AI overlay
Press Cmd/Ctrl+H (or Edit → Show AI) to summon the AI overlay on any note: translate, rewrite, ask questions — or type / to start commands and interactive sessions.
Context toggles
Above the input, three toggles control what the AI sees:
- Include current note — the note content is sent as context.
- Include selected text — the current editor selection is the focus of the request. The selection stays highlighted in the editor while the overlay is open.
- Enable web search — the AI can fetch and search the web.
You can also mention other notes and files inline with @ (@folder/Note, @file:///path/to/file).
Where answers land
- With a selection: the answer streams on a fresh line below the selection.
- Without a selection: the answer streams at the end of the note.
Each note keeps its own prompt history (stored in the vault, self-pruning) — press ↑ in the input to recall previous prompts.
Providers & models
Configure your LLM in Settings → AI: OpenAI, Ollama (local), OpenRouter, or any OpenAI-compatible server.
The newest OpenAI reasoning models (gpt-5*, o1/o3/o4*) are supported out of the box — Znote automatically adapts the sampling parameters those models reject.
