HTML support felt bolted on. Terminal plugins were slow and brittle. Continuously indexing a changing note library was surprisingly difficult.

Eventually I realized the issue wasn’t missing plugins. The assumptions were different.

Obsidian was designed around humans manually writing, organizing, and reading notes.

I had already gotten used to harnessing Claude Code. There was no going back.

Recently a friend shared this project exploring the same direction: [StashBase](https://github.com/liliu-z/stashbase)

It feels closer to VS Code than a traditional note app.
