Hister – A private, full content search index that you control
Keep useful pages close, searchable, and under your control...
A private index makes the things you already found useful again.
Look beyond titles and URLs to the words inside every indexed document.
Use fields, phrases, wildcards, negation, priorities, and your own aliases.
Open a clean stored preview beside the results without losing your search.
Save newly visited pages with the browser extension, watch local folders, import your history, or crawl a site.
Hister extracts the parts that matter and indexes their full text on the server you choose.
Search from the web, terminal, command line, or let an AI assistant retrieve it through MCP.
The server does not phone home or report what you search.
A complete personal setup can run on one local machine.
