Now I have a clear picture. The pipes are markdown prompt templates in
/volume1/screenpipe/pipes/
, but there's no code to actually load and run them —
consumers/summary.py
has its own hardcoded prompts instead.
Here's what I'll implement:
consumers/pipes.py
— dynamically loads pipe.md files and runs them via Claude (data injected as system message, pipe body as user prompt)
main.py
— two new endpoints:
GET /api/pipes
and
POST /api/pipes/{pipe_id}/run
cli.py
— a
pipe
command to run pipes from the terminal
Let me build it:
Bash

Now I have a clear picture. The pipes are markdown prompt templates in
/volume1/screenpipe/pipes/
, but there's no code to actually load and run them —
consumers/summary.py
has its own hardcoded prompts instead.
Here's what I'll implement:
consumers/pipes.py
— dynamically loads pipe.md files and runs them via Claude (data injected as system message, pipe body as user prompt)
main.py
— two new endpoints:
GET /api/pipes
and
POST /api/pipes/{pipe_id}/run
cli.py
— a
pipe
command to run pipes from the terminal
Let me build it:
Bash

# screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.
#
# Usage
# -----
# On the NAS via SSH (recommended for archives > 1 GB):
# ssh Adm1n@[IP_ADDRESS]
# # copy this script over first, then:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /volume1/Test/screenpipe/archive.db
#
# On Mac (works but slower):
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
# # or with no arg to use the default Mac mount path:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh

# screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.
#
# Usage
# -----
# On the NAS via SSH (recommended for archives > 1 GB):
# ssh Adm1n@[IP_ADDRESS]
# # copy this script over first, then:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /volume1/Test/screenpipe/archive.db
#
# On Mac (works but slower):
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
# # or with no arg to use the default Mac mount path:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh

Now I have a clear picture. The pipes are markdown prompt templates in
/volume1/screenpipe/pipes/
, but there's no code to actually load and run them —
consumers/summary.py
has its own hardcoded prompts instead.
Here's what I'll implement:
consumers/pipes.py
— dynamically loads pipe.md files and runs them via Claude (data injected as system message, pipe body as user prompt)
main.py
— two new endpoints:
GET /api/pipes
and
POST /api/pipes/{pipe_id}/run
cli.py
— a
pipe
command to run pipes from the terminal
Let me build it:
Bash

How to run pipes
How to run pipes
Via Docker (inside the running container):
Copy code to clipboard
docker exec -it screenpipe-app python cli.py pipe --list
docker exec -it screenpipe-app python cli.py pipe day-recap
docker exec -it screenpipe-app python cli.py pipe standup-update --date yesterday
Via the API
(once the container is running on port 8766):
Copy code to clipboard
# List pipes
curl http://localhost:8766/api/pipes
# Run a pipe
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8766/api/pipes/day-recap/run"
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8766/api/pipes/standup-update/run?d=2026-04-25"
Rebuild and restart
to pick up the changes:
Copy code to clipboard
cd /volume1/screenpipe/app
docker compose up --build -d
How it works:
Each
pipe.md
file is loaded dynamically — the frontmatter provides metadata and the body becomes the user prompt. Screenpipe data (app usage, browser URLs, OCR, audio) is injected as a Claude system message so the pipe prompt can reference it naturally. The "Read screenpipe skill first" line is stripped automatically.
The pipes directory inside Docker is
/data/pipes
(since
/volume1/screenpipe
→
/data
). You can override it with a
PIPES_DIR
env var if needed.
Message actions
pipe.md
pipe.md
where to place api key and can I use different keys
Thinking
Thinking
Bash
Read .env file
IN
cat /volume1/screenpipe/app/.env
Copy code to clipboard
OUT
[ENV_SECRET]
Where to place the key:
app/.env
app/.env
— replace
your_key_here
with your actual key:
Copy code to clipboard
[ENV_SECRET]
That file is loaded by
load_dotenv()
at startup and is excluded from git via
.gitignore
.
Can you use different keys per pipe?
Not currently — all pipes share the one key from
.env
. But you can add per-pipe key support by adding an
api_key
field to the pipe's frontmatter:
Copy code to clipboard
---
title: Meeting Summary
api_key_env: ANTHROPIC_KEY_MEETINGS
---
Then in
consumers/pipes.py
consumers/pipes.py
, read it in
_parse_frontmatter
and pass it through
run_pipe
. Want me to add that?
Message actions
pipe.md
pipe.md
can I use mistral or other llm? or is is build for antrophic only
Thinking
Thinking
Currently it's Anthropic-only — the code calls the
anthropic
SDK directly in both
consumers/pipes.py
consumers/pipes.py
and
consumers/summary.py
consumers/summary.py
.
Adding other providers is straightforward since Mistral, Ollama, OpenRouter, Groq, and most modern LLMs expose an OpenAI-compatible API. The cleanest approach: add the
openai
package and let you configure the provider via
.env
:
Copy code to clipboard
# Anthropic (default)
[ENV_SECRET]
# OR: any OpenAI-compatible provider
LLM_PROVIDER=openai-compatible
LLM_BASE_URL=https://api.mistral.ai/v1
[ENV_SECRET]
LLM_MODEL=mistral-small-latest
This would cover Mistral, Ollama (...

# screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.

# screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.
#
# Usage
# -----
# On the NAS via SSH (recommended for archives > 1 GB):
# ssh Adm1n@[IP_ADDRESS]
# # copy this script over first, then:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /volume1/Test/screenpipe/archive.db
#
# On Mac (works but slower):
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
# # or with no arg to use the default Mac mount path:

Now I have a clear picture. The pipes are markdown prompt templates in
/volume1/screenpipe/pipes/
, but there's no code to actually load and run them —
consumers/summary.py
has its own hardcoded prompts instead.
Here's what I'll implement:
consumers/pipes.py
— dynamically loads pipe.md files and runs them via Claude (data injected as system message, pipe body as user prompt)
main.py
— two new endpoints:
GET /api/pipes
and
POST /api/pipes/{pipe_id}/run
cli.py
— a
pipe
command to run pipes from the terminal
Let me build it:

# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.

# screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.
#
# Usage
# -----
# On the NAS via SSH (recommended for archives > 1 GB):
# ssh Adm1n@[IP_ADDRESS]
# # copy this script over first, then:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /volume1/Test/screenpipe/archive.db
#
# On Mac (works but slower):
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
# # or with no arg to use the default Mac mount path:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh

Here's what I'll implement:

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync

Claude responded: You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over.
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:
Copy to clipboard
sql
SELECT
f
.
*
FROM
nas
.
frames f
JOIN
nas
.
frames_fts fts
ON
fts
.
install_id
=
f
.
install_id
AND
fts
.
source_id
=
f
.
id
WHERE
frames_fts
MATCH
'standup'
;
One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.
I also added
tags
and
vision_tags
to the sync (audio_tags already pulled them in by FK), and a small
_installs
registry table so you can list installs and their first-seen date.
To your meta-question —
yes, fixing this later would be painful
. FTS rebuild on a multi-GB archive is the expensive part, and if you waited until you actually had a reinstall, you'd also be missing data in FTS during the gap. Doing it now means one slow run today, then nothing to worry about....

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in

plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an

as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)

source_id

id
WHERE

'standup'
;
One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.
I also added
tags
and
vision_tags
to the sync (audio_tags already pulled them in by FK), and a small
_installs
registry table so you can list installs and their first-seen date.
To your meta-question —
yes, fixing this later would be painful
. FTS rebuild on a multi-GB archive is the expensive part, and if you waited until you actually had a reinstall, you'd also be missing data in FTS during the gap. Doing it now means one slow run today, then nothing to worry about.

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:
Copy to clipboard
sql
SELECT
f
.
*
FROM
nas
.
frames f
JOIN
nas
.
frames_fts fts
ON
fts
.
install_id
=
f
.
install_id
AND
fts
.
source_id
=
f
.
id
WHERE
frames_fts
MATCH
'standup'
;
One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.
I also added
tags
and
vision_tags
to the sync (audio_tags already pulled them in by FK), and a small
_installs
registry table so you can list installs and their first-seen date.
To your meta-question —
yes, fixing this later would be painful
. FTS rebuild on a multi-GB archive is the expensive part, and if you waited until you actually had a reinstall, you'd also be missing data in FTS during the gap. Doing it now means one slow run today, then nothing to worry about.

Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow.

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync

I don't like that. It should be solid without id collisions. Wouldn't it be to late if I should fix it later?

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:

I don't like that. It should be solid without id collisions. Wouldn't it be to late if I should fix it later?

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:
Copy to clipboard
sql
SELECT
f
.
*
FROM
nas
.
frames f
JOIN
nas
.
frames_fts fts
ON
fts
.
install_id
=
f
.
install_id
AND
fts
.
source_id
=
f
.
id
WHERE
frames_fts
MATCH
'standup'
;
One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.
I also added
tags
and
vision_tags
to the sync (audio_tags already pulled them in by FK), and a small
_installs
registry table so you can list installs and their first-seen date.
To your meta-question —
yes, fixing this later would be painful
. FTS rebuild on a multi-GB archive is the expensive part, and if you waited until you actually had a reinstall, you'd also be missing data in FTS during the gap. Doing it now means one slow run today, then nothing to worry about.

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with.

