v0.1.20

latest

Deep search answers in about a second, and short queries find the right note again.

Desktop

  • Smart search now keeps its engine resident between queries: the first deep search of a session takes a couple of seconds and the rest land in about one, instead of reloading 1.2 GB of models every time.
  • The engine releases that memory after five idle minutes and shuts down entirely after ten, so nothing stays resident while you are not searching.
  • Short queries like a single word no longer come back empty — the closest note is always shown, because a two-character query scores low against a long note even when it is exactly the one you meant.
  • Switching the active Vault now rebuilds the smart search index instead of quietly returning nothing.
  • Deep search results no longer show internal snippet markers.

v0.1.19

Command K search finds anything by name, tag, or meaning — including what's inside your notes.

Desktop

  • A global ⌘K palette searches titles, file names, descriptions, post text, and Tag names instantly, and now also matches words inside note bodies.
  • Type # to filter by Tag: selected Tags become chips that scope further search, jump straight to pages and saved views, or apply type filters without leaving the keyboard.
  • Quick notes moved into the palette: ⌘⇧N inside Post opens an inline note editor whose draft survives closing, while the shortcut still opens the standalone capture window from other apps.
  • Smart search (experimental) adds fully on-device semantic deep search over note contents: enable it in Settings → Experimental with a one-time model download of about 1.3 GB — no other setup required.
  • Deep search runs automatically once you pause typing, filters out low-relevance filler, and keeps its index fresh after every Vault sync or note edit.
  • Settings gained an Experimental section, a HuggingFace mirror option for model downloads, and click-to-reveal paths for the database and model storage.

v0.1.18

Quick Capture turns passing thoughts into ordinary tagged Markdown from anywhere.

Desktop

  • Quick Capture opens from the asset board or a system-global shortcut, saves an ordinary Markdown file into the active Vault, and optionally reuses or creates Tags without interrupting the current workflow.
  • Draft text and Tags survive dismissal, Enter saves, Shift+Enter adds a line break, and partial Tag failures can be retried without creating a duplicate Markdown file.
  • The Quick Capture shortcut can now be changed in Settings; Post checks the candidate registration for conflicts and restores the previous working shortcut when the change cannot be applied.
  • Video detail players no longer show a thin frame along their sides.

v0.1.17

A new 3D Asset Map turns the active Vault into an explorable landscape.

Desktop

  • The old knowledge graph is now a full-space 3D Asset Map: real Vault assets appear as lightweight particles, Tag-led regions organize the landscape, and hill height reflects only local asset density.
  • The opening, top, and reset views fit the full asset field, while hovering keeps the preview anchored to its particle and reveals only that asset's stored relationships.
  • Hover previews now reuse the same complete cards as Asset Management, including thumbnails, excerpts, sources, and Tags, with rich data loaded only for the current asset.

v0.1.16

Smarter X video capture, offline-ready browser tools, and smoother video details.

Desktop

  • Local and YouTube video details now keep the familiar card cover visible through the opening transition and player startup, then reveal playback only after it actually begins.
  • Captured X videos are streamed, checked for a complete playable video track, and saved with disk-space protection and same-policy fallback handling.

Extension

  • X video capture now offers Smart HD, Highest Quality, and Space Saver choices when useful, with size warnings plus existing and newly created Tag selection in the shared Popup.
  • The active Vault and Tag list are cached for right-click capture while Desktop is closed, with clearer recovery errors and isolated Development and Production connections.

Website

  • Added a dedicated privacy policy covering the Chrome extension's permissions, local data handling, and network requests.

v0.1.15

Hover-only asset metadata and tidier background task status.

Desktop

  • Asset metadata now stays out of the detail canvas until the pointer reaches the right edge, then slides in as a temporary card and dismisses when the pointer moves away. A one-time localized hint introduces the interaction.
  • Long running-task names in the footer now stay within a stable 220px slot, truncate with an ellipsis, and expose the full text on hover.

v0.1.14

Animated image previews and more reliable, higher-quality X capture.

Desktop

  • Animated GIF, WebP, and AVIF assets now use a still first frame until hovered on the asset board or in detail, with format badges and reduced-motion support.
  • HEIC images now receive a browser-compatible preview while keeping the original vault file unchanged.

Extension

  • X Post and right-click image capture now save original-resolution media instead of displayed thumbnail variants, and capture-time tags are applied to the Post and its imported media.
  • When Post is closed, user-triggered Chrome save actions can open Desktop through a confirmed post:// prompt and continue the original save after the app becomes available.

v0.1.13

More reliable multi-image capture and sharper asset previews.

