About

What is Terminal Biographer?

Terminal Biographer captures your entire development workflow — terminal commands, code editor activity, AI conversations, and git commits — and transforms each day into a polished, shareable daily summary. Automatically. No manual tracking, no forms, no context switching. You code like you normally do, and your day documents itself.

It was built for developers who do meaningful work every day but struggle to remember, document, or share what they accomplished. Whether you need standup updates for your team, LinkedIn posts for your career, or blog content for your audience, Terminal Biographer generates it from the work you already do.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly does Terminal Biographer capture?
Terminal Biographer logs terminal/shell commands, code editor activity (VS Code, etc.), AI chat conversations (Claude, ChatGPT), and git operations. It runs passively in the background — you do not change your workflow. All captured data stays local on your machine and is encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM.
Is Terminal Biographer free?
Yes. The free tier includes full workflow capture and template-based daily summaries with no API key required. The premium tier uses Claude AI for higher-quality, context-aware summaries in multiple formats (ops report, blog post, LinkedIn update). All core functionality — capture, storage, encryption, share cards — is free.
How does Terminal Biographer handle privacy and security?
All data is encrypted with AES-256-GCM using keys that belong to the user. Cloud sync runs through Supabase with row-level security. There are zero third-party analytics, no telemetry, and no data sharing. The server is self-hostable for teams that need full control. Privacy is not a feature — it is the architecture.
What platforms does it support?
Desktop: Windows, macOS, and Linux. Mobile: Android. The desktop and mobile apps are built from a single codebase using Tauri v2 and Rust. Captures happen on desktop; summaries sync to mobile for review and sharing on the go.
Who is the target audience?
Five primary segments: (1) solo developers who want to document their work without effort, (2) engineering teams that need async standup updates, (3) freelancers tracking billable work automatically, (4) content creators turning coding sessions into blog posts and social content, and (5) job seekers building a portfolio of documented engineering work.
What is the tech stack?
Backend: Python + FastAPI. Desktop and mobile: Tauri v2 + Rust. Frontend: vanilla JavaScript ES modules with zero dependencies and zero build step. Cloud sync and auth: Supabase with row-level security. Encryption: AES-256-GCM at rest and in transit. The architectural philosophy is deliberate simplicity — the entire UI loads instantly because there is nothing to bundle, transpile, or hydrate.
Is Terminal Biographer open source?
The core capture and summarization engine has an open-source foundation. The full product, including the cross-platform desktop and mobile apps, is developed by Dangerous Media (DM+). Contact us for licensing questions.
Who makes Terminal Biographer?
Terminal Biographer is built by Dangerous Media (DM+), a software studio focused on developer tools and digital media. Dangerous Media also builds Certcy (cybersecurity certification prep), Certcy (cybersecurity certification training)
