A terminal tool for Logseq journal entries

In plain words

lsq is a terminal tool that lets developers add quick notes to Logseq without leaving the command line. Built in Go, it works in both TUI and external editor modes, supporting Markdown and Org formats. It reads Logseq's configuration automatically, requires no setup beyond installation, and includes features like TODO and priority cycling directly in the terminal. The tool solves the workflow friction of switching between terminal and Logseq for rapid note-taking.

In the maker’s words, at launch

Creator here. I built lsq to solve a simple but annoying workflow problem: having to leave the terminal just to make quick notes in Logseq. Technical details: - Written in Go using Bubble Tea for the TUI - Reads Logseq's config.edn for format preferences - Supports both external editor ($EDITOR) and TUI modes - Handles both Markdown and Org formats Core design decisions: 1. Zero-config default installation (uses standard ~/Logseq path) 2. Single command to open today's journal (just 'lsq') 3. TUI mode for Logseq-specific features (TODO/priority cycling) The project started as a simple editor launcher but evolved to include a TUI when I realized certain Logseq features couldn't be easily replicated in a standard text editor. Code and installation instructions are in the repo. Feedback and contributions welcome.

    I wasn't quite sure if this qualified as "Show HN" given you can't really download it and try it out. However, dang said[0]: > If it's hardware or something that's not so easy to try out over the internet, find a different way to show how it actually works—a video, for example, or a detailed post with photos. Hopefully I did that? Additionally, I've put code and a detailed guide for the netboot computer management setup on GitHub: https://github.com/kentonv/lanparty Anyway, if this shouldn't have been Show HN, I apologize!
