Shelley stores conversation history in a SQLite database.
First, locate the database:
DB="${SHELLEY_DB:-$HOME/.config/shelley/shelley.db}"
sqlite3 "$DB" "SELECT conversation_id, slug, datetime(created_at, 'localtime') as created, datetime(updated_at, 'localtime') as updated FROM conversations ORDER BY updated_at DESC LIMIT 20;"
Replace CONVERSATION_ID with the actual ID:
sqlite3 "$DB" "SELECT CASE type WHEN 'user' THEN 'User' ELSE 'Agent' END, substr(json_extract(llm_data, '$.Content[0].Text'), 1, 500) FROM messages WHERE conversation_id='CONVERSATION_ID' AND type IN ('user', 'agent') AND json_extract(llm_data, '$.Content[0].Type') = 2 AND json_extract(llm_data, '$.Content[0].Text') != '' ORDER BY sequence_id;"
sqlite3 "$DB" "SELECT conversation_id, slug FROM conversations WHERE slug LIKE '%SEARCH_TERM%';"
Use when the user wants to customize Shelley by injecting behavior at lifecycle events. It documents Shelley's hooks.
Use when the user asks for a diagram, sketch, flowchart, architecture diagram, sequence diagram, mind map, or other visual explanation. Renders hand-drawn-style diagrams from Excalidraw JSON via the output_iframe tool.
Use to discover external services and APIs available on this exe.dev VM via network-edge-injected credentials and to discover VM metadata like owner email, VM tags, and default port.
Use when the user needs Node.js or npm installed, or is running a JS framework dev server (Next.js, Vite, webpack, etc.) on an exe.dev VM — especially if the browser logs 'WebSocket ... failed', or the dev server complains about cross-origin requests, allowedDevOrigins, or allowedHosts.
Use when a user requests a task to be done later or on a schedule.
