When viewing a Type note (e.g. "Project"), the Properties panel now shows an Instances section listing all notes of that type, sorted by modified_at descending. Trashed instances are excluded, archived instances are dimmed. Display capped at 50 with count badge for large collections. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

|
||
```
|
||
|
||
- **Sidebar** (150-400px, resizable): Top-level filters (All Notes, Favorites, Changes, Pulse) and collapsible type-based section groups. Each type can have a custom icon, color, sort, and visibility set via its type document in `type/`.
|
||
- **Note List / Pulse View** (200-500px, resizable): When a section group or filter is selected, shows filtered notes with snippets, modified dates, and status indicators. When Pulse filter is active, shows `PulseView` — a chronological git activity feed grouped by day.
|
||
- **Editor** (flex, fills remaining space): Tab bar with modified dots, breadcrumb bar with word count, BlockNote rich text editor with wikilink support. Can toggle to diff view (modified files) or raw CodeMirror view. Decomposed into `Editor` (orchestrator), `EditorContent`, `EditorRightPanel`, `SingleEditorView`, with hooks `useDiffMode`, `useEditorFocus`, `useEditorSave`, `useRawMode`.
|
||
- **Inspector / AI Chat / AI Agent** (200-500px or 40px collapsed): Toggles between Inspector (frontmatter, relationships, instances, backlinks, git history), AI Chat panel (API-based), and AI Agent panel (Claude CLI subprocess with tool execution). The Sparkle icon in the breadcrumb bar toggles between them. When viewing a Type note, the Inspector shows an **Instances** section listing all notes of that type (sorted by modified_at desc, capped at 50).
|
||
|
||
Panels are separated by `ResizeHandle` components that support drag-to-resize.
|
||
|
||
## AI System
|
||
|
||
Laputa has two AI interfaces with distinct architectures:
|
||
|
||
### AI Chat (AIChatPanel)
|
||
|
||
Simple chat mode — no tool execution, streaming text responses.
|
||
|
||
1. **Frontend** (`AIChatPanel` + `useAIChat` hook) — UI and state management
|
||
2. **API Proxy** (Vite middleware in dev, Rust `ai_chat` command in Tauri) — routes to Anthropic
|
||
3. **Context picker** — selected notes sent as system context with token estimation
|
||
|
||
### AI Agent (AiPanel)
|
||
|
||
Full agent mode — spawns Claude CLI as a subprocess with tool access and MCP vault integration.
|
||
|
||
1. **Frontend** (`AiPanel` + `useAiAgent` hook) — streaming UI with reasoning blocks, tool action cards, and response display
|
||
2. **Backend** (`claude_cli.rs`) — spawns `claude` binary with `--output-format stream-json`, parses NDJSON events
|
||
3. **MCP Integration** — passes vault MCP config via `--mcp-config` flag so the agent can search, read, and modify vault notes
|
||
|
||
#### Agent Event Flow
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
User sends message in AiPanel
|
||
→ useAiAgent.sendMessage(text, references)
|
||
→ buildContextSnapshot(activeNote, linkedNotes, openTabs)
|
||
→ invoke('stream_claude_agent', { message, systemPrompt, vaultPath })
|
||
→ Rust spawns: claude -p <msg> --output-format stream-json --mcp-config <json>
|
||
→ NDJSON lines parsed into ClaudeStreamEvent variants:
|
||
Init, TextDelta, ThinkingDelta, ToolStart, ToolDone, Result, Error, Done
|
||
→ Events emitted via Tauri: app_handle.emit("claude-agent-stream", &event)
|
||
→ Frontend listener routes events:
|
||
onText → accumulate response (revealed on Done)
|
||
onThinking → show reasoning block (collapsed on first text)
|
||
onToolStart → add AiActionCard with spinner
|
||
onToolDone → update card with output
|
||
onDone → reveal full response, detect file operations
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### File Operation Detection
|
||
|
||
When the agent writes or edits vault files, `useAiAgent` detects this from tool inputs (Write/Edit tool JSON) and calls `onFileCreated` or `onFileModified` callbacks to trigger vault reload.
