feat: include Type definitions in command palette's dynamic commands

extractVaultTypes now also reads entries where isA === 'Type' and adds
their title, so "New <Type>" commands appear as soon as a Type is
defined — not only after an instance of that type exists.

+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

+[[Subfolder scanning and folder tree navigation]]
+
+## 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

+
+Supersedes the scanning constraint in [ADR-0006](0006-flat-vault-structure.md) which limited vault indexing to root-level `.md` files plus protected folders (`attachments/`, `assets/`).
+
+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).

+status: active
+date: 2026-04-01

+
+## Context
+
+ADR-0014 (git-based vault cache) and ADR-0021 (push-to-main workflow) both assume the vault is a git repository, but neither codified it as a hard enforcement. In practice, opening a non-git folder silently degraded: the cache couldn't compute a commit hash, Pulse/Changes were empty, and commit/push commands failed. The failure mode was invisible to users.
+
+## Decision
+
+**When the app opens a vault that has no `.git` directory, a blocking modal prevents all app use until the user either initialises a git repository (git init + initial commit, offered as a one-click action) or selects a different vault. The check is performed by a new `is_git_repo` Tauri command. In browser/dev mode, the check fails open (modal is skipped).**
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): Hard block via modal on vault open — unambiguous, prevents silent failures, surfaces the fix immediately. Downside: breaks existing workflows for users with non-git vaults; requires a clear escape hatch (choose different vault).
+- **Option B**: Soft warning banner, allow using the app without git — avoids blocking users, but silent failures persist for Pulse/Changes/commit features.
+- **Option C**: Auto-init git on vault open without asking — less friction, but surprising; user may not want their vault in git.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Git is now a first-class prerequisite for Laputa vaults, not just implied by the cache strategy.
+- The `is_git_repo` command is intentionally lightweight (checks for `.git` existence only; does not validate remote or commit history).
+- The modal offers `git init` + an initial commit as a one-click path, lowering the barrier for new users.
+- Browser mode bypasses the check so dev/Storybook workflows are unaffected.
+- Re-evaluate if Laputa needs to support non-git vaults (e.g., iCloud-only, shared network drive); at that point ADR-0014 would also need revisiting.

+title: "Path-suffix wikilink resolution for subfolder vaults"
+status: active
+date: 2026-04-01
+---
+
+## Context
+
+ADR-0006 stated that wikilink resolution was "simplified to multi-pass title/filename matching — no path-based matching needed" because the vault was flat. ADR-0033 relaxed the flat-vault constraint by adding subfolder scanning. As a result, wikilinks like `[[docs/adr/0031-foo]]` or `[[adr/0031-foo]]` could not resolve to entries in subdirectories: the resolver only matched on `title` and `filename` stem, never on the vault-relative path.
+
+The backlink detection in the Inspector also used a hardcoded `/Laputa/` path regex, which was wrong for any vault that isn't named "Laputa".
+
+## Decision
+
+**Add path-suffix matching as Pass 1 of wikilink resolution: a link target resolves to a `VaultEntry` if the entry's vault-relative path ends with the link string (with or without `.md`). Filename-stem matching (the previous Pass 1) becomes Pass 2. Inspector backlinks replace the hardcoded `/Laputa/` regex with a generic `targetMatchesEntry` path-suffix helper. Autocomplete pre-filter also matches against the full vault-relative path so subfolder names surface results.**
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): Path-suffix as Pass 1, then filename match as Pass 2 — consistent with how Obsidian resolves links in multi-folder vaults, zero config. Downside: if two notes share the same filename in different folders, only the first (path-suffix) match wins.
+- **Option B**: Strict full-path matching only (disable title-stem resolution) — unambiguous, but breaks the majority of existing short-form `[[note-title]]` links.
+- **Option C**: Keep title-only matching, require full paths for subfolder notes — backwards-compatible, but forces users to always type full paths for subfolders, defeating the purpose of wikilinks.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Supersedes the "no path-based matching needed" clause from ADR-0006 (that assumption was contingent on the flat vault invariant, which ADR-0033 relaxed).
+- `relativePathStem` utility added in `wikilink.ts` to extract the vault-relative path stem from a full `VaultEntry`.
+- The Inspector's `targetMatchesEntry` helper is now the canonical way to test if a link resolves to an entry — use it everywhere instead of ad-hoc regex.
+- Wikilink autocomplete suggestions now surface notes in subfolders when users type a folder prefix (e.g. `[[adr/`).

