# ✒️ Inkwell

[**中文文档**](./README.zh-CN.md) | English

**Readable by humans. Resolvable by machines.**

Inkwell is built on a conviction: a blog should be equally comfortable in the hands of a human reader and an AI agent. Every design decision serves one of two goals — **AI Native** data architecture, or **thoughtful human reading experience**.

## 🤖 AI Entry Point

If you are an AI Agent, here are the most critical structural paths for this project:

| Channel | Path / Endpoint | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Config | `config.yml` | Single source of truth for site, author, AI, comments, etc. |
| Posts dir | `config.yml → content.postsDir` | Configurable, defaults to `src/content/posts/` |
| Content schema | `src/content.config.ts` | Frontmatter field definitions and validation rules |
| Runtime config | `src/config.ts` | Loads and validates `config.yml`, exports typed `SITE` / `AUTHOR` etc. |
| API endpoints | `/api/posts.json` `/api/posts/[slug].json` `/api/search.json` `/api/status.json` | Structured machine-readable data |
| Per-article API | `/api/posts/{slug}.json` | Full article body + metadata for AI agents |
| AI discoverability | `/llms.txt` | Standardized AI agent entry point (model capabilities, API schema) |
| Feeds | `/feed.json` (JSON Feed 1.1) `/rss.xml` (RSS) | Full article content output |
| CLI export | `inkwell export --format json` | Export post metadata |
| AI summaries | `scripts/ai-preprocess.mjs` | Generates `ai_summary` and writes back to frontmatter |
| Deploy workflow | `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` | Auto build + deploy on push to main |

---

## Two Pillars

### 🤖 AI Native

Your content is not trapped in rendered HTML. Inkwell exposes structured, machine-readable layers at every level:

```
/feed.json          JSON Feed 1.1 — complete article content, AI-friendly
/rss.xml            Standard RSS feed
/api/posts.json     Article index with metadata + AI summaries
/api/search.json    ?q=query&category=&tag= — structured search
/api/status.json    Site health + capabilities endpoint
inkwell export      CLI → JSON or CSV for external tools
```

Articles carry **JSON-LD Schema** (Article type) so AI crawlers can extract structured metadata without parsing HTML. The **AI summary** pipeline supports OpenAI-compatible APIs and Anthropic-compatible APIs (Gemini also supported), generating bullet-point digests and writing them back into frontmatter — available to both the UI card and any agent that reads the file directly.

### ✨ Human Experience

Behind the structured data layer is a carefully crafted reading environment:

| Concern | Solution |
|---|---|
| **Layout** | Three-column: navbar + content + sticky sidebar (profile, categories, tag cloud, site stats) |
| **Reading** | Zen Mode (auto-widens, hides chrome, seamless Esc exit) · TOC with h3 auto-collapse · reading progress |
| **Comfort** | Dark mode (no flash) · KaTeX math rendering |
| **Code** | Dual-theme Shiki syntax highlighting (auto-adapts to site dark/light mode) · language label · one-click copy |
| **Discussion** | Giscus (GitHub Discussions) — theme-aware, privacy-friendly |
| **Speed** | Static-first · zero-DB · Pagefind client-side search · lazy-loaded images |
| **Writing** | Obsidian vault → one-command push to Git · `inkwell lint` source cleaner · `inkwell ai` auto-summaries |

---

## ✨ Features

- 🗂️ **Three-column layout** — Navbar, main content, and a sticky sidebar with Profile, Categories, Tag Cloud, and Site Info widgets
- 📄 **Article detail page** — Cover image, AI summary card, reading time, table of contents with h3 auto-collapse on scroll, Giscus comments, and license footer
- 🔍 **Full-text search** — Powered by [Pagefind](https://pagefind.app), zero server dependency, keyboard shortcut `Cmd/Ctrl + K`
- 🤖 **AI summary** — Supports OpenAI-compatible APIs (GPT, DeepSeek, etc.), Anthropic-compatible APIs (Claude, etc.), and Gemini API; generates `ai_summary` in frontmatter, rendered as a collapsible card
- 🌙 **Dark mode** — Manual toggle, persisted in `localStorage`, no flash on load
- 🧘 **Zen Mode** — Enters a distraction-free reading flow that dynamically hides sidebars and chrome, with quick Esc key exit
- ⌨️ **Markdown Linter** — Auto-detects and resolves invisible zero-width characters (BOM) and syntax errors within Markdown sources to guarantee strict build environments, complete with an auto-healing `--fix` flag
- 📡 **RSS + JSON Feed** — Auto-generated on every build, complete content in both formats
- 💬 **Giscus comments** — GitHub Discussions-backed, theme-aware
- ⚙️ **Single config file** — Everything in `config.yml`; no scattered hardcoded values

