when user says "search conversations", "find that chat", "what did we discuss", "where did we talk about", "look up past session", "find conversation about X", "search history", "what did I ask about", "remember when we", "that discussion about". Also triggers on past-tense questions referencing prior work or possessives without context.
npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill search-conversations --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.

What does the search-conversations skill do?
Search past Claude Code conversations. Use when user says "search conversations", "find that chat", "what did we discuss", "where did we talk about", "look up past session", "find conversation about X", "search history", "what did I ask about", "remember when we", "that discussion about". Also triggers on past-tense questions referencing prior work or possessives without context.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill search-conversations --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
