Chronicle Beta is a local-first personal RAG memory system designed to turn your exported AI conversation history, such as from ChatGPT, into a fully searchable knowledge base. It ingests your conversations, chunks and embeds them into a local vector store (ChromaDB), and provides a retrieval interface via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). When connected to an LLM like Claude, it allows the LLM to semantically search your entire conversation history, retrieving relevant context, past decisions, code snippets, and ideas on demand. The system is built with privacy in mind, processing all data locally without cloud dependencies, telemetry, or API keys.
