Slash commands and floating toolbar. No Markdown syntax needed
Diagrams, math, tables, code — all rendered

v2.2.3 — Your notes and your reading, connected.

Tag while you read — Add tags from the reading pane directly to your Inbox notes. Multiple tags narrow the article list with AND filtering. Remove tags with the ✕ button, or type new ones by hand.

Paste CSV as a table — Spreadsheet data in your clipboard becomes an editable Markdown table the moment you paste. No reformatting needed.

Import threads and Bear notes — Paste a Twitter / X thread URL to pull in the thread as a block quote. Bear notes paste with headings and highlights intact.

Journaling, built in — A journaling entry flow opens today's note automatically in the Side Panel. Four templates included: Five Minute Journal, Stoic Journal, Daily Reflection, CBT Thought Record.

Settings and snippets in sync — Your theme, editor settings, and custom snippets are now included in Git sync. Changes made on one device appear on others automatically.

v2.2.4 — Web Clipper, your gateway for what matters.

Clip with more control — The Web Clipper now lets you choose how to capture a page before saving: article text only, full page, or a custom CSS selector for site-specific fields. The preview updates instantly as you switch modes, so you see exactly what you are saving.

Save the metadata you actually want — Page metadata (author, date, category, and more) appears in the note detail panel. Click any item to add it to the note's frontmatter. Existing entries are never overwritten.

Export that opens in Obsidian — Markdown exports now use Obsidian-compatible line breaks. Backslashes no longer appear at the end of lines when you open notes in Obsidian. ZIP exports also stamp files with the note's last-modified date, not the export time.

A quieter editor — The scrollbar appears only while you are scrolling. Block handles appear only when you hover over them. An empty note shows a one-line hint for slash commands, then disappears once you start writing.

Git sync is stable again — A deadlock that caused push to hang when RSS feeds and notes changed at the same time has been fixed.

v2.2.5 — Cleaner handoff, sharper command flow.

RSS clips remember where they came from — Saved RSS articles now include `source_url` in frontmatter, and the success toast includes Undo. Clip, review, and back out without losing the trail.

Command Palette feels faster — Recently used commands appear at the top, and snippets show a live preview before insertion. Mermaid snippets render in preview so you can choose the right diagram shape.

Exports are easier to hand off — Markdown target presets, ZIP filename fixes, Shift-JIS opt-in, Notion ZIP import, and timestamp consistency make batch export cleaner across tools and operating systems.

The editor gets out of the way — New notes autofocus the editor, Today Entry detection is stricter, toolbar labels expand only when compact space needs them, and narrow overlay Notes now open by click only.

Security is tightened — Runtime hardening, fail-closed PAT encryption, local KaTeX/Mermaid assets, and explicit CSP reduce extension review risk without adding tracking or remote services.

v2.2.2 — RSS, your daily reading companion.

Read anywhere, stay in sync — Articles you read on one device are marked as read everywhere. Up to 30 days of read history, synced automatically. The article text stays local; only the "read" signal travels.

Bring your subscriptions — Import and export your feed list as OPML. Carry your subscriptions to and from any RSS reader with one file.

Quote without leaving — Select any text in the reading pane and a toolbar appears. One click sends the excerpt to Inbox as a quoted note. Ctrl+Shift+Q works too.

Clean up old feeds — Feeds that have failed for 30 days or more appear in a Dead Feeds section. Pause or remove them from one place. Mark It Down never deletes automatically.

Fetch faster — Feeds that haven't changed skip re-processing. Only updated feeds are parsed, so polling feels lighter on both sides.
