Semantic Image Search CLI (sisi) is a CLI tool for semantic image search that operates locally without relying on third-party APIs. Powered by node-mlx, a machine learning framework for Node.js, it supports GPU on Macs with Apple Silicon and x64 Macs/x64/arm64 Linux. The tool allows for indexing new and modified images, making subsequent updates easier. The index is built using the CLIP model to compute embeddings of images, stored in a binary JSON file, without the need for a database. This efficient search method computes cosine similarities for quick results, even with a large number of pictures. Unique feature: works with local files for flexibility.
