Note Mark V1 now stores notes as regular files and folders; SQLite is limited to metadata caching and credential storage.

Why it matters: The shift makes deployments simpler but breaks any use of SQLite as a full database after this release, requiring migration planning.

Summary

AI summary

Note Mark V1 stores notes on the filesystem and only uses SQLite for metadata caching and credentials.