|
||
|
||
### Context Building
|
||
|
||
Both AI modes use context from the active note and linked entries. The agent panel (`ai-context.ts`) builds a structured JSON snapshot:
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"activeNote": { "path", "title", "type", "frontmatter", "content" },
|
||
"linkedNotes": [{ "path", "title", "content" }],
|
||
"openTabs": [{ "title", "snippet" }],
|
||
"vaultMetadata": { "noteTypes", "stats", "filter" },
|
||
"references": [{ "title", "path", "type" }]
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Token budget: 60% of 180k context limit (~108k tokens max). Active note gets priority, then linked notes, then truncation.
|
||
|
||
### Models (Chat mode)
|
||
|
||
| Model | ID | Use case |
|
||
|-------|----|----------|
|
||
| Haiku 3.5 | `claude-3-5-haiku-20241022` | Fast, cheap — default |
|
||
| Sonnet 4 | `claude-sonnet-4-20250514` | Balanced |
|
||
| Opus 4 | `claude-opus-4-20250514` | Most capable |
|
||
|
||
### API Key Management
|
||
|
||
- Stored in app settings (`~/.config/com.laputa.app/settings.json`) under `anthropic_key`
|
||
- Configurable via Settings panel (also supports `openai_key`, `google_key`)
|
||
- Claude CLI (agent mode) uses its own authentication — no API key needed
|
||
|
||
## MCP Server
|
||
|
||
The MCP server (`mcp-server/`) exposes vault operations as tools for AI assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client).
|
||
|
||
### Tool Surface (14 tools)
|
||
|
||
| Tool | Params | Description |
|
||
|------|--------|-------------|
|
||
| `open_note` | `path` | Open and read a note by relative path |
|
||
| `read_note` | `path` | Read note content (alias for `open_note`) |
|
||
| `create_note` | `path, title, [type]` | Create new note with title and optional type frontmatter |
|
||
| `search_notes` | `query, [limit]` | Search notes by title or content substring |
|
||
| `append_to_note` | `path, text` | Append text to end of existing note |
|
||
| `edit_note_frontmatter` | `path, patch` | Merge key-value patch into YAML frontmatter |
|
||
| `delete_note` | `path` | Delete a note file from the vault |
|
||
| `link_notes` | `source_path, property, target_title` | Add a target to an array property in frontmatter |
|
||
| `list_notes` | `[type_filter], [sort]` | List all notes, optionally filtered by type |
|
||
| `vault_context` | — | Get vault summary: entity types + 20 recent notes + configFiles |
|
||
| `ui_open_note` | `path` | Open a note in the Laputa UI editor |
|
||
| `ui_open_tab` | `path` | Open a note in a new UI tab |
|
||
| `ui_highlight` | `element, [path]` | Highlight a UI element (editor, tab, properties, notelist) |
|
||
| `ui_set_filter` | `type` | Set the sidebar filter to a specific type |
|
||
|
||
### Transports
|
||
|
||
- **stdio** — standard MCP transport for Claude Code / Cursor (`node mcp-server/index.js`)
|
||
- **WebSocket** — live bridge for Laputa app integration:
|
||
- Port **9710**: Tool bridge — AI/Claude clients call vault tools here
|
||
- Port **9711**: UI bridge — Frontend listens for UI action broadcasts from MCP tools
|
||
|
||
### Auto-Registration
|
||
|
||
On app startup, Laputa automatically registers itself as an MCP server in:
|
||
- `~/.claude/mcp.json` (Claude Code)
|
||
- `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (Cursor)
|
||
|
||
Registration is non-destructive (additive, preserves other servers) and uses `upsert` semantics. The `useMcpStatus` hook tracks registration state (`checking | installed | not_installed | no_claude_cli`).
|
||
|
||

|
||
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### WebSocket Bridge
|
||
|
||
The WebSocket bridge enables real-time vault operations from both the frontend and external AI clients:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Frontend (useMcpBridge) ←→ ws://localhost:9710 ←→ ws-bridge.js ←→ vault.js
|
||
MCP stdio tools ←→ ws://localhost:9711 ←→ Frontend UI actions (useAiActivity)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Tool bridge protocol** (port 9710):
|
||
- Request: `{ "id": "req-1", "tool": "search_notes", "args": { "query": "test" } }`
|
||
- Response: `{ "id": "req-1", "result": { ... } }`
|
||
|
||
**UI bridge protocol** (port 9711):
|
||
- Broadcast: `{ "type": "ui_action", "action": "open_note", "path": "..." }`
|
||
- `useAiActivity` hook receives these and applies them (highlight with 800ms feedback, open note, set filter, etc.)
