Dashboard
Greeting, today's numbers, a 14-day run sparkline, the live activity feed, and the right-hand column: Today (running experiments, checkable due todos, continue-where-you-left-off), Momentum (logbook streak + activity heatmap), your Compass goals, and an optional AI digest.
Overview
The cross-workspace view: per-workspace counts and sync status, a "needs attention" radar (overdue todos, failed runs, stale figures, unsynced changes), global search, and a merged activity feed.
Runs & Analysis
The run board groups running experiments, flow chains and everything else; tiles show status, metrics and age. A run's detail page has live logs, metric charts (including streamed history), artifacts with inline previews, linked elements, re-run with edited parameters, and diffs against any other run. Analysis adds leaderboards with a baseline anchor, parameter sweeps, scatter/time charts, and one-click export of any chart as a provenance-tracked figure.
Logbook & Notes
The logbook is a color-coded timeline of typed entries merged with
automatic events (runs finishing, artifacts appearing). Templates per
kind, day headers, weekly stats, project filters — and sealing for
tamper-evident records. Notes are wiki-linked ([[Title]]),
back-linked, templated, and connect to runs, references and todos.
Todos & Agenda
Planning buckets (Overdue / Today / This week / Later), subtasks, recurring items, natural-language quick add, drag reordering inside lists, and "schedule on agenda". The Agenda merges every workspace, color-coded, with month and week views, recurring events, reminders, deadline flags from due todos, and ICS import/export.
Graph & Project
The graph shows your workspace as connected knowledge — runs, notes, references, todos, with wiki and provenance edges; filter, search, or focus two hops around any node. Project is the compass: goals, hypotheses with attached evidence (runs and notes, supporting or contradicting), and a decision journal.
Library & Desk
BibTeX-native references: add by DOI/arXiv id, import BibTeX, PDFs or a Zotero library; shelves (to read / reading / done), ratings and export. The Desk reads PDFs in-app with multi-document tabs, highlights that sync as annotations, quote-to-note with page references, and a persistent reading note per paper.
Paper
Markdown with live preview, outline navigation, snapshots with diffs, citation autocomplete from your library, figure insertion from run artifacts with hash-based staleness checking, and PDF/DOCX export.
Lab
Encrypted shared spaces for teams: member roster with roles, join requests, E2EE chat and share requests, and one-click fulfill — publish an element from any of your private workspaces into the lab. Governance (audit log, roles) for owners and admins.
Settings
Daemon connection, account & devices (create/login, recovery, passphrase change, device revocation, deletion), notifications, behavior defaults (start screen, agenda scope, week start), AI configuration with per-category privacy locks, sync per workspace, data management (sizes, export-all, unregister), and the tour replays.
