[CASTBACK]

This week in my spare time I've continued building castback, a /cli command line tool that backs up all of a user's farcaster casts, and enables searches. I built this because I found myself always trying to find *that old cast I made last month*. 

- Caches all casts from any FID to filesystem: no need to keep pulling data over API. Can easily update your backup with the most recent batch of casts only.
- Searches and provides link to cast.
- Uses @airstack.eth API, so users don't need a hub, just a free API key. (It took a while since we spoke first about it @betashop.eth but I did finally get around to building with the API, thanks!)

I'll open source and release it once it's all done, but it's working well already!

(Highly recommend checking airstack if you want to do farcaster dev quickly with minimal fuss! 🙏)

would love to have this as an Obsidian plugin

Ohai fam! Thanks! Well, let me get the initial release out and I can take a look at how I can integrate this into Obsidian.

tbh I haven't used Obsidian yet but I have heard a lot of great stuff about it!
