Show HN: Create flashcards with Space CLI

· ai · Source ↗

TLDR

  • Space CLI lets any LLM (Claude, ChatGPT, Ollama) pipe into Space app flashcard decks via shell commands, with no API keys or cloud login required.

Key Takeaways

  • Install via Homebrew, curl, or manual binary; CLI reads the Space app’s local SQLite database directly – no separate auth.
  • Core commands cover deck list, deck stats, card search, deck export (JSON/CSV), with full CRUD across deck, card, and group subcommands.
  • Piping deck export --format json into an LLM enables bulk analysis: spotting confusing word pairs, generating mnemonics, deriving follow-up cards.
  • Local model support (Ollama, LM Studio) means zero data leaves the machine; syncing back to mobile/desktop happens through the Space app automatically.
  • Cards created in CLI sync to all devices via the Space app’s existing sync layer – no manual import/export step.
