Markdown Workspace
Your story is a folder of Markdown files you can open, edit and search.
The workspace comes first and works without any AI. The Storyteller is attached to it, not the other way around.
The Editor
- Tree of files and folders, with new note and new folder actions.
- Autosave with a visible Saved status.
- Preview of the rendered Markdown.
- Search with
⌘K(orCtrl K): whole-note search across the project. - History of revisions you can restore. Deleting a file or folder is permanent, after a confirmation.
- Conflicts: if the file changed elsewhere while you were typing, you are asked what to keep. Nothing is silently overwritten.
Chat and Files
The header has a Chat / Files switch. A story opens on the chat. /settings opens the files. On a phone each view fills the screen.
How the Storyteller Uses the Files
The Storyteller does not have a private copy of your world. It reads the project's files and writes through the same transactional path you do, carrying the expected revision. Your edits and its changes sit in the same revision history.
Notes Projects
Projects created before this version as plain notes keep working. New projects are always stories with the Storyteller.
Other Tools
The workspace code is a separate package, @bardo/markdown, with plain interfaces for paths and file contents. A future Notion or Obsidian client could use those interfaces. No such connector exists today.
