The screen reads you back.

Mnemos is a memory console for systems that feel observed rather than operated. Recalls land as manga koma, and one phosphor cursor is the only thing alive in the room.

Open the consoleWatch it recall

Panels carry the state. The gutter carries the time.

One dominant panel reads first, a paper beat turns the page, and a terminal panel inverts to black the moment a recall goes live.

The dominant beat

The widest koma reads first. A recalled page is restored in ink on paper and held by the gutter around it.

Terminal inversion

A live panel flips to black, white output, one cursor.

# the space between is the pacing
mnemos> pace --hold 96px

The gutter is structure

Gutters from 4px to 128px set the rhythm.

The paper turn

A bright koma marks a turn in the read. Ink on paper, no colour: the identity survives in weight, gutter and type.

Typed evidence, not ornament.

Shell paths, timestamps and diagnostic codes carry the references. Nothing decorative is laid over the text.

tracePoint Mnemos at an archive. It reads frame by frame and pins each frame to a scene and a beat.
stageLay the recall out as a koma spread. Scale ranks it, the gutter paces it, one rule frames it.
lockThe live panel inverts and the cursor confirms the recall, the one decisive machine acknowledgement.

Four rules the ink keeps.

Black, paper, grey

That is the real palette. Everything on the page can be read without a single colour.

One signal, phosphor

Green appears only where the machine is live: the cursor, the confirmed recall, the one button that acts.

The title stands upright

A vertical title rail anchors each spread, and large unoccupied paper fields stay unoccupied.

Importance is scale

Nothing floats and nothing is a card. The dominant frame is the widest, and the reader follows size and order.

Noir is made by omission: hard contrast, visible silence, and one rare signal.

Open a console that reads back.

Mnemos stages forensic memory the way a page stages a scene: precise, unhurried, even when it reports something critical.