+title: "External rename detection via git diff on focus regain"
+status: active
+date: 2026-04-01
+---
+
+## Context
+
+Laputa handles in-app renames (rename.rs) and propagates wikilink updates across the vault. But notes can also be renamed externally — from Finder, another editor, or a git operation (e.g., `git mv`). In those cases, the app had no way to detect that a rename had occurred, leaving wikilinks broken and the vault inconsistent.
+
+The app already uses git for the cache (ADR-0014) and requires git as a vault prerequisite (ADR-0034), making git diff a natural and already-available detection mechanism.
+
+## Decision
+
+**When the app window regains focus, run `git diff --diff-filter=R --name-status HEAD` to detect file renames that occurred since the last committed HEAD. If any renamed `.md` files are found, show a non-blocking banner ("X file(s) renamed — update wikilinks?"). Accepting triggers the existing vault-wide wikilink replacement logic (reused from rename.rs). Ignoring dismisses the banner without changes. New Tauri commands: `detect_renames` and `update_wikilinks_for_renames`.**
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): Git diff on focus regain, non-blocking banner — uses existing infrastructure, non-disruptive, user retains control. Downside: only detects renames that are staged/committed; uncommitted renames via `git mv` are captured, but renames done purely in Finder (no git involvement) are not.
+- **Option B**: `FSEvents` / file-system watcher for rename events — catches all renames regardless of git. Downside: significantly more complex, requires Rust async machinery, false positives from editor temp files, and this feature is already planned as a separate enhancement.
+- **Option C**: Scan for broken wikilinks on focus — correct but O(n) and noisy; doesn't tell us the new filename.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Git's rename detection (`--diff-filter=R`) requires the rename to be git-tracked (either staged or committed); renames that happen outside git knowledge are not detected by this mechanism.
+- The on-focus check runs `git diff HEAD` which is fast but adds a small shell invocation overhead each time the window activates. This is acceptable for typical vault sizes.
+- `rename.rs` is now shared between in-app renames and external rename recovery — the replacement logic is the canonical entry point for wikilink bulk updates.
+- The banner is non-blocking and "Ignore" is always available — the user never loses work.

+title: "Language-based markdown syntax highlighting in raw editor"
+status: active
+date: 2026-04-01
+---
+
+## Context
+
+The raw editor (CodeMirror 6, introduced in ADR-0022) initially had a custom `frontmatterHighlight` extension that used regex-based decoration for YAML frontmatter and headings. Markdown body content had no syntax highlighting at all, making the raw editor feel like a plain textarea despite being a full CodeMirror instance.
+
+Extending the custom regex-based approach to cover all markdown syntax (bold, italic, links, lists, blockquotes, code) would have been brittle and hard to maintain.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Replace the custom heading decoration in `frontmatterHighlight.ts` with `@codemirror/lang-markdown` (the official CodeMirror language package). A custom `HighlightStyle` maps CodeMirror highlight tags to visual styles for headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, links, lists, blockquotes, and inline code. The frontmatter YAML plugin is retained for YAML-specific colouring but its heading decoration is removed in favour of the language parser.**
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): `@codemirror/lang-markdown` with custom HighlightStyle — uses the official, maintained language parser; future highlight rules are one CSS declaration. Downside: adds a new npm dependency; the custom frontmatter plugin must be kept separately.
+- **Option B**: Extend the custom regex plugin to cover all markdown — no new dependency. Downside: regex-based tokenisation is fragile (e.g., nested formatting), already proving hard to maintain after the heading/frontmatter overlap bug.
+- **Option C**: Switch to a markdown-aware editor (e.g., Milkdown, Monaco) — full-featured. Downside: major migration, breaks the dual-editor architecture in ADR-0022, significant scope.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- `@codemirror/lang-markdown` added to `package.json` — this is the only new runtime dependency introduced by this change.
+- `frontmatterHighlight.ts` is simplified (heading decoration removed); `markdownHighlight.ts` is the new extension responsible for body highlighting.
+- The two extensions are composed in `useCodeMirror.ts` — YAML frontmatter block is still styled by the custom plugin; everything else by the language parser.
+- Future syntax highlighting changes (e.g., task lists, tables) can be added by extending the `HighlightStyle` without modifying the parser.
+- Re-evaluate if `@codemirror/lang-markdown` conflicts with the custom frontmatter YAML handling as the editor evolves (e.g., if frontmatter block needs to be parsed as a code block rather than decorated text).

