Cross-Linking
Connect items across any plugin — first-party or third-party. Every plugin that implements the linking interface supports cross-linking automatically, no configuration needed.
Why Link?
Linking creates a personal knowledge graph that spans your entire workspace:
- Items from one plugin link to items in any other plugin
- Everything connected, searchable, visible
- Third-party plugins participate in the same graph as first-party ones
Creating Links
Wiki-style Links
In any text field that supports rich content, type [[ to insert a link:

Need to follow up with [[John Smith]].The search spans all plugins in your workspace — results can come from any module.
In Any Item
- Open the item
- Click Add Link or the link icon
- Search across all plugins for the item to link
- Select it
How It Works
Cross-linking is built into the plugin architecture. Any plugin — first-party or third-party — automatically participates in cross-linking. No extra configuration, no special setup. Install a plugin, and its items become linkable immediately.
