Full changelog

What's changed

  • Added the bundled zen CLI for terminal-based vault workflows, including note, capture, folder, search, tag, task, archive/trash/restore, vault info, and MCP commands.
  • Added CLI install/uninstall flows in Settings and the command palette, plus in-app Help documentation for the CLI.
  • Consolidated MCP server startup behind zen mcp while keeping the legacy MCP entrypoint compatible.
  • Improved MCP and vault APIs for vault-root mode, including clearer canonical path handling and richer vault metadata.
  • Added vault-root/flat-vault handling so ZenNotes can detect and work directly with markdown files and folders at the vault root.
  • Fixed moving folders such as inbox/demo out to the vault root in root-mode vaults.
  • Added inline note comments with anchored side markers, comment panels, and comment navigation.
  • Fixed active comment highlighting when a comment starts at the first character of a line.
  • Added sidebar multi-select for notes and folders, including Cmd/Ctrl-click toggles, Shift-click ranges, bulk context-menu actions, and multi-item drag payloads.
  • Refined sidebar selection styling so selected rows have a consistent full-width highlight.
  • Added in-app media tabs for images, SVGs, video, audio, PDFs, and other local files instead of opening media externally.
  • Routed media opens from the sidebar, note list, markdown preview, hover preview, and live-preview controls into app tabs.
  • Improved reference pane asset rendering for images, video, audio, PDFs, and generic files.
  • Made Settings taller and cleaned up small UI copy/escaping issues.
