Media management was a huge time sink, and I’d rather spend that time generating than searching for that one specific file. genvault helps with that.genvault is a small local web app for Windows that catalogs your AI-generated videos, images and sounds. It reads the generation data embedded in your files (prompt, model, seed, sampler, LoRAs …), makes everything searchable and lets you sort your work into projects. Your files stay on your disk and are never uploaded anywhere.Current version: 2.2.0 · Windows 10/11 · MIT License · vibe coded with Claude<h1 id="changelog">Changelog</h1><h2 id="2.4.0">2.4.0</h2>Release module: trim preview.

Download and unzip. Move the <code>genvault</code> folder somewhere permanent (e.g. <code>D:\genvault</code>).2. Double-click <code>setup.bat</code>. It sets up its own Python environment and asks where your library should live (pick a drive with space) and which port to use (just press Enter).3. Double-click <code>genvault-tray.bat</code>. When the tray icon turns green, right-click → Open genvault (or go to <code>http://127.0.0.1:8077</code>).Full instructions, configuration and troubleshooting are in the included <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="http://README.md">README.md</a>.<h2 id="updating">Updating</h2>Quit genvault from the tray icon, drag the new zip onto <code>update.bat</code>, start again. Your library, settings and database are kept.<h2 id="good-to-know">Good to know</h2><ul><li>genvault runs only on your machine <code>127.0.0.1</code>). There are no accounts and no telemetry.</li><li>Files are filed manually by design; genvault never guesses projects from file names or prompts.</li><li>No duplicate detection and no settings screen: platforms and kinds are set in <code>config.json</code>.</li></ul><h2 id="disclaimer:-prompt-and-metadata-detection">⚠️ Disclaimer: prompt and metadata detection</h2>There are countless ComfyUI nodes and custom workflows, and there is no standard for where a prompt is stored. genvault recognizes common setups, but it cannot reliably read every workflow. Depending on your nodes you may see:<ul><li>Correct values: typical for A1111 images and standard ComfyUI workflows</li><li>Empty fields: the file has no embedded workflow (e.g. saved without metadata, or re-encoded/edited afterwards), or the prompt comes from a node genvault doesn't know</li><li>The negative prompt in the positive field (or vice versa): genvault can't always tell which text node is which, especially when both still have their default name</li></ul>Tip: In ComfyUI, rename your text-encode nodes so the titles contain "Positive" and "Negative". genvault uses these titles first, which makes detection much more reliable.Wrong or missing values can always be corrected by hand in the details panel. When a workflow is embedded, Copy workflow JSON still gives you the complete original data. Editing metadata in genvault never modifies the contents of your files.<h2 id="what's-new-in-2.2.0">What's new in 2.2.0</h2>- Rename projects right from the sidebar (pencil icon on hover)- Multi-select delete: move many files to the Trash at once, and restore or permanently delete many files in the Trash- The filter sidebar keeps its scroll position instead of jumping back to the top<h2 id="fixes-since-2.1">Fixes since 2.1</h2>- Filing, moving or deleting a file while its preview is playing no longer fails with "file is used by another process"- No more HTTP 500 errors on delete/restore of locked files- No duplicate files after a failed move; database and folders always stay in sync- The autocomplete list in the bulk bar now docks to the bar correctly- Clearer error messages that name the files that failedFeedback and bug reports are welcome.

genvault — a local media vault for your AI generations

2.4.0 — 2026-10-25- Release module: trim preview. Every clip has a ✂ Preview button that opens a player under the clip list. A timeline bar shows the kept part and the playhead (click it to jump). Step frame by frame, then use Set start here / Set end here — the frame you see is always kept — and Play trimmed to watch only the part that will be exported. The cut fields, lengths and total update automatically; typing values still works.- Fix: trims are now exact to the frame. Cutting used ffmpeg input seeking, which could let one extra frame through at the end. Trims now use the timestamp-based <code>trim</code> filter (verified frame by frame against the source).
