FAQPage Schema

How do I capture thoughts and content into a knowledge base from the command line?▼

Captured content is immediately queryable within your brain repository. Once you ingest data via the command line, it is available for search and retrieval without delay.

Can I use the thought capture CLI on a thin-client installation?▼

The system uses 24-hour content hash deduplication to avoid redundant captures. By checking the content hash, it ensures you do not save duplicate thoughts or data within a 24-hour window.

What is the best way to avoid duplicate content when saving to a brain repository?▼

The best way to avoid duplicates is using the built-in content hash deduplication feature. It automatically checks a 24-hour content hash to prevent redundant saves during content ingestion.

Do I need a remote connection for secure content ingestion with the capture command?▼

No, the CLI trusts all local captures by setting remote to false. This local-CLI trust mechanism ensures secure ingestion without needing an active remote server connection.
