What's new in v1.0.0
**Metis 1.0.0 - first release.** A native, local-first Markdown knowledge base for macOS.
- Live-preview editor with a bidirectional [[link]] graph, backlinks, aliases, and unlinked mentions.
- Folder-tree organization, typed front-matter properties, a vault-wide task agenda, and semantic + keyword search.
- Private, on-device AI (summarize, writing assist, Ask Vault) - requires macOS 26 + Apple Intelligence; the app is fully usable without it.
- Optional git-backed version history (snapshots, diffs, restore).
