A Markdown workspace where an agent can work across the whole vault

Writing & notes
What it does
Keeps notes as ordinary Markdown you can read and edit directly, while embedding an agent that can search, read and - with permission - modify files across the entire vault, so a request like "pull together everything on this project" is handled without you locating the notes yourself. Back up anything important first: an agent with write access can make changes you did not intend, and whatever it reads goes to the AI service you configure.
Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.

- You install it like a normal desktop app. No command line involved.
- Does Lumina-Note work on a phone?
