What's new in v0.2.5

🤖 Right-click AI Lookup

Select any text in a Markdown article and right-click → send it to ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google, or Wikipedia with one click. Each provider can hold any number of saved prompt templates ("Explain this clearly:", "Summarize:", whatever you write) — define once, reuse forever. There's also a Custom prompt option for ad-hoc one-off use.

URL-based integration only — no API keys, no MDHero-side telemetry. The selection opens in your default browser; MDHero never sees what you sent or what came back.

  • Provider and prompt management lives in a new "AI Lookup" section of the Settings dialog (gear icon / Cmd+,)
  • Ships with sensible defaults: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google Search, Wikipedia
  • Custom prompt works even with nothing selected (just type your prompt)
  • Originally requested by @ixuzhe in Discussion #3
  • Implemented in #13

📖 Save and restore reading progress per file

Long Markdown files now remember where you stopped. Close a file, come back days later, and MDHero smooth-scrolls to your last position. Anchored on Markdown source lines (not raw scroll position), so it survives font size, window width, and content reflow changes between sessions.

  • Silent — no toast, no indicator (the smooth-scroll animation is the feedback)
  • Skips short files that fit in viewport entirely
  • Survives external file edits (saved line falls back to closest available)
  • Originally requested by @ixuzhe in Discussion #6
  • Implemented by @pushkarchoudhari in #10

🙏 Thanks to this release's contributors

Huge thanks to @ixuzhe — both of this release's headline features came directly from his thoughtful feature requests in MDHero's Discussions. And to @pushkarchoudhari for shipping the reading-progress implementation, his second contribution to MDHero.
