Getting started
Trove is a personal event journal: capture typed facts from the sources in your life, store them in one durable SQLite journal, and retrieve them conversationally via MCP.
Recommended path
New here? Start with Try in a day — a guided
afternoon experiment using built-in shortcut types and MCP query. You will install
Trove, post six typed events with curl, and search them back from Cursor.
