Oh wait, I think I misunderstood your question!

You can use ‘paper config’ to specify the working directory, then all the journals will be saved to that path.

The tldr is yes, but not sure about which part will be open source and which part will remain private, and when.

The API & web app components will definitely remain private, but the CLI tool itself can be open source.

If you run ‘paper config’ today, you will still see that you can configure the “sync url” - basically that allows you to sync your content to your own hosting provider.

I spent non-trivial thought on this topic during development, but then ended up with a conclusion that I should just make it private for now to speed up feature development. Otherwise I would need to think really hard on the interface & contract design.

Hey sankaran458, I am so glad to see this comment, and I hope this CLI tool can truly do its work to save people’s pain points. I hope this is not “yet another” useless tool that tries to simplify the workflow.

Give it a try and let me know your feedback if there’s any!

Hope you will enjoy it!

Oh wow, that's a very popular one! I did not know that before. I am gonna give it a try and compare these tools. Thanks for the info!

haha, you got it!

I published the CLI tool with the sourcemap enabled prev-v1.0.0

That's why you can see the source code.

Anyone else feel like Claude Code has gotten worse lately? It keeps going off on tangents I never asked about, and it won't stick to a simple rule I've given it repeatedly: stay concise, only expand when I ask. It just doesn't follow that.

Worse, about two weeks ago it recommended a command and assured me it was safe. I pushed back and asked it to double-check, and it confirmed again that it was safe. I trusted that and ran it — and it wiped out weeks of my data.

I don't have hard proof, but I can't shake the feeling that Anthropic is doing what Apple does: rolling out a new model while letting the old one degrade, whether on purpose or just as a side effect (like how iOS updates quietly eat more resources and slow down older phones). Lately I feel like I'm constantly fighting with Opus (not Fable, because my Fable quota burns through way too fast).

This is very cool.

If you can record some gif and embed it in the README.md, it'd be better

I have not started with blender yet. So far, my experience is with manim. and claude is actually not bad at it. give it a prompt and it can come up with a good scene design and then translate it into manim code. I still need to tweak the layout of the texts and the pace of the video and other "taste" part. I am thinking to apply similar strategy to blender. but I need to learn the basics of blender first.
