What it does
File peepshow runs as pages inside a Logseq graph directory. Each page has top-level `key:: value` properties, a Run summary block tree, and a Frames block tree with image embeds. Frames are copied into the graph's `assets/` directory by default so they render inline without extra setup.
When to reach for it
- Knowledge-graph workflow: every video becomes a page with queryable properties
- Offline / mobile graphs: frames copied into the graph travel with the vault
- Tags like `director` and `studio` become first-class graph properties
Install
npm i -g peepshowUse it
LOGSEQ_GRAPH_DIR=~/logseq/brain \
peepshow ./clip.mp4 --sink logseqMake it automatic
Register the sink once — every run fires it afterward. Scope by --when so it only runs for matching videos.
peepshow sinks add logseq
peepshow sinks add logseq --when extension=mp4,mov
peepshow sinks add logseq --when path=/Volumes/Work/Configuration
LOGSEQ_GRAPH_DIRAbsolute path to the Logseq graph directory. requiredLOGSEQ_SUBDIRSubfolder under `pages/`. Default `peepshow`.LOGSEQ_COPY`0` / `no` / `false` keeps frames outside the graph.
Use with an LLM agent
Every peepshow sink reads its config from env vars and receives a single JSON payload on stdin. An LLM agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini, Codex) can drive the Logseq sink automatically when three things are true:
- the env vars below are exported in the agent's shell (or a project
.envit can load), - the
peepshowCLI is onPATH— install withnpm i -g peepshow, - a peepshow auto-sink is registered for the run (optional but recommended — makes invocation zero-argument).
1. Set the environment
# Add to ~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc, or a project .env the agent can load
export LOGSEQ_GRAPH_DIR="..."2. Register as an auto-sink
peepshow sinks add logseq
peepshow sinks add logseq --when extension=mp4,mov3. Example LLM session
You → drop a
.movinto Claude Code.Claude → auto-invokes
/peepshow:slides ./clip.mov. peepshow extracts frames + audio, theLogseqsink forwards the run to a new page in your knowledge base. Claude replies with a summary and a link to the created record.
The transcript text is embedded alongside the frame gallery on the created page.
Write your own
A sink is any executable that reads the --emit json payload on stdin. Shell, Node, Python, Go — the spec's in docs/PLUGINS.md. Register persistent ones with peepshow sinks add-cmd 'your-command'.
