Why it exists
Large vaults get hard to inspect through normal file trees. This gives the vault a fast, purpose-built reading and navigation surface.
Useful for
Personal knowledge systems, agent context stores, project archives, research corpora, and mixed-format Markdown folders.
How it works
The project frames a vault as a local corpus to inspect: folders, Markdown, mixed file types, and navigation surfaces stay on the machine instead of becoming a remote app.
Current source
GitHub remains the live source for code and release state.
Boundary
This is a viewer/inspection surface. It should not own the canonical vault, mutate private notes, or become a hosted knowledge base by accident.
Next action
Open the repository when you need the current app code or release state. Use this page to understand the local-first viewer idea before evaluating the implementation.
Design direction
Keep the data local, make inspection fast, and treat GitHub/code as secondary to the human browsing experience.
The website gives the human overview; GitHub remains the technical source for code and release state.
GitHub remains the source for code, releases, issues, and the latest technical details.
