EleSync

Your private AI workspace

EleSync gives you a private workspace that your AI tools can share.

When every AI assistant keeps a separate history, you repeat the same background, preferences, decisions, and project details over and over. EleSync keeps the durable context you choose in a local vault, then lets approved assistants use that context with explicit project and scope boundaries.

Start a project with one assistant, continue it with another, and keep the context in a folder you control.

Your local vault
      ↓
Memories and imported history
      ↓
Projects, knowledge, tasks, decisions, and handoffs
      ↓
Approved AI assistants

No EleSync account, hosted cloud database, e-mail registration, telemetry, subscription, or mandatory cloud sync is required.

The five-minute path

A new user should be able to go from installation to a useful AI workspace like this:

1. Choose a vault. Pick the local folder where EleSync will keep your workspace.
2. Protect access. Add a local dashboard username and password when you need remote or shared-device access.
3. Import AI history. Bring in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, WhatsApp, or other supported exports and review what will become durable context.
4. Create a project. Give your memories a purpose and a boundary.
5. Connect an assistant. Connect Claude Desktop locally, or use a secure HTTPS/OAuth flow for a remote assistant such as ChatGPT, Gemini, or Grok.
6. Test recall. Ask your assistant: What useful context can you retrieve from EleSync?

The dashboard includes a guided first-launch wizard and progress tracking for these steps.

What EleSync does

• Memory: gives assistants continuity across conversations and providers.
• Projects: give context purpose, organization, and boundaries.
• Knowledge: stores reusable knowledge sheets, tasks, decisions, and handoffs.
• MCP/connectors: let approved AI assistants participate in the workspace.
• Imports: bring existing AI history, documents, and WhatsApp conversations into one place.
• PWA/mobile: capture and access the workspace from a phone while your computer runs EleSync.
• Privacy: keeps the vault local-first and makes sharing explicit.

Important: when you connect an AI assistant, that assistant may read the context you make available to it. Use project boundaries, scopes, read-only permissions, and separate vaults when you need stronger limits.

Visual tour

The dashboard is the center of the workspace: memories, projects, imports, connection health, and mobile access are all reached from one place.

The product workflow is:

Area	What you use it for
Import	Upload ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, WhatsApp, JSON, CSV, Markdown, TXT, or ZIP exports.
Memories	Search, review, edit, and organize imported and saved context.
Projects	Collect memories, knowledge sheets, tasks, decisions, and handoffs.
Connect AI	Configure local Claude Desktop or secure remote AI connections.
Connection Health	See whether the vault, dashboard security, local clients, and remote setup are ready.
PWA/mobile	Capture text, links, and imports from a phone.

Privacy by design

• Local-first: notes and the search index live in the vault on your computer.
• User-controlled: you choose the vault folder, backups, and what becomes durable.
• No mandatory cloud account: normal local use works without an EleSync cloud service.
• Optional encryption: encrypted vaults use Argon2id and XSalsa20-Poly1305 at rest; plaintext remains the default for portability.
• Scoped AI access: client grants can limit which memory scopes an assistant can read or write.
• Project isolation: project-bound connections cannot recall or modify memories outside their project.
• Reviewable imports: imported conversations and WhatsApp messages can be reviewed before saving.

Install

Install EleSync from PyPI or use the standalone Windows and Linux downloads.

Python / pip

Requires Python 3.11 or newer. Once the release is published to PyPI:

python -m pip install --upgrade elesync
ele web

Use a virtual environment or pipx install elesync on systems with externally managed Python. For a local MCP client, the installed elesync command starts the stdio server. With uv, use uvx --from elesync elesync. The MCP Registry name is io.github.darknodebros/elesync.

Windows: easiest path

When a Windows installer is available, download EleSync-Setup.exe from the releases page, run it, and open EleSync.

The installer is not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC". Choose More info, then Run anyway.

The installer asks where to keep the vault and visibly lists the AI assistants available from Connect AI after installation:

ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini · Grok · Perplexity · Copilot · DeepSeek

Claude Desktop is the optional local connection that can be pre-wired during installation. Remote assistants require your authorization and a secure HTTPS connection, so the installer does not silently configure them.

