segundo（segundo 命令行）

segundo CLI

A zero-friction second brain CLI. Captures thoughts as daily markdown journals with tags and semantic search. Built with TypeScript, runs on Bun.

Run segundo --help for usage details.

Workflow

1. Init - Create a brain first with segundo init
2. Capture - Add thoughts with segundo add "thought"
3. Retrieve - Search or list memories

Commands

init

segundo init
segundo init --reindex   # Rebuild embedding index

add

segundo add "read Designing Data-Intensive Applications" --tag book
segundo add "line one\
line two"
segundo add "thought one" "thought two" "thought three"   # batch
echo "thought from pipe" | segundo add                     # stdin
cat notes.txt | segundo add --batch                        # split on blank lines

search

segundo search "restaurant"
segundo search "data" --limit 5 --from 2026-01-01

Uses semantic search when an embedding provider is configured, falls back to text search otherwise.

segundo list --tag book
segundo list --from 2026-03-01 --to 2026-03-10

edit

stats

segundo stats

Shows total memory count, date range, top tags, embedding index size, and brain path.

Tags

Tags go on the last line of an entry. Add via --tag flag or inline:

segundo add "great chapter on consistency\
#book #engineering"
segundo add "lunch spot" --tag food

Filtering

All list/search/export commands support:

• --tag <name> - filter by tag
• --from <DATE> - start date (inclusive)
• --to <DATE> - end date (inclusive)
• --limit <N> - max results

Profiles

segundo --profile work add "quarterly review notes"
segundo --profile personal list
segundo --brain /custom/path list

JSON Output

All commands support --json for structured output:

segundo list --json
segundo add "thought" --json
segundo search "query" --json

Storage

Memories live in ~/.segundo/memories/ as daily markdown files:

~/.segundo/
  config.json
  memories/
    2026-03-10.md
  embeddings/
    index.bin
    meta.json

Semantic Search Setup

Configure in ~/.segundo/config.json:

{
  "embeddings": {
    "provider": "ollama",
    "model": "nomic-embed-text",
    "ollamaUrl": "http://localhost:11434"
  }
}

Supports Ollama (local, free) and OpenAI (cloud, requires openaiApiKey or $OPENAI_API_KEY).
