history_export

x47 automatically saves all your prompts and outputs. Browse your history, search past runs, and export data for backup or analysis.

how_history_works

Every time you run a prompt, x47 automatically saves:

  • The compiled system and user prompts
  • Variable values used
  • Model outputs from all selected models
  • Model settings (creativity, length, etc.)
  • Timestamp of the run

History is stored in your browser's localStorage with a maximum of 1000 entries. Older entries are automatically removed when this limit is reached.

accessing_history

1

Open history sidebar

Click the history icon in the console header, or press Ctrl+H to open the history sidebar.

2

Browse entries

History entries are listed chronologically with the most recent first. Each entry shows the prompt preview, model used, and timestamp.

3

Load a previous run

Click on any history entry to load it into the current tab. This restores the prompt, variables, and settings from that run.

searching_history

Use the search bar at the top of the history sidebar to filter entries. You can search by:

Prompt content

Search for keywords in system or user prompts

Model name

Filter by model (e.g., "gpt", "claude", "gemini")

Output content

Search within model outputs

Variable values

Find runs with specific variable content

exporting_data

Export your data for backup, analysis, or migration to another browser:

Export history

Click the "Export" button in the history sidebar to download all history entries as a JSON file. This includes prompts, outputs, settings, and timestamps.

Export prompt chains

Export individual prompt chains from the chain panel. Useful for sharing workflows with colleagues.

export_format

Exported history is a JSON file with this structure:

{
  "entries": [
    {
      "id": "unique-id",
      "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z",
      "modelId": "openai:gpt-5.1",
      "compiledPrompts": {
        "system": "You are a helpful assistant.",
        "user": "Explain quantum computing."
      },
      "output": "Quantum computing is...",
      "settings": {
        "creativity": 0.7,
        "responseLength": "medium",
        "outputFormat": "free_text"
      },
      "variables": {
        "topic": "quantum computing"
      }
    }
  ],
  "exportedAt": "2025-01-15T12:00:00Z",
  "version": "1.0"
}

data_management

Clearing history

To clear all history, use the "Clear History" button in the history sidebar. This action cannot be undone - consider exporting first.

Deleting individual entries

Hover over a history entry and click the delete icon to remove individual entries from your history.

Storage limits

localStorage typically has a 5-10MB limit per domain. With 1000 history entries maximum, you should rarely hit this limit. If you do, export and clear old history.

privacy

All history data is stored locally in your browser. It is never sent to x47 servers. Your prompts, outputs, and API keys remain entirely on your device.

limitations

Keep these limitations in mind:

  • Clearing browser data deletes all history
  • History doesn't sync across browsers or devices
  • Incognito/private mode doesn't persist history
  • Maximum 1000 entries (oldest auto-deleted)

tips

Regular backups

Export your history periodically, especially before clearing browser data or switching to a new computer.

Use descriptive prompts

Including descriptive text in your prompts makes them easier to find later when searching history.

Tab naming for organization

Name your tabs descriptively - this context is saved with history entries and helps identify runs later.
