Feature ideas

IN-F-001 Show the Startup Guide only the first time, while keeping it available from Config. Done
IN-R-001 Use a local LLM. The first target is macOS on Apple Silicon. Compare runtimes such as MLX, llama.cpp, an Ollama-managed helper, and Hermes; choose curated models based on checksums, memory footprint, context length, and structured-output reliability. Exploring
IN-O-001 Publish the INBOX, small improvements, and bug list, including synchronization to the landing page. Open
- IN-F-002 Ideally this becomes a standard editor feature: changes are continuously synchronized and published almost immediately. Open
IN-F-003 Add CLI access to Context and Wiki so agents can inspect concepts through commands such as nols, noput, and nocat. Open
IN-F-004 Visualize forgetting with compact signals such as a meter or sparkline. Open
IN-F-005 Load another file into the editor text area, keep it synchronized, make the synchronized area visually clear, and save changes back to the original file. Open
IN-F-006 Ship a Windows version. Open
IN-F-007 Ship a mobile version. Open
IN-T-001 Automate testing. Open
IN-F-008 Improve wiki restructuring, including import, export, and restructure flows. Open

IN-F-012 Add watched-media features for personal curation, such as a private news dashboard. Open
IN-F-013 Surface frequently used files based on usage over a period of time, not just recently viewed files; optionally open the top N as tabs. Open
IN-F-014 Support viewing X. Open
IN-F-015 Support viewing PDFs. Open
IN-F-016 Pick up forgotten material, such as old web clips, and suggest things that may be worth reading now. Open
IN-F-017 Support rectangular selection. Done
IN-F-018 Add full-text search. Open
IN-F-019 Add a shortcut for opening files immediately. Open
IN-F-020 Fill out the editing menu, including common actions such as bullet lists. Open
IN-F-021 When evidence comes from a WatchedFile, make that visible, even if only through an icon. Open
IN-F-022 Resurface related concepts from the past at the exact moment of writing. Done
IN-F-023 Add a Config button to run Dream immediately. Open
IN-F-024 Add persona files. Open
IN-F-025 Create a persona marketplace. Open
IN-F-026 Add tabs. Open
IN-F-027 Handle very large watched files more gracefully instead of failing when a file is too large. Open
IN-O-002 Write console output from tauri dev to logs, with configurable log levels. Open
IN-F-028 Improve context menus and OS menus. Open
IN-F-029 Add a command palette that opens from a shortcut and searches available actions as the user types. Open
IN-F-030 Add wiki publishing. Open
IN-F-031 Allow watched files to be mentioned and browsed. Open
IN-F-032 Allow mobile devices to access the desktop nohmitaina workspace remotely, possibly through Tailscale, while preserving a strong mobile editing experience. Open
IN-F-033 Embed AI-executable sections inside plain text so other editors still see normal Markdown while nohmitaina can run the AI section. Open
IN-F-034 Support more active concept editing, including merging concepts and expressing relationships such as includes. Done
IN-F-035 Add AI revision after voice recording. Open
IN-F-036 Create a knowledge network where other people's wikis can be referenced, such as @shortname:path. Open
IN-R-002 Explore a knowledge network with free and paid concepts, possibly with a token-economy worldview and a public folder convention. Open
IN-F-037 Make large-file handling smoother, especially when jumping far ahead in a large document. Open
IN-R-003 Create a Hermes agent, including the design of Hermes agent plus a free-LLM configuration. Open
IN-T-002 Refactor commands.rs, which may have too many responsibilities; review grouping, revise the code, and retest. Open
IN-O-003 Add periodic wiki backups into .system/backups so unintended LLM changes can be rolled back. Open

Issue notes

Edit

BUG-EDIT-002 Show editor content in tabs, with the tabs appearing in the same titlebar row. Done
BUG-EDIT-003 Deleting many files takes too long. Delete files first, then run DB cleanup in the background. Open
BUG-EDIT-004 Improve the right-click context menu, using tools such as Obsidian as references. Open
BUG-EDIT-005 When an H1 title is added to an Untitled note, use it as the title while still allowing filename and title to be managed separately. Done
BUG-EDIT-006 When text is selected, typing quotes or brackets should wrap the selection. Done
BUG-EDIT-007 Show release notes. Open
BUG-EDIT-008 When moving something in the file browser, the app becomes busy; make it clear what is running. Open
BUG-EDIT-009 For SLM or Bonsai-8B support, a Hermes agent plus user-selected LLM may be the cleaner direction. Open
BUG-EDIT-010 If voice recording inserts text before a Mermaid diagram, line breaks are removed repeatedly and the display breaks. Open
BUG-EDIT-011 Large Mermaid diagrams render too small and can only be zoomed to 150%; default them to the available width. Open
BUG-EDIT-012 When creating a Morning Page note, use the H1 title as the filename, without later filename edits changing the title. Done
BUG-EDIT-013 Add Markdown preview. Open
BUG-EDIT-014 Text before an hr line becomes styled like a heading even though it should remain normal text. Done
BUG-EDIT-015 Support rectangular selection. Done
BUG-EDIT-016 When deleting a rectangular selection across an empty line, preserve the empty line instead of removing the newline. Done
BUG-EDIT-017 Record and replay keyboard macros. Done
BUG-EDIT-018 Add menu items for bullet lists, numbered lists, and task lists. Done

BUG-EDIT-022 Remember the last wrap setting. Done
BUG-EDIT-023 Selection colors, including IME conversion colors, are hard to see. Done

BUG-EDIT-028 Markdown heading markers such as # remain visible unexpectedly. Done
BUG-EDIT-029 Find within a file is very slow. Done

BUG-EDIT-031 Returning from Config indents the current editor line and marks the tab unsaved. Done
BUG-EDIT-032 There is no Open menu; opening a new workspace may also need to be a menu item. Open
BUG-EDIT-033 Typing under a collapsed H1/H2 section inserts text at the hidden cursor location instead of where the user expects. Open
BUG-EDIT-034 New Folder is missing from the right-click menu. Done
BUG-EDIT-035 Internal links should show candidates and be available from the toolbar and right-click menu. Done
BUG-EDIT-036 Pressing Enter on an indented line should keep the indentation. Done

BUG-EDIT-039 Organize tab behavior by sampling many tab scenarios and cleaning up the code where needed. Done
BUG-EDIT-040 Tab order can become inconsistent with the UI; Cmd+Shift+[ does not move from tab B to tab A. Done
BUG-EDIT-041 Opening a third file can replace or lose the wrong tab, so tab behavior needs more systematic testing. Done
BUG-EDIT-042 When tab B opens a file already open in tab A, keep the action in tab B so each tab can have independent history. Open
BUG-EDIT-043 Decide whether parts of markdown-sample.md should be implemented. Open

BUG-EDIT-046 Opening or closing the notes tree creates a subtle layout shift in the editor file tree. Done
BUG-EDIT-047 Right-clicking inside a table can show Recall here over the table operation menu; the menu style should be reconsidered. Open
BUG-EDIT-048 Change the workspace tree structure so SCHEMA.md, config.yaml, and wiki live under nohmitaina/, and existing folders can be recognized as workspaces. Open
BUG-EDIT-049 When a long wrapped-off line is at the end and Enter is pressed, the viewport does not move to the new cursor position until another key is pressed. Open
BUG-EDIT-050 Opening an existing folder should recognize it as a workspace and automatically detect existing Markdown files. Open
BUG-EDIT-051 Startup logging is weak; when migration or startup fails, users need logs they can inspect. Open
