NoteCove NoteCove Beta

Changelog

New features, improvements, and fixes in each release.

v0.3.8

New Features

  • Drag-and-drop reordering — Projects and smart folders in the sidebar can now be reordered via drag-and-drop.
  • Tags on cards — Tags are now displayed directly on note and task cards, so you can see them at a glance without opening the item.
  • Task detail breadcrumb — The task detail panel now shows a breadcrumb with the storage directory and folder path for better navigation context.
  • CRDT health check tool — New notecove-admin crdt-health CLI command for diagnosing data integrity issues.
  • macOS notarization — The app is now notarized by Apple, so macOS Gatekeeper won’t block it on first launch.

Bug Fixes

  • SD deletion cleanup — Removing a storage directory now properly cleans up its associated projects, smart folders, and CRDT documents.
  • Folder navigation — Fixed an issue where clicking on a folder wouldn’t always load the folder contents.
  • Table deletion — Tables in the editor are now easier to delete.
  • Note links from tasks — Clicking a note link from a task body in a project window now correctly opens the note.
  • Task detail in search — Clicking on a task in the kanban/list search results now properly opens the task detail.
  • Task state colors — Task link chips now update their colors when you change a project state’s color.
  • Tag rendering in code — A # character inside backtick-formatted links is no longer incorrectly rendered as a hashtag.
  • Task type on move — Fixed an issue where moving a task to another project could allow selecting “None” as the task type.
  • Dismiss button — Removed the unnecessary close button from task detail when viewing in a normal window.
  • Scroll position — Fixed folder panel scroll position resetting when switching storage directories, performing folder operations, or expanding/collapsing folders.
  • Breadcrumb in linked notes — Opening a note from a task detail link now properly shows the breadcrumb area.
  • CLI note opennotecove note open now opens the correct note.

Data Integrity

  • Write-ahead validation — Singleton CRDTs (projects, folders, smart folders) now validate updates before writing, preventing entry count regressions.
  • CRDT invariant assertions — Runtime assertions verify that project counts remain consistent after load/reload operations.
  • Origin filter exhaustiveness — Internal update origin matching now uses a typed union instead of strings, preventing missed cases.

v0.3.7

New Features

  • Dismissable task detail pane — Task detail can now be dismissed when viewing in the sidebar.
  • Resizable sidebar sections — Sidebar sections (folders, projects, smart folders) can be independently resized and scrolled.
  • Close project window on remote delete — When a project is deleted from another device, its open window automatically closes.
  • Validate task type on project move — Moving a task to a different project now validates and maps the task type correctly.
  • SD selector for smart folders — Smart folder creation now includes a storage directory selector.
  • Add existing SD — You can now point to an existing storage directory folder instead of always creating a new nested one.
  • Description indicator — Task cards now show an asterisk (*) when the task has a description.

Bug Fixes

  • Editor shortcuts — Restored Cmd-E end-of-line behavior in the editor.
  • Dark mode in task previews — Fixed task link preview popup using incorrect theme in dark mode.
  • Keyboard shortcut conflict — Removed Cmd-Shift-N shortcut for new folder (conflicted with system shortcuts).
  • SD path detection — Fixed detection of existing storage directory at combined parent+name path.
  • Kanban column filters — Enforced column filters on explicitly-positioned kanban tasks.
  • Project sync — Fixed task:created broadcast to include full task object for reactive UI updates.
  • Markdown import — Fixed HTML tags appearing in the editor when importing markdown files.
  • Project creation — Fixed project creation failures and cross-arch build issues.
