Local-first AI knowledge base

Your notes. Your files. Your local AI.

CodexVault turns folders of notes and documents into a searchable local AI knowledge base. It converts supported files into clean Markdown, indexes them with SQLite, and answers questions with source citations.

Why CodexVault?

Local-first

Your files stay on your machine. CodexVault is designed around local folders, local search, and local AI.

Plain Markdown

The vault output is normal Markdown, so it stays portable and works with tools like Obsidian.

Citations by default

Answers include source references so users can inspect where information came from.

Safe write mode

CodexVault should never rewrite vault files automatically. Users review changes before writing.

Supported in v1.0.0

CodexVault currently supports .md, .txt, .pdf, and .docx ingestion, a FastAPI backend, a React frontend, SQLite search, and local AI answers through Ollama.

Status

CodexVault v1.0.0 is Windows-first. It is an early public release for people who are comfortable running a local Python and React app.
