Description
Feature Request: Personal Cold Storage Layer
Add --grab flag to attach files/directories to entries by zipping and moving to attachments/{id}.zip.
Use Cases
1. EVENTS (completed work archival):
- Invoices/receipts:
kaydet 'Sent invoice to client X' --grab invoice.pdf - Conference talks:
kaydet 'Spoke at PyConf' --grab slides.pdf - Research papers:
kaydet 'Read distributed systems paper' --grab paper.pdf - Screenshots:
kaydet 'Found UI bug' --grab screenshot.png
Benefit: Context + artifact in one place, searchable, tax/legal compliance
2. TODOS (deferred decisions):
- Download cleanup:
kaydet --todo 'Choose melody version' --grab v1.json v2.json - Paused projects:
kaydet --todo 'Resume parser experiment' --grab project/ - Config backups:
kaydet --todo 'Try new nvim config' --grab ~/.config/nvim/
Benefit: Workspace zen, reversible decisions
3. NOTES (reference material):
- Code snippets:
kaydet 'Error handling pattern' --grab example.py - Design files:
kaydet 'Logo concepts' --grab concepts/
Benefit: Personal cookbook, grep-able knowledge base
Commands
--grab file1 file2- Universal: works with entries/todos/notes--files ID- List archive contents + mime types (no unzip)--extract ID [PATH]- Retrieve to temp or specified location--open ID- Extract and open in default apps
Implementation Notes
- Disk efficient: 80% compression for text/JSON/code
- Atomic operations: single .zip file per entry
- Auto-delete prompt on
--done(for todos only) - Normal entries: attachments preserved forever (archival)
Vision
Transform kaydet into personal cold storage layer - like AWS Glacier but human-scale, local-first, context-rich.