|
||
|
||
### Rust MCP Module
|
||
|
||
`src-tauri/src/mcp.rs` manages the MCP server lifecycle:
|
||
|
||
| Function | Purpose |
|
||
|----------|---------|
|
||
| `spawn_ws_bridge(vault_path)` | Spawns `ws-bridge.js` as child process with VAULT_PATH env |
|
||
| `register_mcp(vault_path)` | Writes Laputa entry to Claude Code and Cursor MCP configs |
|
||
| `upsert_mcp_config(path, entry)` | Atomic config file update (create/merge, preserves others) |
|
||
|
||
The `WsBridgeChild` state wrapper in `lib.rs` ensures the bridge process is killed on app exit via `RunEvent::Exit` handler.
|
||
|
||
## Search & Indexing
|
||
|
||
### Search Engine
|
||
|
||
Search uses the external `qmd` binary (semantic search engine) with three modes:
|
||
|
||
| Mode | Command | Description |
|
||
|------|---------|-------------|
|
||
| `keyword` | `qmd search` | Term matching (default) |
|
||
| `semantic` | `qmd vsearch` | Vector similarity search |
|
||
| `hybrid` | `qmd query` | Combined keyword + semantic |
|
||
|
||
### Indexing Flow
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Vault opened
|
||
→ check_index_status() → parse qmd status output
|
||
→ if stale or missing:
|
||
→ start_indexing() (two phases):
|
||
Phase 1 (Scanning): qmd update — scan all .md files
|
||
Phase 2 (Embedding): qmd embed — generate vector embeddings
|
||
→ Progress streamed via Tauri "indexing-progress" event
|
||
→ Metadata saved to .laputa-index.json (last_indexed_commit, timestamp)
|
||
→ run_incremental_update() for subsequent changes
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Embedding failure is non-fatal — keyword search still works.
|
||
|
||
### qmd Binary Resolution
|
||
|
||
1. Bundled macOS app resource: `<app>/Contents/Resources/qmd/qmd`
|
||
2. Dev mode: `CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR/resources/qmd/qmd`
|
||
3. System locations: `~/.bun/bin/qmd`, `/usr/local/bin/qmd`, `/opt/homebrew/bin/qmd`
|
||
4. PATH lookup via `which qmd`
|
||
5. Auto-install via `bun install -g qmd` if missing
|
||
|
||
## Vault Cache System
|
||
|
||
The vault cache (`src-tauri/src/vault/cache.rs`) accelerates vault scanning using git-based incremental updates.
|
||
|
||
### Cache File
|
||
|
||
`.laputa-cache.json` at vault root. Stores: vault path, git HEAD commit hash, all VaultEntry objects. Version: v5 (bumped on VaultEntry field changes to force full rescan).
|
||
|
||
### Three Cache Strategies
|
||
|
||
1. **Same Commit (Cache Hit)**: Git HEAD matches cached hash → only re-parse uncommitted changed files via `git status --porcelain`
|
||
2. **Different Commit (Incremental Update)**: Uses `git diff <old>..<new> --name-only` to find changed files + uncommitted changes → selective re-parse
|
||
3. **No Cache / Corrupt Cache (Full Scan)**: Recursive `walkdir` of all `.md` files → full parse
|
||
|
||
Cache auto-excludes itself from git via `.git/info/exclude`.
|
||
|
||
## Theme System
|
||
|
||
See [THEMING.md](./THEMING.md) for the full theme system documentation.
|
||
|
||
### Two-Layer Architecture
|
||
|
||
1. **Global CSS variables** (`src/index.css`): App-wide colors, borders, backgrounds. Bridged to Tailwind v4 via `@theme inline`.
|
||
2. **Editor theme** (`src/theme.json`): BlockNote-specific typography. Flattened to CSS vars by `useEditorTheme`.
|
||
|
||
### Vault-Based Themes
|
||
|
||
Themes are markdown notes in the `theme/` folder with `type: Theme` frontmatter (`Is A: Theme` accepted as legacy alias). Each frontmatter property becomes a CSS variable. Managed by `useThemeManager` hook and the `src-tauri/src/theme/` Rust module (create, seed, defaults).