+status: active
+date: 2026-04-02
+---
+
+## Context
+
+Users want to pin frequently-accessed notes to a dedicated FAVORITES section in the sidebar for quick navigation. The app needs a persistence mechanism for which notes are favorited and their display order.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Favorites are stored as two system properties in each note's YAML frontmatter: `_favorite: true` and `_favorite_index: <integer>`.**
+
+- `_favorite`: boolean. Present and `true` = favorited. Absent = not favorited. Toggling off deletes the key entirely (no `_favorite: false`).
+- `_favorite_index`: integer. Controls display order in the FAVORITES sidebar section (lower = higher). Assigned automatically on favorite, updated on drag-to-reorder.
+- Both use the `_` prefix convention (ADR 0008) — they are system-owned and hidden from the Properties panel.
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Frontmatter per-note (chosen)**: Each note carries its own favorite state. Portable across devices (synced via git). No separate metadata file. Cons: two extra frontmatter writes on reorder.
+- **Separate `.laputa/favorites.json` file**: Central list of favorite paths. Simpler reorder (one file write). Cons: not portable if `.laputa/` is gitignored; path references break on rename.
+- **SQLite/app-level metadata**: Fast queries. Cons: not synced via git; diverges from frontmatter-first data model established in ADR 0008.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Favorites survive vault sync via git — any client that reads frontmatter sees them.
+- Reorder writes `_favorite_index` to N files (one per affected note). Acceptable for typical favorites lists (< 20 items).
+- If `_favorite: true` exists but `_favorite_index` is absent, the note is appended to the end of the list.
+- Re-evaluate if favorites list exceeds ~50 items and reorder writes become a performance concern.

+title: "Use git history for note creation and modification dates"
+status: active
+date: 2026-04-02
+---
+
+## Context
+
+Filesystem metadata (`ctime`/`mtime`) is unreliable for a git-backed vault. After `git clone`, `git pull`, or iCloud sync, files appear "newly created" even when they have years of history. This causes incorrect sort ordering in the note list and wrong dates in the inspector panel.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Use `git log` to determine the true creation and modification dates for notes.** A single batch `git log --format="COMMIT %aI" --name-only` command walks the full commit history and extracts:
+
+- **modified_at** = author date of the most recent commit that touched the file
+- **created_at** = author date of the oldest commit that touched the file
+
+The batch approach runs once per vault scan (not per-file), parsing the log output in a single linear pass. Results are stored in a `HashMap<String, GitDates>` keyed by vault-relative path and threaded through the existing `parse_md_file` / `scan_vault` / `scan_vault_cached` pipeline.
+
+### Fallback to filesystem dates
+
+- **Non-git vaults** (no `.git` directory): all notes use filesystem `mtime`/`ctime`.
+- **Uncommitted new files**: not in git log output, so filesystem dates are used automatically.
+- **Single-file reloads** (`reload_entry`): use filesystem dates since the file was just saved and the most accurate timestamp is the filesystem one.
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Per-file `git log`**: Correct but O(n) subprocesses. Too slow for vaults with 500+ notes.
+- **Frontmatter dates** (e.g., `created: 2025-01-15`): Requires user discipline. Not automatic. Breaks when users forget to set them.
+- **Filesystem metadata** (current): Unreliable across clones, pulls, and cloud sync.
+- **Single batch `git log`** (chosen): One subprocess, O(n) parsing, correct dates for all committed files.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Note sort-by-created and sort-by-modified now reflect true git history, stable across clones and machines.
+- First vault scan runs one `git log` over the full history. For a vault with 1000 files and 500 commits, output is ~100KB and parses in <100ms.
+- Renamed files get `created_at` set to the rename commit date (not the original creation). Acceptable trade-off vs. the complexity of rename tracking.
+- `CACHE_VERSION` bumped from 9 to 10 to force a full rescan with git dates on upgrade.

