Claude Code integration

Connect your existing Claude Code setup. Run claude setup-token to authenticate and start working immediately.

File-first

Your notes are just files. Open them anywhere, sync them however you want, keep them forever.

Plain text, full control

Everything is markdown with frontmatter. Open your files in any editor. No proprietary formats, no lock-in.

Wiki links and @ references

Point noetect at any folder. Organize however you want. We work with your files — we don't take them over.
