A local-only studio for a personal wiki — edit, graph, curate, and capture into it

Grimoire is a wiki studio that runs entirely on your own machine against a folder of Markdown. The Library view is a CodeMirror editor with wikilink autocomplete and live backlinks. Three graph views — Brain, Connections, and Atlas — show the shape of what you have written. A Curator surfaces eight kinds of recommendation and runs the schema validator in place. The Capture view pulls things in: drag and drop, PDF text extraction, and a URL clipper that strips a page to its readable article. Nothing leaves the machine.

Built and running, but not packaged for release — so there is nothing honest to link to yet. It ships when it ships.
