## What it is
trace.moe is an anime scene search engine that identifies which anime, episode, and exact timestamp a screenshot comes from. This repository is the index page for the multi-component system, including a web frontend, public API, Telegram bot, and browser extensions, all self-hostable via Docker.

## Use cases
- find which anime a screenshot is from
- get the exact timestamp of an anime scene
- identify anime episode from an image
- build a bot that looks up anime scenes from images
- self-host an anime image search service

## When to choose
- you need to trace anime screenshots back to their source scene and timestamp
- you want a public API or Telegram bot for anime scene lookup
- you want to self-host the full image search stack with Docker

## When to avoid
- you need general-purpose reverse image search beyond anime content
- you need a simple library to embed rather than a full service

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: active
- function: search-engine, image-processing, http-server, api-framework
- domain: image-processing, media
