Anthropic-compatible provider:
- New 'anthropic-compatible' option for any base URL speaking the Anthropic
messages schema (LiteLLM proxies, Bedrock gateways, local servers)
- Sends x-api-key AND Bearer auth when a key is set (gateway-friendly,
harmless for the official API); keyless proxies supported
- Tolerates base URLs with or without a trailing /v1 segment
- Settings modal, manifest, and provider docs updated
Runtime bug fixes found by booting the app (run-to-verify pass):
- PDF editor: File > Open PDF sends operation=null which matched no switch
case and crashed on getElementById(undefined); now defaults to the merge
section
- backlinks-panel: wrong require depth (../../utils -> ../utils) threw at
panel registration time
- writing-studio stack was written against a synchronous settings backend but
the real one is IPC-backed: GoalTracker/SnapshotManager/ProjectManager and
all four panels now await; JSON.parse(Promise) crashes eliminated
- manuscript panel used window.prompt (unavailable in Electron); replaced
with an inline dialog
- collaboration comment-store/save-load made async to match its IPC IO
617/617 tests green; 4 consecutive clean app boots (no uncaught errors)
- 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
Add context.formats.registerExportFormat(id, opts) to PluginContext,
backed by a new FormatRegistry (mirrors PluginRegistry's Map-based
shape). Plugins register namespaced (${pluginId}:${id}) export
formats with a label/extension/handler; the writing-studio built-in
plugin registers a trivial "sprint-summary" .txt export as a
worked example.
The plugin system lives entirely in the renderer process while the
Export menu is built in main.js, so wiring formats into the menu
required a small IPC round-trip: renderer sends format metadata to
main after plugin load (main rebuilds the menu via the already-
idempotent createMenu()), and a menu click sends the resolved save
path back to the renderer, which is the only process holding the
plugin's handler function.

- Normalize pandoc command parsing with path.basename() to support bundled binary paths
- Use bundled pandoc binary in convertWithPandoc instead of relying on PATH
- Forward includeSubfolders checkbox state from renderer to main process
- Add pandoc availability check before batch conversion
- Re-enable Start button when batch conversion completes
- Clean up obsolete dist build artifact causing test snapshot warning
- Bump version to 4.4.4
- Add plugin system bootstrap in renderer.js after sidebar/commands init
- Wire status bar DOM insertion, editor API, and IPC adapters
- Add plugin-settings:get/set IPC channels to preload allowlist
- Add IPC handlers in main process using existing settings store
- Fix eqeqeq warning in EventBus.hasHandler

- PluginContext: scoped API with crash-safe command wrappers
- PluginRegistry: lifecycle management with graceful init failure
- SettingsStore: plugin-scoped key/value via IPC backend
- Export hooks: pre/post hooks on registry for cross-plugin integration