Linux x86-64

Download EleSync-linux from the latest release. It is a standalone executable for Linux x86-64 with glibc 2.35 or newer (Ubuntu 22.04+, including compatible distributions). No Python installation is required. ARM64 and musl-based distributions such as Alpine are not supported by this binary.

chmod +x EleSync-linux
./EleSync-linux

The launcher opens the local dashboard in your browser. For terminal use, download ele-linux:

chmod +x ele-linux
./ele-linux --version
./ele-linux web

Verify downloads against the release's SHA256SUMS before running them. For example, in a folder containing both Linux executables and SHA256SUMS:

grep -E '  (ele-linux|EleSync-linux)$' SHA256SUMS | sha256sum --check

Standalone builds

Standalone Windows builds (the installer plus portable zips of the app and the ele command) are attached to each release in the repository, when available.

From source (Python)

For macOS, Linux, or users who prefer Python tooling, install from a clone of the repository:

git clone https://github.com/darknodebros/elesync.git
cd EleSync
pipx install .
ele web

Requires Python 3.11 or newer. You can also use pip install . inside the clone.

First import

From the dashboard:

1. Open Import.
2. Choose a supported file or drop it into the import area.
3. Review the detected format and privacy information.
4. For WhatsApp, filter by sender and approve only the messages you want to keep.
5. Save the full conversation or selected durable memories.
6. Open Memories to search what was imported.

Supported formats include:

JSON · CSV · TXT · Markdown · ZIP · WhatsApp exports · Grok exports

Imports are local. Nothing becomes durable project knowledge until the user saves or approves it.

First project

Open Projects, create a project, and give it a short purpose such as:

Japan trip planning
Product launch
Biology assignment
EleSync workspace

Inside a project you can:

• Add existing memories
• Save knowledge sheets
• Track tasks
• Record decisions
• Leave AI handoffs
• Set AI read/write/conversation permissions
• Generate a project-specific local Claude connection

First AI connection

Claude Desktop: local project connection

From a project page, choose the Claude provider and select Generate project connection. EleSync creates a command like:

ele --vault "D:\notes" onboard --target claude-desktop --project PROJECT_ID --name elesync-project-a1b2c3d4

Run the command, restart Claude Desktop, and use the entry named:

elesync-project-a1b2c3d4

This entry is project-bound. Memories saved through it are attached to the selected project. It can coexist with a general elesync entry; remove or disable the general entry when you need strict project-only visibility.

ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and other remote assistants

Remote assistants require a public HTTPS origin and provider authorization. Use the Connect AI page to generate the current setup instructions. EleSync will show:

• MCP server URL
• Secure authentication details
• Local server command
• Tunnel/reverse-proxy target
• Connection verification result

Do not use 127.0.0.1, a private LAN address, or the dashboard port as a public provider URL.

Mobile companion (PWA)

EleSync can be installed on a phone without a separate mobile app:

1. Start EleSync on your computer with ele web.
2. Open Use on another device in the dashboard.
3. Put your phone and computer on the same Wi-Fi network.
4. Open the displayed address on your phone.
5. Choose Add to Home Screen or Install app.

The computer must be running for live vault access. The PWA supports shared text and link capture, encrypted offline drafts, automatic retry, and mobile imports. Do not expose the dashboard publicly without HTTPS and a passcode.

Common commands

ele web                         # open the local dashboard
ele doctor                      # check installation health
ele import memories.json        # import exported memories or notes
echo "I prefer dark mode" | ele import -
ele remember "Prefer short answers with examples"
ele recall "how should my AI answer me?"
ele sync                        # rebuild the local search index
ele summary                     # show a vault summary

Advanced commands cover encryption, backups, USB vaults, scopes, conflict resolution, HTTP serving, and client wiring. See SETUP.md for the full walkthrough.

Troubleshooting

Run:

ele doctor

Common fixes:

• If the dashboard does not open, run ele web and copy the error.
• If an AI assistant cannot see memories, restart it after setup.
• If search looks stale, run ele sync.
• If an import looks wrong, keep the original export and check its source format.
• If a remote connector is rejected, verify HTTPS, the public /mcp URL, the tunnel target, and the authentication state in Connection Health.