Desktop

  • Saving several images rapidly from the extension now gives every file a unique reserved path, preventing later imports from replacing or reopening an older asset.
  • Small images now render from their original source without upscaling or recompression, AVIF and SVG covers display directly, and large PNG previews remain lossless for sharper text and transparency.

v0.1.12

A new MDX blog, higher-fidelity X Post capture, and newest-added-first asset browsing.

Website

  • Added a statically generated MDX blog with article pages, table of contents, sitemap entries, and an image optimization pipeline for R2-hosted media.

Desktop

  • The asset board, saved views, and live CLI filters now default to newest added first, with separate added, modified, and source-created date sorts.
  • X Post cards now show the captured author profile photo and retain the existing author-initial fallback when an image is missing or unavailable.

Extension

  • X Post capture expands visible Show more text and resolves complete long-form Note content from provider metadata or server-rendered records, while preserving a partial warning when no complete source is available.

v0.1.11

Chrome extension download button on the website, and Desktop now wires itself up to talk to it automatically.

Website

  • Added a Get the Chrome Extension button next to Download Post in the hero and footer, linking to the Chrome Web Store listing.

Desktop

  • Packaged installs now register the extension's native messaging bridge automatically on launch, so Desktop and the published Chrome extension can talk to each other without any manual setup.

v0.1.10

Video card duration badges count down while hover preview plays.

Desktop

  • Hovering a video card now ticks the top-right duration badge down with remaining time, then restores the full duration when the pointer leaves.

v0.1.9

Video duration badges backfill for assets that already had thumbnails.

Desktop

  • Ready thumbnail cache hits now probe and store missing video durations without regenerating frames, so older videos get the duration badge after prewarm.
  • Failed duration probes record a sentinel so the indexer does not retry forever.

v0.1.8

Clearer drag-and-drop import feedback, plus a richer background-task footer.

Desktop

  • Dropping files onto the window shows hover, blocked, in-progress, and done/failed states, with a bottom-right import progress pill.
  • Background tasks show file or subject names, fold queued work into In progress, and summarize recent non-import completions in a 30-minute digest.
  • Failed thumbnail tasks can be retried from the footer; short thumbnail bursts from the watcher and extension imports coalesce into one queue.

v0.1.7

Asset detail shows every bound tag and lets you bind, unbind, or create tags inline.

Desktop

  • Asset detail lists all tags on an asset, not only the primary one used on masonry cards.
  • Use + to open an inline searchable ComboBox: pick an existing vault tag, or type a name and press Enter to create and bind.
  • Remove a tag from the asset with the pill control; the vault tag definition stays intact.

v0.1.6

Chrome extension zip on every GitHub Release, plus an agent skill for post-cli vault automation.

Extension

  • Each Mac release also publishes Post-<version>-chrome-extension.zip for Load unpacked / store packaging.
  • The zip includes INSTALL.md with Desktop companion and native-host registration steps.

Agents

  • skills/post teaches agents how to drive post-cli, the data model, and the vault .post/ folder for non-asset keep files.
  • Install with: npx skills add BarrySong97/post -s post (Codex: --path skills/post)

v0.1.5

Chinese and English UI language switching, plus asset detail that opens without leaving the board.

Desktop

  • Settings → Language can follow the system or lock to 中文 / English; chrome labels, filters, toasts, and dialogs switch with it.
  • Opening an asset keeps the masonry board mounted underneath; Back closes the overlay and restores scroll.
  • Deep links to /assets/:id soft-redirect into the same overlay on the home route.

v0.1.4

Smoother success toasts, more reliable top-chrome window dragging, and less accidental text selection while moving the window.

Desktop

  • Success toasts after delete and edit actions stay in step with the asset list refresh, so feedback no longer races ahead of the board.
  • Toast enter animation is retained and no longer competes with modal close or heavy list reloads on the same frames.
  • Dragging the top window chrome is less likely to select text or hit dead zones under empty toast overlays.

v0.1.3

Hidden files are no longer imported as assets, with a one-time cleanup of previously imported ones.

Desktop

  • Hidden files and folders (names starting with a dot, such as .git, .obsidian and .DS_Store) are no longer imported into your asset library.
  • Updating automatically removes asset records that earlier versions imported from these hidden paths; the underlying files in your vault are left untouched.

  • Packaged apps can check for updates and download updates in-app.
