Interesting take! It does seem to address a typical "intermediate" workflow; even though we prefer linear finished products, we often work by completing a hierarchy first. I've been using Gingko [1] for years, I find it eases the struggle of organizing the structure of a problem by both allowing endless expansion of levels, and easily collapsing it into a linear structure.
In your case, do you hold N contexts (N being the number of leaves in the tree)? Are the chats disconnected from each other? How do you propose to transition from an endless/unstructured canvas to some sort of a finished, organized deliverable?

- setnone 2y agoGreat questions! > In your case, do you hold N contexts (N being the number of leaves in the tree)? It depends, contexts are just a form of grouping > Are the chats disconnected from each other? > How do you propose to transition from an endless/unstructured canvas to some sort of a finished, organized deliverable? RAG with in-app commands, i'm working on a local RAG solution, it's early but promising. Basically chat with all your data and applying a wide range of command on it.
- Ringz 2y agoSlightly OT, but there was a standalone software just like gingko for the Mac. Do you now something about it? Edit: I think it was an old version of gingko as a desktop app. Still available at https://github.com/gingko/client/releases https://github.com/gingko/client/releases
- floam 2y agoAre you thinking of FlowList? https://www.flowtoolz.com/flowlist/ https://www.flowtoolz.com/flowlist/
- Ringz 2y agoThanks, but that’s not the one. It was like a pure Markdown outliner, very keyboard driven.

- ludwigschubert 2y agoAre you thinking of Bike? https://www.hogbaysoftware.com/bike/ https://www.hogbaysoftware.com/bike/ (Maybe not — this isn’t markdown first; but it is a very macOS-y, keyboard driven, hierarchical outliner that I enjoy.)
- Ringz 2y agoBike looks very nice and it’s built on open file formats. I will try it out. Look at my edit above: it might be an old version of ginkgo. But I’m on my phone right now and can’t figure it out…
- TeMPOraL 2y ago> How do you propose to transition from an endless/unstructured canvas to some sort of a finished, organized deliverable? Why would they, though? For me as a potential user of this (and someone who thought about building a tool like this for myself), the tree (or better, a directed graph) is the desired end result.