+status: active
+date: 2026-04-02
+---
+
+## Context
+
+Users want to save reusable filtered note lists (e.g., "Active Projects", "This Week's Events") as named sidebar items. These views need to persist across sessions, sync via git, and support arbitrary frontmatter conditions.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Custom views are stored as `.yml` files in `.laputa/views/` within the vault root.** Each file defines a named view with filter conditions, optional icon/color, and sort preferences.
+
+### File format
+
+```yaml
+name: Active Projects
+icon: rocket
+color: blue
+sort: "modified:desc"
+filters:
+  all:
+    - field: type
+      op: equals
+      value: Project
+    - field: status
+      op: not_equals
+      value: done
+```
+
+### Filter engine
+
+Filters use a tree of AND/OR groups (`all`/`any`) containing conditions. Each condition specifies a `field`, `op` (operator), and optional `value`. Supported operators: `equals`, `not_equals`, `contains`, `not_contains`, `any_of`, `none_of`, `is_empty`, `is_not_empty`, `before`, `after`.
+
+Field resolution: built-in fields (`type`, `status`, `title`, `archived`, `trashed`, `favorite`) map to VaultEntry struct fields. Unknown fields fall back to `entry.properties`, then `entry.relationships`.
+
+Wikilink values like `[[target|Alias]]` are matched by stem (stripping brackets and pipe+alias).
+
+### Architecture
+
+- **Rust backend** (`vault/views.rs`): YAML parsing via `serde_yaml`, filter evaluation, file CRUD. Three Tauri commands: `list_views`, `save_view_cmd`, `delete_view_cmd`.
+- **Frontend**: Client-side filter evaluation against the already-loaded `VaultEntry[]` array. The Rust `evaluate_view` exists for MCP/CLI access but is not the primary UI path.
+- **Sidebar**: VIEWS section between Favorites and Types, hidden when no views exist.
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **SQLite views table**: Fast queries, but not portable via git and diverges from the file-first data model.
+- **Frontmatter on a special `.md` file**: Overloads the note format for a non-note concept.
+- **Standalone `.yml` files (chosen)**: Portable (synced via git), editable by hand or UI, naturally separated from note content.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- New dependency: `serde_yaml` crate for YAML parsing.
+- `.laputa/views/` directory auto-created on first view save. Already excluded from vault scanning via `HIDDEN_DIRS`.
+- Views sync across devices via git. Conflicts resolved by standard git merge (YAML is line-based, merges well).
+- Sort persistence: changing sort while a view is selected writes `sort` back to the `.yml` file.

+title: "fileKind field — scan all vault files, not just markdown"
+status: active
+date: 2026-04-02
+---
+
+## Context
+
+Laputa vaults often contain non-markdown files alongside notes: images, PDFs, YAML configs, JSON exports, scripts, etc. Previously the vault scanner only indexed `.md` files — all other files were invisible to the app. This made the Folder view incomplete: navigating a folder containing a `config.yml` or `photo.png` showed nothing, even though the file was physically there.
+
+The need arose when adding a Folder tree view that is meant to mirror the actual filesystem structure. Users expect to see all files in a folder, as any file manager would show.
+
+## Decision
+
+**The vault scanner now indexes all files (not just `.md`). Every `VaultEntry` carries a `fileKind` field (`"markdown"`, `"text"`, or `"binary"`) that controls how the frontend renders and opens it.**
+
+- **`"markdown"`**: full Laputa behavior — frontmatter parsing, BlockNote editor, title sync, type system.
+- **`"text"`**: filename as title, no frontmatter, opens in raw CodeMirror editor. Covers `.yml`, `.json`, `.ts`, `.py`, `.sh`, etc.
+- **`"binary"`**: filename as title, grayed out, non-clickable. Covers images, PDFs, binaries.
+- **Hidden files** (starting with `.`) are skipped regardless of extension.
+- **Non-folder views** (All Notes, type sections, Custom Views) still show only `"markdown"` entries.
+- **Folder view** shows all file kinds.
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): Single `VaultEntry` model with a `fileKind` discriminator. All files go through the same pipeline; rendering is gated by `fileKind`. Simple, incremental — existing code paths untouched for markdown files.
+- **Option B**: Separate data model for non-markdown files (e.g. `AssetEntry`). Cleaner type hierarchy, but requires duplicating list/filter/sort logic for two types across the codebase.
+- **Option C**: Only scan `.md` + explicitly listed extensions (e.g. `.yml`, `.json`). Simpler initial implementation, but requires ongoing maintenance of an allowlist and still misses user files. Abandoned in favor of a deny-list approach (only `.`-prefixed hidden files are excluded).
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Non-markdown files are visible in Folder view — the app now behaves like a file manager in that context.
+- All views except Folder view continue to show only markdown files (the `isMarkdown` guard in `filterEntries`).
+- `countByFilter` / `countAllByFilter` exclude non-markdown entries to keep sidebar counters accurate.
+- The vault cache version was bumped to `11` to force a full rescan after this change.
+- Binary files have no click action — clicking does nothing (no editor opened).
+- Re-evaluation trigger: if users need to preview or edit binary files (e.g. images), a dedicated preview pane would need a separate ADR.

