$mdflow changelog

Everything we've shipped.

MDflow is built in the open. Every release, newest first — from the first browser-based markdown editor to public and private sharing, client-side encryption, a full HTTP API, MCP servers for AI agents, and the Web Clipper.

  1. v0.8.0

    latest

    Public Beta polish

    Editor refinements and a brand-new marketing site as MDflow enters public beta.

    // added

    • Editor help panel gains table alignment, footnote, and math examples
    • Duplicate the current line with Cmd/Ctrl+D

  2. v0.7.1

    Clipper, leveled up

    The Web Clipper learns to highlight, template, and extract with AI.

    // added

    • Web page highlighter — highlight text, elements, or whole pages; highlights persist across visits
    • Templates with URL and schema.org triggers, conditionals, loops, and inline validation
    • Typed frontmatter properties, pre-populated from page variables
    • AI interpreter with natural-language prompt variables — bring your own provider and key (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, and more)
    • Clip history and usage statistics by day, week, or month

    // improved

    • Import and export for templates, properties, and all extension settings; many interface locales
  3. v0.7.0

    The Web Clipper

    Save any web page straight into your workspace as clean, durable markdown.

    // added

    • MDflow Web Clipper for Chrome and Chromium, Firefox, and Safari
    • Capture the full article, a text selection, or saved highlights — navigation and ads stripped
    • Clip from a toolbar popup, dockable side panel, in-page clipper, right-click menu, or keyboard shortcut
    • Save to MDflow, copy markdown to the clipboard, or save as a local file
    • Connect with a Personal Access Token and a configurable server URL
  4. v0.6.1

    Agents & private sharing

    Open the workspace to AI agents, and share privately with named people.

    // added

    • Hosted remote MCP server at /api/mcp, plus a downloadable local stdio server
    • Works with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, and the OpenAI Responses API
    • Agent discovery files: llms.txt, docs.md, pricing.md, and /.well-known/agent-card.json
    • Raw markdown for any share — append .md to the URL for YAML-frontmatter output
    • Private sharing by email for documents and collections, with view or view-and-comment access (Pro)
  5. v0.6.0

    Programmable & Pro

    A full HTTP API, access tokens, and the Pro plan arrive.

    // added

    • Pro plan with a 7-day free trial, secure checkout, and a billing portal
    • Personal Access Tokens, created in settings and stored only as hashes
    • Versioned JSON HTTP API under /api/v1 with full document and folder CRUD, plus sharing management
    • OpenAPI 3.1 specification at /openapi.json and human-readable docs at /docs/api

    // improved

    • Rate limiting at 30 requests/min per token; API responses are non-cacheable
  6. v0.5.1

    Lock it down

    End-to-end document encryption that never leaves your browser.

    // added

    • Client-side AES-256-GCM encryption with a key derived from your password
    • Unlock to read and edit, re-lock on demand, or remove encryption to return to plain markdown
    • Shared encrypted documents show a password gate to readers

    // improved

    • Encrypted documents are excluded from search; the server only ever stores ciphertext
  7. v0.5.0

    Collaborate

    Collections to curate, and comments to discuss.

    // added

    • Collections — group documents independently of folders and share them as a set
    • Public collection links with a clean reader and optional commenting
    • Passage comments on shared documents, with a side panel on desktop and a drawer on mobile
    • Owners read and moderate comments from the normal editor

    // improved

    • Comments survive sharing toggles; the panel refreshes live while people discuss
  8. v0.4.1

    Sign in your way

    More ways in, and your own copy of anything shared.

    // added

    • Sign in with Apple, GitHub, and Microsoft, alongside Google
    • Clone a shared document into your workspace as an independent copy, with its images
    • Choose a destination folder when cloning; filenames are auto-disambiguated

    // improved

    • Resume your Comment or Clone action automatically after signing in
    • Friendly unavailable page for disabled or invalid links
  9. v0.4.0

    Share with the world

    Publish a polished, read-only page anyone can open — no account required.

    // added

    • Public read-only share links with long, random, unguessable slugs
    • Per-document sharing toggle; disabling a link invalidates it permanently
    • Clean reader view: rendered preview, read-only source, and side-by-side split
    • Download the original .md or export a print-ready PDF from the reader

    // improved

    • Owner identity and email stay hidden on shared pages
  10. v0.3.1

    Find & import

    Search everything you've written, and bring in what you already have.

    // added

    • Full-text workspace search across titles and body, with highlighted snippets
    • Markdown import — drag in .md and .markdown files, one or many at a time

    // improved

    • Title matches ranked first; every result shows its containing folder
    • Encrypted documents are excluded from search results
  11. v0.3.0

    Images

    Drop images straight into your markdown.

    // added

    • Drag-and-drop or paste images right in the editor — the markdown syntax is inserted for you
    • JPEG, PNG, and WebP up to 20 MB, resized to 1024 px in the browser
    • Print-ready PDF export for any document

    // improved

    • Uploads stay private until referenced by a public document
    • Unused images are cleaned up on removal, deletion, and duplication
  12. v0.2.1

    Resilient & responsive

    Keep writing offline, on any screen.

    // added

    • Local draft recovery — unsaved edits survive reloads and navigation
    • Offline banner with automatic save-retry when you reconnect
    • Responsive layout for tablet and mobile with a collapsible drawer

    // improved

    • Stale drafts are discarded when the server copy changes, preventing overwrites

  13. v0.2.0

    A real workspace

    Folders, favorites, and everything you need to organize.

    // added

    • Folders with optional descriptions; create, rename, delete, and collapse
    • Move and duplicate documents — duplicates copy their referenced images
    • Favorite documents for a dedicated sidebar section
    • Download any document as a .md file

    // improved
