Introduction

Chronologue uses RESTful API endpoints to connect the user-facing frontend (React chat and calendar UI) with the backend memory store, planner engine, and language model integration.

These endpoints allow:

  • Chat-based task creation and agent planning
  • Memory trace storage and editing
  • Calendar generation and synchronization
  • Tempo-based personalization and reflection
  • Multi-agent orchestration via shared memory state

All endpoints return JSON and are organized by purpose below.
