illustrative. exact cli surface lives in the repo.

// the idea

for agentic platforms. the logs, traces and outputs your agents spit out are short-lived by nature. ephemera gives them a short-lived home. works with platforms like hermes.
short-lived by default. every artifact carries a ttl. when it lapses, it's gone. no dashboard graveyard.
read-only viewer. syntax highlighting, line anchors, raw download. paste-and-share, not a wiki.
self-hosted, full stop. one small service on your box, your link, your retention. no accounts, no tiers, no hosted version to lock you in.

view on github self-hosted only. no saas, by design.
