Talon Migration

Postgram includes a migration path from Talon exports to seeded Postgram knowledge entities.

What this page covers

How to move a Talon SQLite export into your running Postgram instance and validate results.

Core workflow

1. Copy the SQLite file into the container:

docker compose cp ./talon.sqlite mcp-server:/tmp/talon.sqlite

2. Run a dry run first:

docker compose exec -T mcp-server \
  node dist/migrate-talon/index.js /tmp/talon.sqlite \
  --api-base-url http://127.0.0.1:3100 \
  --api-key "$PGM_API_KEY" \
  --dry-run

3. Execute for real:

docker compose exec -T mcp-server \
  node dist/migrate-talon/index.js /tmp/talon.sqlite \
  --api-base-url http://127.0.0.1:3100 \
  --api-key "$PGM_API_KEY"

4. Optional controls:

--thread <id> --dry-run --api-base-url <url> --api-key <key> --api-url <url>

Notes

• Use an environment-backed API key with enough scopes for imports.
• Dry-runs are important for migration confidence on larger personal archives.
