v0.23.0

Chrome now moves on purpose. Toasts, the command palette, the AI panel,
Welcome, AuthGate, the note list, and the sidebar enter through GSAP —
short, quiet, and off when you asked for less motion. Appearance ships
sixteen palettes in Palette Library. The editor gets the GFM and PKM
commands that used to live only in preview or in your head.

Motion

• Events, not decoration. Toast, palette, AI panel, Welcome, AuthGate,
  note list, and sidebar expand use GSAP. Reduced motion and Performance →
  Low skip the tween.
• Motion plugin. The scale you set in Plugins also scales GSAP. 0 is
  instant.

Palettes

• Palette Library. Nord, Snow, Mocha, Latte, Tokyo, Dracula, Evergreen,
  Grove, Dawn, Atom, Monokai, Ayu, Flexoki, Graphite, Void, and Cobalt.
  Enable the plugin, pick one in Appearance. Core still ships Default
  (tokens.css); named palettes stay a plugin, not a fork of the stylesheet.

Editor

• Source-mode GFM. Toggle a task by clicking the box. Cycle heading,
  list, quote, and GitHub alert on the current line. Wrap and unwrap
  wikilinks, embeds, images, links, code, tags, math, and strikethrough.
• Jump. Next/previous heading, task, wikilink, dangling wikilink, link,
  image, embed, fence, table, alert, quote, list, horizontal rule, tag,
  math, and footnote. F12 still jumps between [^id] and its definition.
• Insert. Footnote, CSV/TSV fence, journal stamp. Copy the note as
  markdown or as [[title]].

Notes

• Daily. Open today, yesterday, or tomorrow. Creates the note only if
  it is missing.
• Find in the library. Unlinked, orphan, hub, spoke, untagged,
  most-tagged, stub, longest, stale, newest, random, duplicate title.
  Templates and the current note stay out of those lists.

Integrations

• GitHub. Paste a blob URL and the URL stays in the note if you still
  need to Connect. Import and watch submit on Enter. Toasts on connect,
  import, watch, and pull. Last-pulled is relative.
• 1Password. Save passphrase or a provider key and the toast names the
  vault.
• MCP / Local HTTP. Starting, timeout, and copy-failed states say what
  to do. The URL stays hidden until the server is up.

Graph

• No matches. A graph filter that hits nothing says so and leaves the
  search up so you can change it.

v0.19.1

You can launch Dripnex and write locally without signing in. Named palettes
no longer ship inside the desktop — Settings → Themes shows Default plus
whatever theme packs you have installed. This is not a public marketplace.

App

• No AuthGate on launch. A missing account no longer fills the window
  with “Email me a link.” Cold start opens Welcome or your local workspace.
  Magic link stays on Enable Sync and Settings → Account.
• File → Settings works on Linux and Windows without a session, so
  Plugins → Browse is reachable before you create an account.

Themes

• Named palettes are satellite packs. Parchment, Wave, Night, Harbor Dusk
  and the rest are not bundled. Pick Default, or install dripnex/theme-<slug>
  from Settings → Plugins → Browse / Other package.
• Saved dripnex-* ids from older builds fall back to Default instead of a
  blank UI.

Plugins

• Browse does not cache a partial GitHub scan. A mid-scan 403/429 no
  longer stores a short pack list. The last complete discovery is kept, and
  the seed catalog still lists first-party packed themes if GitHub is down.

v0.19.0

Settings → Plugins → Browse lists first-party Dripnex theme and plugin packs
when their latest GitHub Release includes a packed .tar.gz. You no longer
have to type those specs by hand. This is not a public community marketplace.

Plugins

• Browse auto-lists first-party packs. GET /plugins discovers public
  dripnex/theme-* and dripnex/plugin-* repos whose latest GitHub Release
  has a packed {id}-{version}.tar.gz. A git tag without that asset is
  skipped. Random org repos are not listed.
• Fallback seed. If the API is unreachable, Browse still shows parchment
  and the packed satellite themes in the desktop catalog.
• Already on 0.18.0. Install the same packs today from Other package:
  dripnex/theme-<slug>. 0.19.0 is Browse listing them.

Official palettes on Settings → Themes are unchanged. Satellite themes stay
packs, not core.

v0.18.0

A coastal evening palette for long writing sessions. Harbor Dusk joins
the official themes already in the desktop — same Settings → Themes
list, same token contract as Parchment, Wave, Night, and Fog. No new
fonts, no plugin pack.

Themes

• Harbor Dusk. Official dark palette. Deep slate water, mist text,
  muted teal on chrome, amber lanterns on editor links. Evening sibling
  to Fog (coastal gray morning). Pick it on Settings → Themes.