+---
+## Context
+
+ADR-0017 introduced canary/stable update channels with localStorage-based feature flags. This worked for local development but lacked remote flag management — promoting a feature from beta to stable required a code change and rebuild.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Replace localStorage feature flags with PostHog-based feature flags, evaluated per release channel (alpha/beta/stable). The release channel is a user-selectable setting; PostHog flag rules determine which features are visible for each channel.**
+
+- **Alpha**: all features always enabled (no PostHog lookup needed, works offline)
+- **Beta**: sees features where the PostHog flag targets `release_channel = beta`
+- **Stable** (default): sees features where the PostHog flag targets `release_channel = stable`
+- Promotion = flipping a PostHog flag on the dashboard. Zero code changes, zero rebuilds.
+- `isFeatureEnabled(flagKey)` in `telemetry.ts` is the single evaluation point.
+- localStorage overrides (`ff_<name>`) still work for dev/QA testing (checked first).
+- Offline: PostHog caches flags in localStorage; alpha always works; first-launch-no-network falls back to hardcoded defaults.
+
+## Options considered
+
+* **Option A**: Keep localStorage-only flags (ADR-0017) — no server dependency, but no remote management.
+* **Option B** (chosen): PostHog feature flags — we already use PostHog for analytics, so no new dependency. Remote flag management, per-channel targeting, gradual rollouts via PostHog dashboard.
+* **Option C**: Dedicated feature flag service (LaunchDarkly, Unleash) — more powerful but adds a new vendor dependency.
+
+## Consequences
+
+* `release_channel` added to Settings (persisted via Tauri backend, not vault).
+* `useTelemetry` passes `release_channel` as a PostHog person property on identify.
+* `isFeatureEnabled()` checks channel → PostHog → hardcoded defaults.
+* `useFeatureFlag` hook updated to delegate to `isFeatureEnabled` (after localStorage override check).
+* ADR-0017 is superseded — the canary update channel remains, but feature gating moves from localStorage to PostHog.

+  - "[[Laputa Onboarding]]"
+---
+
+Welcome to your Laputa vault! This note walks you through the key features so you can start building your personal knowledge graph.
+
+## Editor
+
+Laputa uses a rich markdown editor. Write in plain markdown with headings, lists, checkboxes, code blocks, and blockquotes. Every note has YAML frontmatter at the top (between `---` delimiters) that stores metadata like type, status, and relationships.
+
+Wiki-links connect notes together: type `[[` in the editor to search and link to any note in your vault.
+
+## Types
+
+Types define the kind of entity a note represents — Note, Project, Person, Topic, Task, or any custom type you create. Each type gets its own icon, color, and sidebar section. To create a new type, add a markdown file with `type: Type` in the frontmatter.
+
+## Sidebar
+
+The left sidebar organizes your vault by type. Each type gets its own collapsible section. Special sections include:
+
+- **Inbox** — notes without a type
+- **All Notes** — every note in the vault
+- **Archive** — archived notes
+- **Trash** — deleted notes (recoverable for 30 days)
+
+## Properties
+
+Open the **Inspector** panel (right side) to view and edit a note's properties. Click any value to change it. Use the **+ Add property** button to add custom fields. Properties containing `[[wiki-links]]` become navigable relationships.
+
+## Relationships
+
+Connect notes through frontmatter fields like `Belongs to`, `Related to`, and `Has`. These appear as clickable pills in the Inspector. Backlinks are computed automatically — linking A to B makes B show a backlink to A.
+
+## Views
+
+Views are saved filters that show a subset of your notes. Create a view to see, for example, all active projects or all tasks belonging to a specific project. Views live in the `views/` folder as YAML files. This vault includes an "Active Projects" view that filters for projects with status Active.
+
+## Favorites
+
+Pin frequently used notes to the Favorites section at the top of the sidebar. Toggle a note's favorite status from the Inspector or the command palette.
+
+## Search
+
+Press **Cmd+P** to quick-open any note by title. Use the search bar in the sidebar for full-text search across all notes.
+
+## Command palette
+
+Press **Cmd+K** to open the command palette. From here you can create notes, switch types, toggle views, and access every action in the app.
+
+## AI
+
+Laputa integrates with Claude Code. When Claude Code is running in your vault directory, the status bar shows a green badge. You can use AI to help organize, summarize, and connect your notes.
+
+## Git sync
+
+Your vault is a standard git repository. Use the **Changes** view in the sidebar to see modified files, commit changes, and push to a remote. This means your vault works with any git hosting service for backup and sync across devices.

