Knowledge Plugin for LM Studio

A personal knowledge architect that runs entirely locally. Ingest notes and articles, build a concept graph across sessions, and synthesize what you've captured into coherent understanding.

Not a note-taking app. Not RAG. A knowledge architect that forces you to organize what you learn and tells you what you still don't know.

What It Does

• Ingests text and URLs — save notes directly or fetch any URL and extract its text
• Builds a concept graph — link notes to named concepts (themes, frameworks, people, topics)
• Full-text search — find notes by keyword across title, content, source, and tags
• Synthesizes on demand — loads all notes on a concept and prompts the LLM to surface themes, contradictions, and gaps
• Weekly review — surfaces recent additions, orphan notes, empty concepts, and what to organize next

How the Knowledge Graph Works

Notes are raw material — text from any source. Each note has a title, content, source, and tags.

Concepts are the organizing nodes — named themes, frameworks, people, or questions you return to. A concept grows as you link more notes to it.

Synthesis is the output — when you ask "what do I know about X?", the plugin loads all notes linked to that concept and produces a structured synthesis: core thesis, recurring themes, contradictions, gaps.

Example Sessions

Saving an idea:

"Save this: the key insight from Thinking Fast and Slow is that System 2 is lazy — it defaults to System 1 whenever possible"

ingest_note(title="System 2 laziness — Kahneman", content="...", source="Thinking Fast and Slow", tags=["cognition", "decision-making"])

Ingesting an article:

"Ingest this article: https://example.com/article"

ingest_url(url="...", tags=["AI", "research"]) → saves page text as a note

Organizing notes:

"I have 5 notes on cognitive biases. Create a concept and link them."

upsert_concept(name="Cognitive Biases", description="Systematic errors in human judgment") → link_note_to_concept × 5

Synthesizing:

"What do I know about cognitive biases?"

get_concept(name="Cognitive Biases") → generate_synthesis(conceptName="Cognitive Biases", focusQuestion="What patterns emerge across these notes?") → structured synthesis

Weekly review:

"What's been added this week?"

knowledge_review(daysSince=7) → shows recent notes, orphans, and what to link or synthesize
