- File → Import with MarkItDown (Any Format)…: PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX,
Outlook .msg/.eml, EPUB, images, CSV/JSON/XML, ZIP (audio/OCR via the
[all] extras) — verified live against HTML, XLSX (our own exporter's
output), and PDF fixtures
- Command auto-resolution with caching: markitdown binary → python -m
markitdown → python3 -m markitdown
- SEC-1 argv discipline (execFile only, user paths never through a shell),
50MB cap, 120s timeout, sanitized errors that surface markitdown's own
"pip install 'markitdown[pdf]'" hints for missing format extras
- Output lands next to the source as <name>.md (numeric suffix, never
overwrites) and opens in a new tab; markitdown:available/convert IPC
allowlisted for renderer flows
- Help → Dependencies lists MarkItDown; README/UPDATES updated (v4.6.1)
12 new tests (629 green); lint clean; clean app boot
- AI Assistant plugin: multi-provider chat (OpenAI/Anthropic/Ollama/LM Studio),
summarize/improve/translate commands, proofread via ai:analyze; calls
proxied through main so API keys stay out of the renderer
- Collaboration plugin: anchor-based comments in .comments/ sidecars with
drift detection and F8 navigation
- Local knowledge base: [[wiki-links]] with click-to-create + Backlinks panel
- Crash recovery: debounced session snapshots with restore prompt on launch
- Version history: pre-save snapshots, History panel with restore/diff/delete
- Real PDF encryption: swap pdf-lib for @cantoo/pdf-lib (probe-driven UI)
- XLSX export (native workbooks via JSZip), ODT headers/footers + page size
- Offline KaTeX (bundled CSS+fonts), local-first PlantUML rendering
- Editor: vim mode toggle, snippet Tab-expansion, zen word-goal setter,
writing heatmap, writing-studio panels wired with rail icons
- Quick Note global scratchpad (Ctrl+Alt+Q), markdownconverter:// deep links,
REPL first-run confirmation
- Fix: Ctrl+Shift+P collision, pandoc converter availability check, CLI
dangling --css/--reference-doc flags, dead converter button
8 new test suites; 613 tests green; lint clean
