Frequently Asked Questions about memento

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I search my computer history for text I saw in a previous terminal session?▼

Memento captures and indexes your macOS user activity, including screenshots and keystrokes, to make past terminal text, error messages, and URLs locally searchable. You can query your indexed digital archive to recall previously encountered information.

Can I extract text from macOS screenshots to find an error message I saw earlier?▼

Yes, OCR technology extracts text from automatically captured macOS screenshots, making visual information searchable. This allows you to locate specific error messages or visual data that previously appeared on your screen.

Do I need special permissions to capture keystrokes and screen activity on macOS?▼

Capturing keystrokes and screen activity on macOS requires granting explicit screen recording and accessibility permissions. These system permissions allow the background process to log keystrokes with application context and automatically save screenshots.

What is the best way to reconstruct a digital workflow using local activity logs?▼

Reconstructing digital workflows is achieved by capturing keystrokes with application context and indexing OCR text locally. This creates a searchable history of your actions, enabling you to trace back steps and debug issues by finding exact commands or text.

Does this local searchability tool work without an internet connection?▼

Local searchability works without an internet connection because user activity, screenshots, and keystrokes are captured and indexed directly on your machine. This ensures your digital memory and history remain private and accessible offline at all times.
