Two more features from the deferred menu:
Daily-note template gallery:
- src/main/DailyNotesTemplates.js — pure module: listTemplates() /
saveTemplate() / deleteTemplate() / labelFor() with injectable IO.
- src/main/DailyNotes.js — openOrCreate() now accepts seedContent so a
non-default template can seed a NEW note (existing notes never get
clobbered).
- src/main.js — IPC channels daily-templates:list / save / delete /
apply. apply renders the chosen template (with {date}/{weekday}
substitution) and pipes through DailyNotes.openOrCreate.
- src/sidebar/daily-templates-panel.js — gallery UI: list, +New
(prompt for name + content), Use (applies to today's note),
delete (refuses to remove the last template so the default survives).
- src/renderer.js — registers the panel.
- src/index.html — icon (already added).
Pluggable DocQA engine (semantic search hook):
- src/main/SemanticEngine.js — engine interface with defaultEngine() (TF-idF,
always available) and neuralEngine() (lazy @xenova/transformers,
falls back gracefully when the dep is missing). getEngine(name)
resolves either.
- src/main/DocQA.js — ask() is now async and accepts an engine arg.
TF-idF path unchanged; neural path calls engine.rank(question, chunks)
directly. The chunk corpus is built up front regardless of engine so
ranking is consistent.
- src/main.js — doc-qa:ask IPC resolves the engine via SemanticEngine.getEngine(name)
before calling DocQA.ask. The renderer can pass {engine: 'transformers'}
to opt in once @xenova/transformers is installed.
Tests (51 new across this batch):
- tests/main/DailyNotesTemplates.test.js (18): labelFor separators /
edge cases / non-string safety, listTemplates empty / present / sort,
saveTemplate nested dir + .md extension + validation + null content,
deleteTemplate success / missing / validation.
- tests/daily-templates-panel.test.js (12): mount + empty state + list +
XSS safety, Use button (apply + error path), Delete button (success +
last-template guard), New template (save + cancel), refresh.
- tests/main/SemanticEngine.test.js (8): default engine shape + rank
matches WorkspaceSearch, getEngine for tf-idf / unknown / transformers
(graceful fallback when @xenova/transformers missing), parity check.
- DocQA: 5 new tests for engine arg (custom engine.rank called, default
fallback, neural hit shape translation); existing tests updated to
await the now-async ask().
Full suite: 76 suites, 914 tests, lint+format clean.
Activation for the neural engine:
npm install @xenova/transformers
(heavy; ~50 MiB with deps) — then 'transformers' is selectable in
doc-qa:ask. Until then, all calls use TF-idF transparently.

Three more features from the brainstorm menu, built on a shared search
algorithm so the codebase stays small.
- src/main/DailyNotes.js — Zettelkasten-style helper. One YYYY-MM-DD.md
per local date under <userData>/notes/daily/; loads skeleton from
<userData>/notes/templates/daily.md when present (built-in default
otherwise). openOrCreate never clobbers existing content.
- src/main/WorkspaceSearch.js — tag/wikilink-aware content search.
Pure module, injectable-IO tested. Query grammar: bare words,
#tag, @wikilink, "quoted phrases". Facets weight +3 each; prose
terms +1/occurrence capped at 5; edits within 7 days get a recency
nudge. Returns ranked results with snippets.
- src/main/DocQA.js — chunk-level Q&A wrapper over WorkspaceSearch.
cleanQuestion strips question words (what/how/why/...) and verb
noise (write/read/show/tell/...) so they don't drown the ranking.
Returns top-K passages instead of whole-file hits — multiple chunks
from the same file can appear in the answer.
- src/main.js — IPC: daily-notes:open-today, daily-notes:list,
workspace-search:query, doc-qa:ask. Path validation through the
existing validatePath gate; a global Ctrl+Alt+D shortcut creates
today's daily note from anywhere.
- src/preload.js — all four channels added to ALLOWED_SEND_CHANNELS.
Tests (56 new across the three modules):
- tests/main/DailyNotes.test.js (15): dateKey formatting, pathFor,
template load + {date}/{weekday} substitution, openOrCreate +
no-clobber, nested-dir creation, listExisting filtering,
isValidDir rejects NUL/non-string.
- tests/main/WorkspaceSearch.test.js (25): parseQuery grammar,
hasTag/hasWikilink word boundaries, scoreDocument scoring,
per-term spam cap, recency nudge, search ranking + limit +
empty-query short-circuit, bad-input safety.
- tests/main/DocQA.test.js (16): cleanQuestion stripping + facet
preservation, chunkDocument paragraph + hard-split, ask()
top-K, recency tiebreaker, missing-files fallback.
Full suite: 748 tests pass, 66 suites, lint+format clean.
