pinboard

You can capture research notes by appending items to a persistent PINBOARD.md file with automatic timestamps. This non-blocking approach saves reminders silently and acknowledges briefly without requesting confirmation, ensuring frictionless logging during active research sessions.

Yes, project notes are auto-categorized into four sections: To-Do, Papers, Ideas, or Data Issues. The system analyzes note content to classify entries automatically, enabling organized tracking of papers to read, hypotheses, and data quality issues.

The best way to track stale tasks is to review the pinboard grouped by category, which automatically flags items older than 7 days as potentially stale. This hygiene feature supports marking items done and clearing outdated project notes.

You can safely clear completed items from the pinboard using confirmation-gated destructive actions. This mechanism requires explicit confirmation before removing any entries, preventing accidental data loss during research workflow maintenance.

No, the pinboard note system requires zero external dependencies or components to function. It operates independently by reading and appending to PINBOARD.md directly in your project root, ensuring frictionless task capture without environment setup.
