What's new in Wikai, release by release.

0.1.5

Cite a sentence, not a page

You can now point at a single block — a paragraph, a heading, a list item — instead of a whole page, and the reference survives editing.

  • Block references. Every block gets a durable, invisible id. Link to it with page.md#^a4a45a and Wikai scrolls to that block and flashes it. Reword, reorder, split or merge the block later and the link still resolves. How it works.
  • Block embeds. Use image syntax — ![](page.md#^a4a45a) — and the block’s content renders inline where you put it, attributed back to the page it came from.
  • Book chapters are Markdown. Ingested EPUB chapters are no longer verbatim HTML, so every paragraph in a book is now a citable target like any other block. Existing chapters were migrated in place; old intra-chapter links keep working.
  • Block-level agent edits. The MCP endpoint gained tools to read, update, insert and delete a single block, so an agent can revise one paragraph without rewriting the page — and without breaking anything that cites it.
  • A missing block id lint with a one-click fix, for blocks nothing can cite yet.

The editor got a working-over, too:

  • The toolbar and the Done row stay pinned while you scroll.
  • The title is a single editable heading — no more duplicate title card.
  • Paste as Markdown: pasted **bold**, links and tables become real formatting instead of literal characters.
  • A page info panel — metadata and connections — available in both read and edit mode, on one toggle.

Fixes: checkboxes stick reliably (on pages, daily notes, and in Follow-ups) instead of flickering back; short runs of loose checkboxes group under their section instead of scattering into separate follow-ups; editing a page no longer pins it as a tab; links and pasted tables are legible in dark mode, and the editor follows the app’s light/dark setting rather than the system one.

Windows installers are now signed with Azure Trusted Signing. SmartScreen may still prompt until the new certificate builds reputation — you can check the signature yourself under Properties → Digital Signatures. See verifying your download.

Known limitation: LaTeX math can still be mangled by repeated edit cycles on a page. It’s on the list.

0.1.4

First public release

Wikai is available for macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows, and Linux. Download it.

What’s in the first release:

  • Ingest EPUB, PDF, DOCX, web links, and Markdown.
  • Agent-maintained pages with cross-references, kept current as you add sources.
  • Quick capture & daily notes — jot things down; the agent files them.
  • Hybrid concept search and lint across your wiki.
  • Chat sidebar grounded in your pages (bring your own Claude Code or Anthropic key).
  • MCP endpoint for external agents.
  • Local-first — everything is Markdown on your disk.

Installers are signed; updates are signature-checked and arrive automatically. On Windows, SmartScreen may warn until code-signing is fully in place — choose More info → Run anyway.
