Notes live as markdown in a local vault.
Link them with [[wiki-links]].
The graph draws every connection.
[[TracesAI]] can read and write
those files locally. Or sign in
with Codex, Grok, or Claude.
Saved to disk. No cloud vault.

GRAPH

Wiki-links in 3D

A force-directed graph of your notes. Starfield, bloom, collapse, or fullscreen. Built with React Three Fiber.

EDITOR

Markdown that stays files

CodeMirror 6 with [[wiki-links]], preview, and auto-save. Notes are markdown in a local vault, not a proprietary database.

TRACESAI

Chat that can edit the vault

Sign in with Codex, Grok CLI, or Claude. Or use Ollama, or API keys for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and xAI. If a CLI is missing or logged out, chat stops. The assistant can read and write notes.

LOCAL-FIRST

Four panels, your disk

Files, Graph, Notes, Chat. Collapse and resize them. Electron desktop app. No App Store build, no hosted SaaS.

Clone it. Run it.

Working prototype. Electron, Next.js 15, React Three Fiber. MIT license. You need Node 18+, pnpm, and optionally Ollama for local models.
