🚀 Quick Start

1. Install

npm install broccolidb

2. Initialize (CLI)

# Index your codebase and build the context graph
npx broccolidb init

3. Use in Code

import { Connection, Workspace } from 'broccolidb';

const conn = new Connection({ dbPath: './broccolidb.db' });
const pool = conn.getPool();

// High-speed, memory-first push
await pool.push({
  type: 'insert',
  table: 'thoughts',
  values: { content: 'Thinking about the future...', timestamp: Date.now() }
});

🧠 The Sovereign Mind Strategy

BroccoliDB was built to solve the Persistence Latency Bottleneck that cripples modern AI agents.

The Brain vs. Notebook Analogy

Traditional database drivers require you to write down every thought in a notebook before you can have the next one. This creates massive latency for high-frequency reasoning.

BroccoliDB separates these into two sovereign layers:

• 🧠 Layer 1: The Brain (RAM): You think at 4,400,000 thoughts per second. This is real-time, in-memory cognition.
• 💾 Layer 2: The Notebook (SQLite): Every few hundred milliseconds (the Persistence Event Horizon), the Brain writes a summary of its conclusions to the notebook.

🏗️ Architecture Overview

BroccoliDB acts as the high-speed interface between your code and the persistence layer.

🛡️ Deep Technical Hardening

BroccoliDB automatically configures SQLite for maximum performance and stability:

• Journal Mode: WAL: Enables non-blocking concurrent readers and writers.
• Synchronous: NORMAL: The optimal balance for high-throughput applications.
• Temp Store: MEMORY: Keeps temporary processing off the disk.
• MMap Size: 2GB: Maps the database directly into memory for lightning-fast reads.
• Thread Count: 4: Optimized for multi-core Node.js environments.
