Changelog
Release notes will appear here as new versions ship.
v0.6.0 — word & term definitions (July 11, 2026)
Atlas 0.6.0 adds word and term definitions to the note editor. Wrap a word or phrase in ::double colons:: — or use the new toolbar button — and Atlas fetches its definition automatically: the free dictionary API first, your configured AI model as a fallback for phrases or words the dictionary doesn’t know. The term renders in blue with an underline; hover it to see the definition in a small card.
The note side panel also gains a fourth tab, Glossary, listing every term defined in the current note for quick reference.

v0.5.2 — the polish release (July 10, 2026)
Atlas 0.5.2 is a polish-and-fixes release. The app now remembers where you left off — the notes folder tree, side panel, scroll position, and calendar view all persist across navigation and restarts — and the note editor picks up undo/redo, optional line numbers, drag-to-move for notes and folders, and spellcheck autocorrect with right-click suggestions.
Alongside that: Home’s daily progress pill no longer shrinks as you complete tasks, Apple Calendar sync correctly triggers macOS’s permission prompt, ingesting a duplicate filename now asks before overwriting, Subjects’ “Fetch from URL” can read JavaScript-rendered course pages, and ⌘K can create a new task instead of only editing existing ones — plus graph-view, grades, and calendar-recenter fixes.
Also in this release
- Create and link a task directly from a calendar event.
- Ingest supports drag-and-drop, and watched folders route into the review queue and scan subfolders.
- New-from-template lets you pick a destination folder and creates
_templates automatically.
- The Cards (flashcards) button, Rec (recording) tab, and calendar Tasks band are removed — reserved for a later release, not lost.

v0.5.25 — the symbol picker (July 10, 2026)
Atlas 0.5.25 adds two small editor upgrades. The note toolbar’s new Σ button opens a searchable picker of 127 math and logic symbols — connectives, quantifiers, set theory, number sets, calculus, Greek letters, and more — across nine categories; each tile shows the symbol next to its LaTeX command, so picking one teaches you how to type it next time. A new Underline button now sits next to Bold, Italic, and Strikethrough.

v0.5.1 — the disk manager release (July 8, 2026)
Atlas installs its first plugin from the new marketplace: Disk Manager. Visualize what’s using space across Local and iCloud in a clickable treemap, then reclaim it with a fast keep/delete/evict swipe — duplicates pre-flagged, biggest wins first. Connect a local model via LM Studio for AI-assisted reorganization: it proposes a plan, you approve it, nothing moves without your OK. A running tally and per-action undo log track everything a session frees up. Install it from Plugins ▸ Browse — no restart required. Atlas also now checks for new releases from Settings ▸ About, and the dark-mode note editor’s fold gutter is fixed.
v0.5.0 — the plugins release (July 6, 2026)
Atlas opens up with a new Plugins view and its first plugin: the Claude Connector. Connect
Claude Desktop to your real Atlas data — tasks, deadlines, schedule, notes, and grades — fully
on-device, with no account and nothing leaving your Mac. Nine read tools are on by default and
individually toggleable; two opt-in write tools (create and complete tasks) stay off until you
enable them, always fire a notification, and log to a reviewable activity history. One click
configures Claude Desktop for you, with a manual-copy fallback if you’d rather do it yourself.
Browse, install, and manage add-ons from the new Plugins tab — the Claude Connector ships
pre-installed as its first entry.
v0.4.0 — the redesign (July 4, 2026)
A full visual and structural redesign of Atlas — every existing feature re-skinned to a new
design system, plus several net-new surfaces. Home is now Today Focus: your daily note,
due-today tasks, and schedule, without the old widget grid. Notes gets a toolbar-first editor
with three modes (Rendered/Source/Browse) and new math and code-block tools. Archive,
Settings, and Feedback are now full views instead of panels and modals, Calendar adds
a day-timeline and per-event note/task linking, and Subjects gets course code/faculty fields
and a tabbed detail page. Flashcards, Ask your vault, and Pomodoro/focus tracking leave the core
in this release — they’re coming back as the first plugins in the upcoming marketplace.
v0.3.0 — the study release (June 29, 2026)
The biggest release yet for serious note-taking. Lecture recording captures audio against a
note, syncs timestamps to your text, and transcribes it on-device. Flashcards turn Q::/A::
lines into a spaced-repetition deck — or let Atlas draft cards for you. Ask your vault answers
questions from your own notes, with citations, entirely locally. Plus full-text search,
version history, note export & print, inline images, per-subject grades, an
outline pane, and natural-language quick-add. Your vault is now iCloud-safe (atomic writes
- external-change reload), and a new What’s new panel greets you after each update.
v0.2.0 — the notes release (June 10, 2026)
An all-new notes editor headlines this release: three modes — Source, Live, and
Reading — with a live preview that hides markup as you write, plus math
rendering (KaTeX), syntax-highlighted code blocks, and proper tables, all fully offline.
Beyond notes: tasks can now skip the deadline entirely; calendar events can link to a
subject (inheriting its colour), repeat on a schedule, and be logged in the past; hovering
any task or event shows a quick info card; the Archive opens as a side panel so your
dashboard stays visible; and the Graph now always reflects your real vault. Subjects can
carry a course link and description, and a new in-app Send feedback button (with an
optional diagnostics log) goes straight to the developer. Signed and notarized for Apple
Silicon Macs.
v0.1.0 — initial release (June 9, 2026)
First public build of Atlas: the Home dashboard (weekly view, Pomodoro timer, tasks and
metrics), Notes with backlinks, Calendar with two-way Apple Calendar sync and ICS
subscriptions, file Ingest (PDF/docx/images/audio → markdown, on-device OCR and
transcription), the link Graph, deadline reminders and a ⌘K command palette. Signed and
notarized for Apple Silicon Macs.
