mnemo-cli 0.1.0

Local CLI tool for indexing and searching personal notes

mnemo | Local Notes Indexer

mnemo is a local CLI tool for indexing and searching personal notes.

It builds a searchable index of your notes and lets you quickly find and open relevant entries from the terminal.

Everything works locally.

Why mnemo

I keep notes in multiple apps over many years. Searching them efficiently became harder than writing new ones.

mnemo is a small CLI tool that solves this problem locally and predictab.

It works just fine for me.