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in

audio_chunks

audio_transcriptions

audio_tags

Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.

the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db.

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:
Copy to clipboard
sql
SELECT
f
.
*
FROM
nas
.
frames f
JOIN
nas
.
frames_fts fts
ON
fts
.
install_id
=
f
.
install_id
AND
fts
.
source_id
=
f
.
id
WHERE
frames_fts
MATCH
'standup'
;
One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.
I also added
tags
and
vision_tags
to the sync (audio_tags already pulled them in by FK), and a small
_installs
registry table so you can list installs and their first-seen date.
To your meta-question —
yes, fixing this later would be painful
. FTS rebuild on a multi-GB archive is the expensive part, and if you waited until you actually had a reinstall, you'd also be missing data in FTS during the gap. Doing it now means one slow run today, then nothing to worry about.

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and

silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:

One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.

Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.

Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync

I don't like that. It should be solid without id collisions. Wouldn't it be to late if I should fix it later?

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id

(install_id, id)

Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync
Updated screenpipe_sync.sh with install_id support and audio sync

I don't like that. It should be solid without id collisions. Wouldn't it be to late if I should fix it later?

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:
Copy to clipboard
sql
SELECT
f
.
*
FROM
nas
.
frames f
JOIN
nas
.
frames_fts fts
ON
fts
.
install_id
=
f
.
install_id
AND
fts
.
source_id
=
f
.
id
WHERE
frames_fts
MATCH
'standup'
;
One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.
I also added
tags
and
vision_tags
to the sync (audio_tags already pulled them in by FK), and a small
_installs
registry table so you can list installs and their first-seen date.
To your meta-question —
yes, fixing this later would be painful
. FTS rebuild on a multi-GB archive is the expensive part, and if you waited until you actually had a reinstall, you'd also be missing data in FTS during the gap. Doing it now means one slow run today, then nothing to worry about.

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db.

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

Architected multi-install sync with audio support and retention
Good, that clarifies the audio layout — audio files live flat in
~/.screenpipe/data/
with the date in the filename (not in date subdirs like frames), and the schema gives us
audio_chunks
+
audio_transcriptions
+
speakers
+
speaker_embeddings
+
audio_tags
plus the FTS table on transcriptions.
Plan I'll implement:
install_id
: stored as a UUID in
~/.screenpipe/.sync_install_id
— disappears when the directory is wiped (which is what you want on reinstall). Every synced NAS table gets an
install_id TEXT
column and a
UNIQUE(install_id, id)
index. The script auto-migrates the existing NAS archive by adding the column and tagging legacy rows with
legacy-YYYYMMDD
so historical data is still queryable but doesn't conflict with future installs.
Audio sync
: adds
audio_chunks
,
audio_transcriptions
,
speakers
,
speaker_embeddings
,
audio_tags
to the sync pipeline, plus the
audio_transcriptions_fts
index. Audio files go to
$NAS_DATA/<date>/audio/
(sibling to the frames in the same date dir, keeps daily archives self-contained).
Retention
is a separate manual script — dry-run by default,
--apply
to delete. Hits DB rows, frame directories, audio mp4s, and screenpipe logs. Optional
--vacuum
with a warning (screenpipe must be stopped to avoid blocking writes for minutes).
One caveat I'm punting on: the FTS tables use source
id
as
rowid
, so after a reinstall they'd get id-collisions on insert and
INSERT OR IGNORE
would silently skip. Within a single install this is fine; after reinstall you'd fall back to
LIKE
queries on the base tables (still filterable by
install_id
). I noted this in the script. Fixing it properly needs a synthetic rowid scheme which we can do later if you actually hit it.
Let me write both:

Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
Architected collision-free FTS schema with contentless tables and install tracking
You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source
id
as that rowid (e.g.
INSERT INTO frames_fts(rowid, ...) VALUES (NEW.id, ...)
). After a reinstall, source IDs reset to 1, and
INSERT OR IGNORE
silently drops them because rowid=1 is already taken. So FTS would only index your most recent install — searching for old transcriptions or OCR text would miss anything from before the reinstall, and there's no way to detect the loss because it fails silently.
Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:
Copy to clipboard
sql
SELECT
f
.
*
FROM
nas
.
frames f
JOIN
nas
.
frames_fts fts
ON
fts
.
install_id
=
f
.
install_id
AND
fts
.
source_id
=
f
.
id
WHERE
frames_fts
MATCH
'standup'
;
One extra JOIN, but bulletproof.
Migration:
the script detects the old FTS schema on first run, drops + rebuilds the four FTS tables from the base tables. This is the only one-time slow step. After that, every run is normal. The base tables (with all your data) are untouched during the rebuild — only the FTS indexes get regenerated.
I also added
tags
and
vision_tags
to the sync (audio_tags already pulled them in by FK), and a small
_installs
registry table so you can list installs and their first-seen date.
To your meta-question —
yes, fixing this later would be painful
. FTS rebuild on a multi-GB archive is the expensive part, and if you waited until you actually had a reinstall, you'd also be missing data in FTS during the gap. Doing it now means one slow run today, then nothing to worry about.