## 🛠️ Tech Stack

| Layer | Choice |
|---|---|
| Framework | Astro 6 |
| Language | TypeScript |
| Styling | Vanilla CSS (scoped `<style>` blocks) + CSS custom properties |
| Content | Astro Content Collections (glob loader) |
| Search | Pagefind |
| Comments | Giscus |
| Config | js-yaml |
| Code highlighting | rehype-pretty-code + Shiki |
| AI | OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini API (configurable provider) |

---

## 📋 Requirements

- **Node.js >= 22.12.0** (Astro 6 requires it; Node 20 will be rejected at build time)
- npm >= 10

---

## 🚀 Quick Start

```bash
git clone https://github.com/Amoswuuuu/Inkwell.git
cd inkwell
npm install
npm run dev
```

Open `http://localhost:4321`.

> **💡 Note**: The search UI (`/pagefind/pagefind-ui.js`) is generated by `npm run build` and does not exist in dev mode. The search modal will show a "build required" notice instead. This is expected behavior.

```

> ⚠️ **`startDate`**: Must be quoted (`'2019-01-01'`). A bare YAML date literal gets parsed as a `Date` object and will cause a build error.

### 💬 Setting Up Giscus

1. Enable **Discussions** on your GitHub repository
2. Install the [Giscus GitHub App](https://github.com/apps/giscus) on the repo
3. Visit [giscus.app](https://giscus.app), fill in your repo details, copy `repoId` and `categoryId`
4. Paste the values into `config.yml` under the `giscus` key

---

## ✍️ Writing Articles

Articles go in `src/content/posts/` by default as Markdown or MDX files. You can point `content.postsDir` in `config.yml` to any directory (supports absolute paths, e.g. an Obsidian vault path).

### Frontmatter Reference

```yaml
---
title: Article Title
date: 2024-06-01
updated: 2024-06-15           # Optional: last updated date
cover: https://example.com/cover.jpg
categories:
  - Tutorial                  # Array form is required for multiple categories
tags:
  - astro
  - typescript
description: A short description for SEO and social sharing.
ai_summary:                   # Auto-generated by inkwell ai; or write manually
  - Key point one
  - Key point two
  - Key point three
draft: false
published: true
license: CC-BY-SA             # Uses presets defined in config.yml; omit to use default
abbrlink: abc123              # Optional: custom URL slug
---
```

> ⚠️ **`categories` and `tags`**: Always use YAML list syntax (`- item`) for multiple values. Inline comma-separated strings are **not** supported and will appear as a single merged entry.

### 📜 License Field

The `license` field supports:

- **Preset key** (string): e.g. `CC-BY-SA`, `MIT`, `CC0` — resolved from `config.yml`'s `license.presets`
- **Alias** (string): e.g. `DEFAULT`, `CC`, `GPL` — resolved from `config.yml`'s `license.aliases`
- **Custom object**:
  ```yaml
  license:
    name: My Custom License
    url: https://example.com/license
    notice: Custom reuse notice.
  ```

## 🤖 AI Summaries

Inkwell supports three AI providers for generating article summaries:

| Provider | Config key | Compatible APIs |
|---|---|---|
| **OpenAI** | `openai` | GPT-4o-mini, DeepSeek, Ollama, any OpenAI-compatible endpoint |
| **Anthropic** | `anthropic` | Claude 3 Haiku, any Anthropic-compatible endpoint |
| **Gemini** | `gemini` | Google Gemini 2.0 Flash |

### Usage

