fix: wikilink autocomplete uses relative path, prevent silent rename

Bug 1: Wikilink autocomplete now always inserts the vault-relative path
as the target (e.g. [[docs/adr/0001-tauri-stack|Title]]) instead of
just the filename. This ensures wikilinks are unambiguous and resolve
correctly across subfolders after reload.

Bug 2: unique_dest_path now excludes the source file from collision
checks, preventing false positives where a note's own file is treated
as a naming conflict (causing silent -2 suffix renames).

+# /laputa-done <task_id>
+
+Mark a Laputa task as done: add completion comment, move to In Review, notify Brian, then self-dispatch the next task.
+
+Run this after Phase 1 (Playwright) and Phase 2 (native app QA) both pass **and `git push origin main` has succeeded**.
+
+⚠️ A task is NOT done until the push succeeds. If the push is blocked by the pre-push hook (clippy, tests, CodeScene, build):
+- Read the error
+- Fix it (never use `--no-verify`)
+- Commit the fix and push again
+- Repeat until push exits with code 0
+
+## Steps
+
+**1. Add completion comment to the task**
+
+Summarize what was done — this is the context Luca and Brian will read in Todoist:
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST "https://api.todoist.com/api/v1/comments" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TODOIST_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "task_id": "$ARGUMENTS",
+    "content": "✅ Implementation complete.\n\n**What changed:** [brief summary of the implementation]\n**ADR:** [if an ADR was created, reference it here; otherwise omit]\n**Playwright:** all tests pass\n**Native QA:** tested with pnpm tauri dev — [describe what was tested and what was observed]"
+  }'
+```
+
+**2. Move task to In Review**
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST "https://api.todoist.com/api/v1/tasks/$ARGUMENTS/move" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TODOIST_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"section_id": "6g3XjX33FF4Vj86M"}'
+```
+
+**3. Notify Luca (informational only — no action needed from him)**
+
+```bash
+openclaw system event --text "laputa-task-done:$ARGUMENTS" --mode now
+```
+
+This is a passive notification. Luca reviews tasks in his own time. Do NOT wait for approval — proceed immediately to step 4.
+
+**4. Pick the next task**
+
+Run `/laputa-next-task` to get the next task and start working on it immediately.
+
+If `/laputa-next-task` returns `NO_TASKS` → exit cleanly. The hourly watchdog will restart you when new tasks arrive.

+# /laputa-next-task
+
+Pick the next Laputa task from Todoist and move it to In Progress.
+
+Priority order: **To Rework** first, then **Open** (sorted by Todoist priority p1→p4).
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Fetch tasks from To Rework (`6g6QqvR9rRpvJWvv`), then Open (`6g3XjWR832hVHhCM`)
+2. Sort each section by priority (p1 highest)
+3. Take the first available task
+4. Move it to In Progress (`6g3XjWjfmJFcGgHM`) via Todoist API:
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST "https://api.todoist.com/api/v1/tasks/<task_id>/move" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TODOIST_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"section_id": "6g3XjWjfmJFcGgHM"}'
+```
+
+5. Add a "started" comment to the task:
+
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST "https://api.todoist.com/api/v1/comments" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TODOIST_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"task_id": "<task_id>", "content": "🚀 Starting work. [Brief description of approach or what needs to be fixed]"}'
+```
+
+6. Fetch the full task details (description, comments) from Todoist:
+
+```bash
+curl -s "https://api.todoist.com/api/v1/tasks/<task_id>" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TODOIST_API_KEY"
+
+curl -s "https://api.todoist.com/api/v1/comments?task_id=<task_id>" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TODOIST_API_KEY"
+```
+
+6. For To Rework tasks: read the ❌ QA failed comment — it tells you exactly what to fix
+7. Output: task ID, title, and full description so you can start working immediately
+
+If no tasks are available in either section → output `NO_TASKS` and exit cleanly.

-`~/Laputa/` is Luca's real vault. **Never create, edit, or delete notes there for testing purposes.**
+## 3. Product Rules
 
-Use the demo vault for all testing:
-- Playwright / Vitest: use the fixtures in `tests/` or `demo-vault-v2/`
-- `pnpm tauri dev` manual testing: open `demo-vault-v2/` as the vault, not `~/Laputa/`
-- If a test genuinely requires the real vault (e.g. verifying git history), read only — never write
+### User vault (`~/Laputa/`)
 
-Any commit that touches `~/Laputa/` content is a bug. If you accidentally created test notes there, delete them before committing.
+Default to `demo-vault-v2/`. If you must use `~/Laputa/` for testing: **never commit changes** — always run `cd ~/Laputa && git checkout -- . && git clean -fd` when done.
 
-## Vault Retrocompatibility
+### UI design
 
-Every feature that depends on vault files must auto-bootstrap: check if file/folder exists on vault open, create with defaults if missing (silent, idempotent). Register with the central `Cmd+K → "Repair Vault"` command.
+1. Open `ui-design.pen` first — study existing frames for visual language
+2. Design in light mode. Create `design/<slug>.pen` for the task
+3. On completion: merge frames into `ui-design.pen`, delete `design/<slug>.pen`
 
-## Keyboard-First + Menu Bar (mandatory)
+---
 
-Every feature must be reachable via keyboard. Every new command palette entry must also appear in the macOS menu bar (File / Edit / View / Note / Vault / Window). This is a QA requirement.