|
||
|
||
- **Vault settings**: `.laputa/settings.json` stores the active theme reference
|
||
- **Legacy support**: `_themes/*.json` files still supported for backward compatibility
|
||
- **Built-in themes**: Default (light), Dark, Minimal — auto-seeded on vault open
|
||
- **Live preview**: Re-applies when the active theme note is saved
|
||
|
||
## Vault Management
|
||
|
||
### Vault List
|
||
|
||
Persisted at `~/.config/com.laputa.app/vaults.json`:
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"vaults": [{ "label": "My Vault", "path": "/path/to/vault" }],
|
||
"active_vault": "/path/to/vault",
|
||
"hidden_defaults": []
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Managed by `useVaultSwitcher` hook. Switching vaults closes all tabs and resets sidebar.
|
||
|
||
### Vault Config
|
||
|
||
Per-vault UI settings stored in `config/ui.config.md` (YAML frontmatter in a markdown note):
|
||
- `zoom`: Float zoom level (0.8–1.5)
|
||
- `view_mode`: "all" | "editor-list" | "editor-only"
|
||
- `tag_colors`, `status_colors`: Custom color overrides
|
||
- `property_display_modes`: Property display preferences
|
||
|
||
### Getting Started Vault
|
||
|
||
On first launch, `useOnboarding` checks if the default vault exists. If not, shows `WelcomeScreen` with two options:
|
||
- **Create Getting Started vault** → calls `create_getting_started_vault()` Tauri command
|
||
- **Open an existing folder** → system file picker
|
||
|
||
### GitHub OAuth Integration
|
||
|
||
Implements GitHub Device Authorization Flow for cloning/creating GitHub-backed vaults.
|
||
|
||
**Flow:**
|
||
1. User clicks "Login with GitHub" in Settings panel
|
||
2. `github_device_flow_start()` returns a user code + verification URL
|
||
3. User authorizes at `github.com/login/device`
|
||
4. App polls `github_device_flow_poll()` until authorized
|
||
5. Token stored in `~/.config/com.laputa.app/settings.json`
|
||
|
||
**Vault operations:**
|
||
- `GitHubVaultModal`: Clone existing repo or create new private/public repo
|
||
- `clone_repo()`: Clones with token-injected HTTPS URL
|
||
- Token persists for future git push/pull operations
|
||
|
||
## Pulse View
|
||
|
||
`PulseView` is a git activity feed that replaces the NoteList when the Pulse filter is selected.
|
||
|
||
- Groups commits by day ("Today", "Yesterday", or full date)
|
||
- Shows commit message, short hash, timestamp, and changed files
|
||
- Files have status icons (added/modified/deleted) and are clickable to open in editor
|
||
- Links to GitHub commits when `githubUrl` is available
|
||
- Infinite scroll pagination (20 commits per page) via Intersection Observer
|
||
|
||
Backend: `get_vault_pulse` Tauri command parses `git log` with `--name-status`.
|
||
|
||
## Data Flow
|
||
|
||
### Startup Sequence
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
1. Tauri setup:
|
||
a. run_startup_tasks() → purge trash, migrate frontmatter, seed themes, migrate AGENTS.md, seed config files, register MCP
|
||
b. spawn_ws_bridge() → start MCP WebSocket bridge (ports 9710, 9711)
|
||
2. App mounts
|
||
3. useOnboarding checks vault exists → WelcomeScreen if not
|
||
4. useVaultLoader fires:
|
||
a. invoke('list_vault', { path }) → scan_vault_cached() → VaultEntry[]
|
||
b. Load modified files via invoke('get_modified_files')
|
||
c. useMcpStatus → register MCP if needed
|
||
d. useThemeManager → load and apply active theme
|
||
e. useIndexing → check index status, trigger incremental update if needed
|
||
5. User clicks note in NoteList
|
||
6. useNoteActions.handleSelectNote:
|
||
a. invoke('get_note_content') → raw markdown
|
||
b. Add tab { entry, content } to tabs state
|
||
c. Set activeTabPath
|
||
7. Editor renders BlockNoteTab:
|
||
a. splitFrontmatter(content) → [yaml, body]
|
||
b. preProcessWikilinks(body) → replaces [[target]] with tokens
|
||
c. editor.tryParseMarkdownToBlocks(preprocessed)
|
||
d. injectWikilinks(blocks) → replaces tokens with wikilink nodes
|
||
e. editor.replaceBlocks()
|
||
8. Inspector renders frontmatter parsed from content
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Auto-Save Flow
