Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is the issue you're seeing that it stripped comments, or something else?

It nuked a substantial portion of the file, unfortunately, not just the comments. It basically gave me a reset config.toml with your MCP and not too much else. I have a nontrivial config. Will share on your Issues page when I can.

Appreciate it. An anonymized repro file would help ensure we validate against your specific cases.

This is interesting and a promising start. I gave this a shot.

I'd love to see support for Bases and obsidian plugins that are typescript/open source anyway - I use a few such as excalidraw/mermaid etc.

I also want to use my local model.

When collaborating on Notion, we had to pop into Google docs for comments, suggestions and history. I see this as important even when working with AI on something.

I wish (in general, not a criticism of this project) there was some way for claude.ai to write to a version controlled KB, ie from chats in the mobile app

This is mostly a Claude problem

So far the closest thing to what I want is using Claude Code in the mobile app to work in some repo and tell it not to write code, just have a discussion, and then eventually ask it to write the md doc or whatever.

I can then add that GitHub repo to a claude.ai 'Project' files and chats within the project can see the contents, but can't write back to it unfortunately.

Thanks nitin, these are all top of queue. We'll follow on quickly.