```bash
# 1. Set your API key in .env (based on chosen provider)
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxx          # OpenAI-compatible
# or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=xxx     # Anthropic-compatible
# or GEMINI_API_KEY=xxx        # Gemini

# 2. Enable and select provider in config.yml
# ai:
#   enabled: true
#   provider: openai            # or anthropic / gemini

# 3. Run summary generation
inkwell ai
# or
npm run ai:preprocess
```

The script:
1. Reads `config.yml` and checks `ai.enabled` and `ai.provider`
2. Scans all posts for files missing `ai_summary`
3. Generates bullet-point summaries via the selected provider API
4. Writes summaries back to the article's frontmatter `ai_summary` field
5. Also generates an SEO `description` (can be disabled in config)

Posts with existing `ai_summary` are skipped. Use `--force` to regenerate.

---

## 📝 Obsidian Integration

Inkwell supports using Obsidian as your writing frontend for a "write in Obsidian → publish to blog" workflow.

### Option 1: Point to Obsidian Vault (Recommended)

Set `content.postsDir` in `config.yml` to the absolute path of your Obsidian vault's posts directory:

```yaml
content:
  postsDir: /path/to/your/obsidian-vault/400 Output/401 Post
```

Inkwell reads Markdown files directly from that directory at build time — no copying needed.

> **💡 Tip**: Absolute paths work best for local development. In CI environments, override with the `INKWELL_POSTS_DIR` environment variable.

### Option 2: Single-Article Publish Script

If you only want to publish one article at a time:

```bash
node scripts/obsidian-publish.mjs "/path/to/article.md"
```

The script:
1. Sets `published: true`
2. Clears the `draft` field
3. Updates the publish date
4. Commits and pushes only the target file (other files in the repo are untouched)

### Full Automation (Obsidian → Blog)

For "Obsidian push → blog auto-rebuild":

1. Store blog posts in a private Obsidian vault repository
2. Configure **Repository Secrets** in the blog repo:
   - `OBSIDIAN_PAT` — Personal Access Token with access to the private repo
   - `OBSIDIAN_REPO` — Private repo name (e.g. `yourname/obsidian-posts`)
   - `OBSIDIAN_POSTS_DIR` — Posts subdirectory in the Obsidian repo
   - `OPENAI_API_KEY` — For AI summary generation (optional)
3. Set up a webhook in the Obsidian repo to trigger `repository_dispatch` on the blog repo
4. Every push to the Obsidian repo will trigger an automatic blog rebuild

---

## 🌍 Deployment

The build output is a standard static site in `dist/`. Deploy anywhere that serves static files.

### GitHub Pages

The project includes a `deploy.yml` workflow that auto-builds and deploys on push to `main`.

1. Fork this repository
2. Go to **Settings → Pages → Source** and select **GitHub Actions**
3. Push to `main` — auto-deploy

Your site will be live at: `https://inkwell.max-mini.top`

### Cloudflare Pages

1. Create a Pages project in the [Cloudflare Dashboard](https://dash.cloudflare.com)
2. Connect your GitHub repository
3. Build settings:
   - **Build command**: `npm run build`
   - **Output directory**: `dist`
   - **Node.js version**: `22`
4. Deploy

> **💡 Tip**: If your posts directory is outside this repo, set `INKWELL_POSTS_DIR` in Cloudflare environment variables.

### Any Static Host

```bash
npm run build
# Upload the contents of dist/ to your host
```

---

## ⚠️ Known Limitations

- 🔍 **Search in dev mode**: Pagefind index only exists after `npm run build`. The search modal shows a notice in dev.
- 🖥️ **No server-side rendering**: This is a fully static site. Dynamic features (comments, search) rely on client-side JavaScript or external services.
- 🔗 **`site` URL in `astro.config.mjs`**: Now auto-read from `config.yml`'s `site.url`. Change your domain in `config.yml` only — no need to edit `astro.config.mjs`.
