bvandeusen 22a3a3c1d1 Initial commit: note-taking/task-tracking app with LLM integration scaffold
Vue 3 + TypeScript frontend with Pinia stores, markdown rendering (marked + DOMPurify),
wikilink/tag linkification, and autocomplete. Quart async backend with SQLAlchemy 2.0,
PostgreSQL ARRAY columns, task-note companion linking, backlinks, and note-to-task
conversion. Docker Compose setup with PostgreSQL 16 and Ollama.

# Fabled Assistant - Project Context
> **Purpose:** This file is the canonical reference for re-initializing Claude Code
> context on this project. It should be updated after every significant change.
## Last Updated
2026-02-08 — Phase 3 complete (Tasks CRUD + Wikilinks)
## Project Overview
Fabled Assistant is a self-hosted note-taking and task-tracking application with
integrated LLM capabilities. It is designed to run on container infrastructure
(Docker Swarm) and connect to Ollama or any self-hostable LLM-compatible system
for AI-assisted features.
## Core Architecture
### Stack
| Layer | Technology | Notes |
|-------------|-----------|-------|
| Frontend | Vue 3 + TypeScript + Vite + Pinia + Vue Router | SPA served from the same container as the API |
| Backend/API | Quart (Python 3.12) | Async framework; serves both API and built frontend static files |
| LLM | Ollama | Or any OpenAI-compatible self-hosted LLM API |
| Database | PostgreSQL 16 | asyncpg driver, SQLAlchemy 2.0 async ORM, Alembic migrations |
| Deployment | Docker Compose | Single-container app + separate DB + LLM service |
### Key Design Decisions
- **Single container for frontend + API:** Quart serves the Vue.js production
build as static files and exposes the REST API under `/api/`.
- **Quart chosen for familiarity:** The maintainer (bvandeusen) knows Quart well.
- **LLM integration is a separate service:** The app communicates with Ollama (or
compatible) over HTTP.
- **Inline tag extraction:** Tags are extracted from note/task body text using
`#tag` syntax (Obsidian-style), not manually entered. Backend is source of truth
for tag extraction.
- **Hierarchical tags:** `#project/webapp` stored as `"project/webapp"`. Filtering
by `project` matches both `project` and `project/*` children via SQL `unnest` +
`LIKE` prefix.
- **Dark-first theming:** CSS custom properties on `:root` (light) and
`[data-theme="dark"]`, with `prefers-color-scheme` detection defaulting to dark.
- **Task-Note linking:** Tasks have an optional `note_id` FK (one task → one note).
Notes display their linked tasks in a "Linked Tasks" section.
- **Wikilinks:** Obsidian-style `[[Title]]` and `[[Title|Display Text]]` in markdown
bodies resolve to notes by exact title match via `/api/notes/by-title`.

## Data Model
### Notes (implemented)
- `id` (int PK), `title` (str), `body` (markdown str), `tags` (ARRAY[str]),
`parent_id` (nullable FK to self), `created_at`, `updated_at`
- Tags are auto-extracted from body text on create/update via `#tag` regex
- Supports hierarchical organization via `parent_id`
- Lookup by exact title via `get_note_by_title()` for wikilink resolution
### Tasks (implemented)
- `id` (int PK), `title` (str), `description` (markdown str),
`status` (enum: todo/in_progress/done), `priority` (enum: none/low/medium/high),
`due_date` (date, nullable), `note_id` (FK to notes, nullable, SET NULL),
`tags` (ARRAY[str]), `created_at`, `updated_at`
- Tags auto-extracted from description on create/update
- Status enum with quick-toggle cycling: todo → in_progress → done → todo
- Indexes: GIN on tags, B-tree on note_id, B-tree on status
### LLM Interactions (Phase 4)
- Summarize notes, generate task breakdowns, search/query across notes,
chat-style assistant within the app