+title: "Full App instance for secondary note windows"
+status: active
+date: 2026-03-31
+---
+
+## Context
+
+Laputa supports opening a note in a secondary window ("Open in New Window"). The original implementation used a dedicated `NoteWindow` component — a thin shell that rendered only the editor, duplicating some App-level logic (vault loading, settings, keyboard shortcuts) in a simplified but diverging form. As the main App gained features (properties editing, zoom, command palette, keyboard shortcuts), the `NoteWindow` shell fell behind, requiring ongoing maintenance to keep parity.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Remove `NoteWindow` and render the full `App` component in secondary note windows.** The window type is detected at startup via URL query parameters (`?window=note&path=...&vault=...`). When in note-window mode, the App initialises with panels hidden (sidebar collapsed, inspector collapsed) and auto-opens the target note once vault entries load. The window title is kept in sync with the active note title via the Tauri window API.
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Keep `NoteWindow` shell** (status quo): lower initial bundle weight per window, but divergence grows with every main-App feature. Rejected — maintenance cost dominates.
+- **Full `App` instance with URL-param mode** (chosen): complete feature parity for free; single code path for all window types. Trade-off: slightly heavier startup for secondary windows (full vault load), acceptable given local filesystem speed.
+- **IPC-driven secondary window (no vault reload)**: secondary window subscribes to primary window's vault state via Tauri events. Maximum efficiency, avoids double vault reads. Deferred — requires significant IPC plumbing; can be layered on top later without changing the rendering model.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Removes ~163 lines (`NoteWindow.tsx` deleted entirely)
+- Secondary note windows get full feature parity: all keyboard shortcuts, properties panel, zoom, command palette, diff mode, raw editor
+- `useLayoutPanels` gains an `initialInspectorCollapsed` option to support the hidden-panel initial state
+- A new `src/utils/windowMode.ts` utility encapsulates URL-param detection — single source of truth for window-type logic
+- Vault is loaded independently in each note window (no shared state with the main window); writes go to the same filesystem so eventual consistency is maintained via file-watching
+- Triggers re-evaluation if: multiple simultaneous note windows cause measurable vault-read contention, or if IPC-driven shared-state windows become a product requirement

+title: "Git actions (Changes, Pulse, Commit) in status bar, not sidebar"
+status: active
+date: 2026-03-31
+---
+
+## Context
+
+The Laputa sidebar originally surfaced git-related affordances — a "Changes" nav item (visible when modified files > 0), a "Pulse" nav item, and a "Commit & Push" button — alongside the note-type navigation filters and sections. This mixed two concerns in the sidebar: **navigation** (where to go) and **git status / actions** (what changed, what to do). As the sidebar grew, the git items created visual noise and made the nav hierarchy harder to scan.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Move Changes, Pulse, and Commit & Push out of the sidebar and into the bottom status bar.** The status bar shows a GitDiff icon with an orange count badge for modified files; a Pulse icon sits next to it. Commit & Push is accessible via an icon button beside the Changes indicator. The sidebar now contains only navigation items (filters and type sections).
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Keep git items in sidebar** (status quo): familiar placement, visible at all times. Rejected — mixes navigation and action concerns; sidebar becomes harder to scan.
+- **Status bar** (chosen): consistent with app conventions (build number, sync status, vault switcher already live there); persistent but unobtrusive; follows macOS app patterns where status/action items live at window bottom.
+- **Toolbar / breadcrumb bar**: would require a new chrome layer or polluting the per-note breadcrumb with global git state. Rejected.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Sidebar props `modifiedCount`, `onCommitPush`, `isGitVault` removed; sidebar renders navigation-only
+- `StatusBar` gains `onClickPending`, `onClickPulse`, `onCommitPush`, `isGitVault` props
+- Sidebar tests for Changes/Pulse/Commit button removed; StatusBar tests extended
+- Users find Commit & Push in the status bar (same location as sync indicators) rather than bottom of sidebar — small discoverability change, offset by status bar being always visible regardless of sidebar collapsed state
+- Triggers re-evaluation if: user research shows git actions are hard to discover in the status bar

+Users with folder-based workflows (PARA, Zettelkasten with folders, project directories) could not see or filter notes by directory. The vault scanner silently ignored all subdirectory `.md` files, making Laputa unsuitable for vaults with any folder structure.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Extend the Rust vault scanner to index `.md` files in all visible subdirectories, and expose the vault's folder tree via a new `list_vault_folders` Tauri command so the sidebar can render a collapsible FOLDERS section.**
+
+Hidden directories (names starting with `.`, plus `.git` and `.laputa`) are excluded from both scanning and the folder tree.
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): Scan all subdirectories with `walkdir`, expose separate `list_vault_folders` command — simple, no schema changes to VaultEntry, folder tree is lightweight and independent of the entry cache.
+- **Option B**: Add a `folder` field to VaultEntry and derive the tree on the frontend — couples folder metadata to the entry cache, complicates cache invalidation when folders are created/deleted without file changes.
+- **Option C**: Keep flat scanning, add a "virtual folders" feature that groups by path prefix from frontmatter — doesn't solve the core problem of missing notes in subdirectories.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- All `.md` files in the vault are now indexed regardless of depth — vaults with many non-note `.md` files (e.g. node_modules) will see spurious entries. Mitigation: hidden directories are already excluded; users can add a `.laputaignore` in the future if needed.
+- The git-based cache in `cache.rs` already uses `walkdir` for change detection, so this change aligns scanning with caching.
+- `SidebarSelection` gains a new `{ kind: 'folder'; path: string }` variant — all exhaustive switches on selection kind must handle it.
+- ADR-0006's "flat vault" principle is relaxed: notes can now live in subdirectories. Type definitions still live in `type/` at the root.
+- Re-evaluate if users request recursive folder filtering (currently only direct children are shown when a folder is selected).
