Don't take our word for it.
Here's what developers are saying about SpecStory.
If you use Cursor, this extension is a MUST. It allows you to save your chat history & prompts. You can even reference past conversations with @ to ground conversations in prior interactions. I've enjoyed exchanging prompts w/friends already.
I wish I had known this before. I'm a huge fan of SpecStory now. It's a plugin that automatically converts your conversation histories, including tool calls and reasoning traces, into Markdown format.
I just figured out the workflow to make the best PRs you've ever seen with AI and it's almost zero effort. 1. Use git worktree 2. Make a new branch + folder for each piece of work 3. Use Cursor & specstory extension.
They're working on extracting information from the context you generate while using a coding agent. I believe the purpose is to work on the next something.
SpecStory is kind of like memory for cursor.
So I finished a week long 'add new feature to existing OSS codebase I was unfamiliar with' and I was working on writing a retro using SpecStory's dump of all composer chats.
Cursor's new export to markdown is great but you still need to remember to use it. Install @SpecStory and every chat autosaves itself, zero clicks, instant trail of your whole thought process.
Memory for Cursor (SpecStory) is really useful! This plugin auto-saves all my Cursor conversations as markdown files whenever I update context. One-click sharing, manual exports when needed, and data stays private.
A massive thank you to whoever created SpecStory!
Highly recommend specstory.com for cursor users
