Dashboard

Somtum includes a local web dashboard for browsing and managing your memories visually.

The dashboard uses a GitHub-style dark theme (Inter font, #0d1117 background, #2f81f7 accent) and is designed to be readable at all zoom levels — minimum font size 11px, body text 14px.

Starting the dashboard

somtum serve
# Opens http://localhost:3000

Press Ctrl-C to stop.

Flags

Flag	Default	Description
--port <n>	3000	Listen on a custom port
--no-open	—	Start server without opening the browser

Memory browser

A searchable, filterable list of all captured observations. You can:

• Switch between BM25, hybrid, and embeddings retrieval strategies live
• Filter by kind (decision, bugfix, learning, etc.)
• Click any memory to see its full body, associated files, and tags

Knowledge graph

Nodes are memories; edges connect memories that share files or tags. Click a node to open it in the detail panel. Useful for seeing clusters of related decisions and learnings.

Analytics

• Kind breakdown (how many decisions vs bugfixes vs learnings)
• Cache hit rate over time
• Retrieval strategy usage

Forget button

Soft-delete any memory directly from the browser. Deleted memories can be recovered with:

Or hard-deleted permanently with:

somtum purge --older-than 0d
