Quick Start

Get Talon running locally in 3 minutes and execute your first agent query.

Talon ships as a single binary. Download the version for your architecture and start the server.

Terminal curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/darkmice/talon/main/install.sh | sh ./talon-server --start

Talon supports standard SQL syntax. Create tables and insert data with full ACID guarantees.

Create Table

CREATE TABLE users (
    id UUID PRIMARY KEY,
    name TEXT,
    embedding VECTOR(1536)
);

This is where Talon shines. Mix KV storage, vector search, and relational data in a single query.

KV & Vector Hybrid

SELECT id, name,
  vector_similarity(embedding, ?) AS score
FROM users
WHERE last_active > NOW() - INTERVAL '1 hour'
ORDER BY score ASC
LIMIT 10;