+
+1. Open the command palette (Cmd+K) and look for a "New View" action, or create a `.yml` file in the `views/` folder
+2. Define filters — for example, show all tasks with status Open
+3. Set a name, icon, and color for the view
+4. Save — the view appears in the sidebar under Views
+
+## View format
+
+Views are YAML files in `views/`. Here is an example:
+
+```yaml
+name: Open Tasks
+icon: check-square
+color: orange
+sort: "modified:desc"
+filters:
+  all:
+    - field: type
+      op: equals
+      value: Task
+    - field: Status
+      op: equals
+      value: Open
+```
+
+## Tip
+
+Views update automatically as you add or change notes. They are a powerful way to create dashboards for your projects, areas, or any slice of your vault.

+Types give structure to your vault. Every note has a type — Project, Person, Topic, or any custom type you define.
+
+## What to try
+
+1. Create a new markdown file (Cmd+N)
+2. In the frontmatter, set `type: Type`
+3. Add an `icon:` field — use any [Phosphor icon](https://phosphoricons.com) name in kebab-case (e.g. `book-open`, `lightning`, `house`)
+4. Add a `color:` field — available colors: red, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange
+5. Give it a title with a `# Heading` and a short description in the body
+6. Save the file — your new type appears in the sidebar
+
+## Example
+
+```yaml
+---
+type: Type
+icon: book-open
+color: red
+order: 6

+
+The `order` field controls position in the sidebar (lower = higher).

+Your vault is a git repository. Connecting it to a remote lets you back up your notes and sync across devices.
+
+## What to try
+
+1. Create a new repository on GitHub, GitLab, or any git host
+2. Open a terminal in your vault directory
+3. Add the remote: `git remote add origin <your-repo-url>`
+4. Push your vault: `git push -u origin main`
+
+## Using the Changes view
+
+Laputa has a built-in Changes view in the sidebar that shows modified files. From there you can:
+
+- See which files have changed since the last commit
+- Commit changes with a message
+- Push to the remote
+
+## Tip
+
+Git sync means you can edit your vault from any device — even a plain text editor on a computer that does not have Laputa installed. The next time you open Laputa, pull the latest changes and everything updates.

+
+Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) is the practice of collecting, organizing, and connecting the information you encounter — notes, ideas, references, projects, and people — so it becomes a durable personal asset rather than a list of forgotten bookmarks.
+
+Laputa is designed as a PKM tool. Unlike traditional note-taking apps, it treats your notes as a graph of interconnected entities. Types give structure, wiki-links create connections, and views let you slice through the graph from different angles.
+
+## Core ideas
+
+- **Write things down** — Capture ideas, meeting notes, and references as they happen. A note that exists is infinitely more useful than a thought you forgot.
+- **Connect everything** — Use `[[wiki-links]]` to link related notes. Over time, these connections reveal patterns you did not plan.
+- **Use types** — Give notes a type (Project, Person, Topic) to add structure without rigid hierarchies.
+- **Review regularly** — Use views and favorites to surface what matters. A vault that is never revisited is just a graveyard of text files.

+
+Laputa is a local-first knowledge management app built on three principles:
+
+## Your files, your data
+
+Every note is a plain markdown file on your filesystem. There is no proprietary database, no cloud lock-in, no import/export ceremony. Your vault is a folder — you can open it in any text editor, back it up however you want, and it will outlive any app.
+
+## The filesystem is the truth
+
+Laputa reads your files and derives everything from them. Types, relationships, views, and sidebar sections are all computed from the frontmatter and folder structure. There is no hidden state. If you move a file in Finder, Laputa reflects the change. If you edit a file in VS Code, Laputa picks it up.
+
+## Git for sync and history
+
+Your vault is a git repository. Every change is a commit. Sync between devices by pushing and pulling to a remote. Resolve conflicts with standard git tools. Your entire edit history is preserved.
+
+## How it fits together
+
+A Laputa vault is a collection of markdown files with YAML frontmatter. The `type` field in the frontmatter determines what kind of entity the note represents. Wiki-links (`[[Note Title]]`) create a web of connections between notes. The app provides a visual interface on top of these files — a rich editor, sidebar navigation, inspector panel, and filtered views — but the files remain the source of truth.
