Skate is a personal key-value store accessed from the command line, written in Go by Charmbracelet. It supports storing and retrieving text and binary data, with list filtering and multiple named databases.
Use cases
- store snippets from the terminal
- save key value pairs in a cli
- remember small bits of data across shell sessions
- store binary blobs like images from the command line
- pipe key value data into shell scripts
When to choose
- you want a simple, fast local key-value store for shell workflows
- you need to persist text or binary data without a full database
- you like Charm's terminal tooling ecosystem
When to avoid
- you need cloud sync between machines (removed as of v1.0.0)
- you need queries beyond simple key lookup and listing
- you need concurrent multi-user access or a network service
