VoidStack

A temporary stack area to pile up fragments of thought and transport them to the AI refinery.

VoidStack - Local Knowledge Base Extension for Structuring Your Thoughts A next-generation local knowledge management extension that instantly captures and visually structures your web research and everyday thoughts while browsing. Build your personal "second brain" right in your browser's sidebar—complete with automatic organization via Chrome's built-in AI, seamless export to Obsidian, and integration with external tools like Tampermonkey and AI assistants. ■ 🚀 Quick Start: Instant Structuring with AI & External Tools Here is the simplest and most powerful way to use VoidStack alongside external tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or Tampermonkey user scripts: 1. Open your AI chat (or other tool) and click the "Markdown" button at the bottom of the VoidStack panel (this automatically inserts custom Markdown generation rules into the prompt input). 2. Send the prompt to the AI to output structured text organized according to the rules. 3. Copy the output, then import it into VoidStack via the context menu option "Add Clipboard to VoidStack" (or paste it directly). 4. Click the "[Graph]" button at the top of the panel to instantly visualize your imported ideas as a mind map or network graph! ■ ✨ Key Features 📝 Quick Capture & Feature-Rich Editor • Instantly create notes from selected web text with a single right-click, or directly via the dedicated side panel. • Drag and drop images or paste content directly from your clipboard. 🌌 Multi-Angle Graph Visualizations Seamlessly switch between 5 distinct view modes to overview and edit your accumulated notes based on your workflow: • 🕸️ Network: A dynamic node correlation graph powered by physics simulation to intuitively understand connections. • 🧠 Mindmap: Clear hierarchical mind mapping for organizing thoughts and structuring information. • 🧊 3D Space: A 3D view that places information spatially, offering fresh perspectives on your knowledge base. • 📋 Kanban: Board-style categorization based on tagged hashtags—perfect for task management and quick sorting. • ⏳ Timeline: Chronological view based on creation dates and sequence to track the evolution of your ideas over time. 🤖 On-Device AI Refinement (Chrome Built-in AI / Gemini Nano) • Automatic note summarization and smart hashtag suggestions. • Logical merging of multiple notes and automated suggestions for undiscovered connections. *All AI processing runs locally inside your browser—zero data is sent to external servers. 🔗 Powerful Integrations (Obsidian & Tampermonkey Support) • Smoothly import text gathered or generated via Tampermonkey user scripts and AI chat tools. • One-click transfer of individual notes to Obsidian via URI schemes (`obsidian://`). • Batch export your whole dataset to a local folder as Markdown files, keeping image attachments and internal links (`[[Wiki-style]]`) completely intact. ■ 🎯 Who Is This For? • Researchers, writers, and engineers looking to streamline web research and literature organization. • Power users who leverage ChatGPT, Tampermonkey scripts, and other tools to accelerate learning and thinking. • Fans of Zettelkasten-style note-taking apps like Obsidian. • Anyone who wants to visually map out and structure scattered thoughts and ideas. ■ 🔒 Security & Privacy (100% Local-First) VoidStack is designed with privacy as the top priority. Your notes and images are never sent to external servers. [Permissions Used & Their Purpose] • storage: To securely save your notes and settings locally in your browser. • clipboardRead / clipboardWrite: To allow pasting via clipboard and copying batch notes. • scripting / activeTab: To inject the panel on the active page only when triggered by user action (e.g., right-click context menu or clicking the extension icon). No background scripts run without explicit action. ■ ⚠️ Initial Setup for AI Features VoidStack's AI features (summarization, tag suggestions, link discovery, etc.) run on Chrome's built-in local AI model (Gemini Nano). To use these features, please complete the following setup first: 1. Type `chrome://flags` in your address bar and press Enter. 2. Set both "Prompt API for Extension" and "Enables optimization guide on device" to "Enabled", then restart your browser. *Even if you skip this setup, all non-AI features (note-taking, graph visualizers, Obsidian exports, etc.) will work without any restrictions. ```[cite: 1]
