#72There are also a lot of mcp agents for Joplin: https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/ai-agents-and-joplin/46168 Dare I say, another, more popular, note taking app for you and your agents. I really like it as I run a webdav service and can read/write and sync notes between multiple Mac desktops and Android. Encrypted while I am at it. Markdown native.
But does joblin support anything more than markdown? I'm thinking of using it as a like a store for agent plans, so I can easily edit stuff.
Can an agent add rendered HTML, meramaid etc in joblin?

#73as a lightweight markdown reader on macOS, I much prefer the native mdv* app than running a nodejs app.

#75so, Obsidian?
There's even a community plugin MCP that makes this easier. Afaik the hot reload is the only thing that "beats" this but I haven't had issues with Agents interacting with obsidian through the MCP - I'm not sure how much more useful it is to talk with an agent through a note taking app vs through its CLI.
Obsidian does hot reloading too. Usually, I have vscode/Claude Cowork up on one side and on the other is Obsidian. I made a plugin[1] that converts emails to `.md` so they can also be in Obsidian folder -- so Claude can query those emails the same way it does my notes. Works beautifully.

#76Genuinely curious, maybe I'm missing something. What makes this more "agent-ready" than Obsidian .md files on disk or even something like .org files? I can let my agent edit those files all the same + there's better integrations and knowledge readily available on these. I can tell my agent to edit the Obsidian Markdown just like that, but I can also tell it to create a full-on notebook with backlinks and DataView que…

#78Earlier quoted context omitted.
Also why is it a nodejs app? With the explosion of LLM and the insane increase in productivity shouldn't it be a Rust app?
Why even limit the app to Rust? Cross compilation is for humans. Just have the LLM make multiple versions of the codebase using whatever language and SDK is best integrated into each OS.
Why limit to language and SDK? Have the LLM write machine code.

#79Uhh yeah I don't let agents edit files that I'm writing - that's how you get psychosis. I enforce this via snapshots before and after tool calls

It can be the language they prefer. Why would someone spend money to create software in some language for the sake of having an LLM generate it
The counter argument is that since LLM resembles magic why use inefficient nodejs that is basically an app running inside chrone Why not use native binaries? Is efficiency not important in 2026?
repeating the statement doesn’t make a counter point