## Phased Roadmap
### Phase 1 — Skeleton & Dev Environment ✓
- [x] Initialize Python project (pyproject.toml, Quart app scaffold)
- [x] Initialize Vue.js project (Vite-based, inside `frontend/`)
- [x] Set up Dockerfile (multi-stage: build Vue, serve with Quart)
- [x] Docker Compose stack with Ollama service
- [x] Quart serves Vue static build + `/api/health` endpoint
- [x] Database setup (PostgreSQL 16, asyncpg, SQLAlchemy 2.0, Alembic)
### Phase 2 — Notes CRUD + UX ✓
- [x] Database model for notes (title, body, tags[], parent_id, timestamps)
- [x] REST API: create, read, update, delete, list notes with pagination
- [x] Vue views: note list, note editor (markdown), note viewer (rendered)
- [x] Search (ILIKE on title/body) and tag filtering (hierarchical via unnest)
- [x] Inline `#tag` extraction from body text (backend regex, skips code fences)
- [x] Hierarchical tag filtering (`#project` matches `project` and `project/*`)
- [x] Dark/light theming with CSS custom properties + toggle + localStorage
- [x] App header with navigation and theme toggle
- [x] Tag pills (clickable + dismissible) on cards, viewer, and list filter bar
- [x] Pagination bar with prev/next and page numbers
- [x] Sort controls (field + asc/desc)
- [x] Toast notifications (success/error, 3s auto-dismiss)
- [x] Ctrl+S save shortcut in editor
- [x] Unsaved changes guard (route leave + beforeunload)
- [x] DOMPurify sanitization on rendered markdown
- [x] Inline tag linkification in rendered markdown (clickable `#tag` links)
### Phase 3 — Tasks CRUD + Wikilinks ✓
- [x] Task model with status (todo/in_progress/done) and priority (none/low/medium/high) enums
- [x] Alembic migration for tasks table with PG enums and indexes
- [x] REST API: full CRUD + PATCH status toggle + filter by status/priority/note_id/tags
- [x] Task-Note linking via optional `note_id` FK
- [x] Vue views: task list (search, status/priority filters, sort, pagination), editor (note-link autocomplete, Ctrl+S, dirty guard), viewer (rendered markdown)
- [x] StatusBadge (clickable, cycles status), PriorityBadge, TaskCard components
- [x] Obsidian-style wikilinks: `[[Title]]` and `[[Title|Display]]` in rendered markdown
- [x] Wikilink click handling resolves notes by title via `/api/notes/by-title`
- [x] "Linked Tasks" section on NoteViewerView with inline status toggling
- [x] Theme variables for status/priority/wikilink/overdue colors (light + dark)
### Phase 4 — LLM Integration (next)
- [ ] Ollama client in the backend (async HTTP via httpx/aiohttp)
- [ ] API endpoints for LLM features (summarize note, generate tasks from note,
freeform chat)
- [ ] Vue components for LLM interactions (chat panel, summarize button, etc.)
- [ ] Configurable LLM endpoint + model selection in app settings
### Phase 5 — Polish & Production Hardening
- [ ] Authentication (single-user or multi-user, TBD)
- [ ] Docker Swarm production stack (secrets, volumes, networking)
- [ ] Backup/restore strategy for data
- [ ] UI/UX refinements, responsive design
- [ ] Error handling, logging, monitoring
### Future / Stretch
- WebSocket streaming for LLM responses
- Tagging/labeling system with LLM-suggested tags
- Calendar/timeline view for tasks
- Import/export (Markdown files, JSON)
- Plugin/extension system
## Development Workflow
- All development and testing done via Docker: `docker compose up --build`
- No local dependency installation — everything containerized
- Frontend dev: Vite dev server with proxy to Quart (via Docker)
- Production build: Dockerfile multi-stage — Vite builds Vue into static files,
Quart serves them
## Open Questions
- Authentication model: single-user (password-only) vs multi-user?
- Should LLM streaming use WebSockets from Phase 4 or defer to Phase 5?
## Current Status
**Phase:** Phase 3 complete. Tasks CRUD with wikilinks fully implemented.
- Full notes CRUD with markdown editing, rendering, and wikilinks
- Full tasks CRUD with status/priority enums, filters, note linking
- Inline `#tag` extraction for both notes and tasks
- Obsidian-style `[[wikilinks]]` with title resolution
- StatusBadge with clickable cycling, PriorityBadge, overdue date styling
- "Linked Tasks" section on note viewer with inline status toggling
- Dark/light theme with status/priority/wikilink color variables
- Ready for Phase 4: LLM Integration
