An open-source, local-first system for keeping notes and conversations in portable Markdown files, then asking questions with answers tied to their sources.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-29 issue.

Field notes

The homepage models its workflow with a fictional vault: a question about a Lisbon café returns a quoted memory and a citation to Travel/Lisbon.md, dated 14 May 2025. It describes storage as readable Markdown and offers several operating modes, including hosted sync, self-hosting, and on-device use. A separate MCP endpoint is presented as the route for supplying chosen context to other AI tools, while the sample explicitly says no AI call occurs.