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Editor content changes
|
||
→ useEditorSave detects change (debounced)
|
||
→ serialize BlockNote blocks → markdown
|
||
→ postProcessWikilinks → restore [[target]] syntax
|
||
→ invoke('save_note_content', { path, content })
|
||
→ Update tab status indicator
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Git Sync Flow
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
useAutoSync (configurable interval, default from settings):
|
||
→ invoke('git_pull') → GitPullResult
|
||
→ if conflicts → ConflictResolverModal
|
||
→ if fast-forward → reload vault
|
||
→ invoke('git_push') → GitPushResult
|
||
|
||
Manual commit:
|
||
→ CommitDialog → invoke('git_commit', { message })
|
||
→ invoke('git_push')
|
||
→ Reload modified files
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

## Mock Layer
|
||
|
||
When running outside Tauri (browser at `localhost:5173`), `src/mock-tauri.ts` provides a transparent mock layer:
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
if (isTauri()) {
|
||
result = await invoke<T>('command_name', { args })
|
||
} else {
|
||
result = await mockInvoke<T>('command_name', { args })
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The mock layer includes sample entries across all entity types, full markdown content with realistic frontmatter, mock git history, mock AI responses, and mock pulse commits.
|
||
|
||
## State Management
|
||
|
||
No Redux or global context. State lives in the root `App.tsx` and custom hooks:
|
||
|
||
| State owner | State | Purpose |
|
||
|-------------|-------|---------|
|
||
| `App.tsx` | `selection`, panel widths, dialog visibility, toast, view mode | UI state |
|
||
| `useVaultLoader` | `entries`, `allContent`, `modifiedFiles` | Vault data |
|
||
| `useNoteActions` | `tabs`, `activeTabPath` | Open tabs and note operations |
|
||
| `useTabManagement` | Tab ordering, pinning, swapping | Tab lifecycle |
|
||
| `useVaultSwitcher` | `vaultPath`, `extraVaults` | Vault switching |
|
||
| `useThemeManager` | `themes`, `activeThemeId`, `isDark` | Theme state |
|
||
| `useAIChat` | `messages`, `isStreaming` | AI chat conversation |
|
||
| `useAiAgent` | `messages`, `status`, tool actions | AI agent conversation |
|
||
| `useAutoSync` | Sync interval, pull/push state | Git auto-sync |
|
||
| `useIndexing` | Index status, progress | Search indexing |
|
||
| `useSettings` | App settings (API keys, GitHub token) | Persistent settings |
|
||
| `useVaultConfig` | Per-vault UI preferences | Vault-specific config |
|
||
|
||
Data flows unidirectionally: `App` passes data and callbacks as props to child components. No child-to-child communication — everything goes through `App`.

## Auto-Release & In-App Updates
|
||
|
||
### Release Pipeline
|
||
|
||
Every push to `main` triggers `.github/workflows/release.yml`:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
push to main
|
||
→ version job: compute 0.YYYYMMDD.RUN_NUMBER
|
||
→ build job (matrix: aarch64 + x86_64):
|
||
→ pnpm install, stamp version, pnpm build, tauri build --target <arch>
|
||
→ upload .app, .tar.gz + .sig, .dmg as artifacts
|
||
→ release job:
|
||
→ download both arch artifacts
|
||
→ lipo aarch64 + x86_64 → universal binary
|
||
→ create universal .dmg + signed updater tarball
|
||
→ generate latest.json (per-arch + universal platform entries)
|
||
→ publish GitHub Release with all assets + auto-generated notes
|
||
→ pages job:
|
||
→ build static HTML release history page
|
||
→ deploy to gh-pages
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Versioning
|
||
|
||
Format: `0.YYYYMMDD.GITHUB_RUN_NUMBER` (e.g. `0.20260223.42`). Stamped into `tauri.conf.json` and `Cargo.toml` dynamically.
|
||
|
||
### In-App Updates
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
App startup (3s delay)
|
||
→ useUpdater.check()
|
||
→ idle (no update) → no UI
|
||
→ available → UpdateBanner with release notes + "Update Now"
|
||
→ downloading → progress bar
|
||
→ ready → "Restart to apply" + Restart Now
|
||
→ network error → fail silently
|
||
```