Lets start from the beginning with the fresh mind. There is a script for screenpipe to copy data for day from mac to nas. There are two issues I want to work with. Firsts if I reinstall the mac version it starts from fresh id 1. That causes some issues. How to make sure the data are valid. I don't want some overcomplicated flow. I was thinking about making new db every 3 months. Secodn issue is that I wan to implement cleanup (retention policy) on mac original screenpipe db. I want script that will remove data that are 7 days old or older for example. ANd lastly I want to extedn the script to work with audio as well. What od you need

Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Analyzed three technical challenges and identified clarifying questions needed
Good plan to tackle these together — they interact (retention timing depends on sync timing, audio sync depends on schema shape, ID strategy depends on whether reinstalls have already happened). Before I touch the script, a few things:
Issue 1 — ID collisions / archive rotation
Has a reinstall already happened, or is the current
archive.db
still from one continuous install? If collisions already exist I need to handle that first; if not, we have a clean slate.
Quarterly rotation works, but it doesn't actually solve reinstalls
within
a quarter. A cleaner option that I'd lean toward: add an
install_id
column (UUID generated once and stored in a tiny
_meta
table in the source DB) to every synced table, and make
(install_id, id)
the logical key. FK joins just gain one extra predicate. Reinstall → new install_id → no collisions, ever. You can still rotate the archive DB quarterly for file-size reasons, but it's no longer load-bearing.
Do you ever run cross-period queries (e.g. "every frame mentioning JY-20458 across all time")? That answers whether quarterly sharding is acceptable or whether one growing DB is better.
Issue 2 — Mac-side retention
Your launch command already has
--retention-days 7
. Is that not actually deleting anything, or do you want a separate scripted retention you can trust/observe independently?
Should retention also wipe the matching
~/.screenpipe/data/data/YYYY-MM-DD/
folders, or only DB rows? (CLI flag does both I believe; a script should match.)
Run order matters: sync writes
yesterday
, retention deletes
>7 days old
— no overlap, but I'd still chain them (sync → retention → log) in one cron entry so a failed sync blocks the delete. OK with that?
Issue 3 — Audio
Your current launch flag is
--disable-audio
, so right now there's no audio data to sync. Are you planning to enable it, or is this just to future-proof the script?
I need the audio schema. Could you run this and paste the output:
Copy to clipboard
sqlite3 ~/.screenpipe/db.sqlite ".schema" | grep -iE -A 20 "audio|transcription"
And:
ls ~/.screenpipe/data/data/$(date -v-1d +%Y-%m-%d)/ | head
so I can see what audio files look like on disk alongside the mp4 frames.
Once I have those, I'll restructure the script in one go rather than piecemeal.

You're right — the FTS tables are the gap I papered over. Let me explain why and fix it properly.
What I missed:
SQLite FTS tables use an
INTEGER rowid
as their primary key. The previous design used the source

as that rowid (e.g.

Fix:
switch all four FTS tables to fully contentless mode with
install_id
and
source_id
as
UNINDEXED
columns, and let SQLite auto-assign rowids. No collision is possible because each insert gets a fresh rowid. Queries become:

# screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.
#
# Usage
# -----
# On the NAS via SSH (recommended for archives > 1 GB):
# ssh Adm1n@[IP_ADDRESS]
# # copy this script over first, then:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /volume1/Test/screenpipe/archive.db
#
# On Mac (works but slower):

# screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
# One-shot migration of the screenpipe NAS archive DB to the new schema:
# - adds install_id column to every synced base table
# - creates the _installs registry
# - rebuilds all four FTS tables as contentless with install_id + source_id
#
# This is OPTIONAL. screenpipe_sync.sh performs the same migration inline on
# its first run. The point of running this separately is SPEED: SQLite over
# SMB is slow due to fsync semantics, and the FTS rebuild reads every row
# of every base table. Running the rebuild locally on the NAS over SSH is
# typically 5-10x faster.
#
# Idempotent — safe to re-run. Detects the new schema and exits if already migrated.
#
# Usage
# -----
# On the NAS via SSH (recommended for archives > 1 GB):
# ssh Adm1n@[IP_ADDRESS]
# # copy this script over first, then:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /volume1/Test/screenpipe/archive.db
#
# On Mac (works but slower):
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh /Volumes/screenpipe/archive.db
# # or with no arg to use the default Mac mount path:
# ./screenpipe_fts_migrate.sh
