Aiola Notebook

Keep good ideas close.

Scattered notes and forgotten follow-ups interrupt coding. Aiola keeps structured plans, searchable notes, and todos beside workspace chat. Capture ideas with Quick Note and return to them from a thread’s Context panel.

How it works

01

Open Notebook

Project planning gets scattered across unrelated documents. Notebook groups Plan, Notes, and Todo in a workspace, with header tabs to switch between them.

02

Write with workspace context

Explaining a document in a separate conversation takes extra effort. Notebook opens workspace side chat beside your plan, note, or todo list.

03

Review agent updates

Another editor or agent can change your document while you work. Refresh reloads documents, and Todo also reloads after agent turns.

Plans and notes

Edit structured plans

Large plans become hard to scan as plain paragraphs. Plan adds headings, lists, checklists, collapsible blocks, and named plans grouped by repository or worktree.

Import a plan

Existing planning documents should not need manual copying. Plan imports Markdown or text into a new plan, appends it, or replaces current content.

Manage named plans

Different branches can need different implementation plans. The plan selector creates, switches, renames, and deletes named plans while showing repository and worktree groups.

Rearrange and format plan blocks

A changing plan needs more than another paragraph. The block editor reorders, nests, duplicates, deletes, and colors blocks, with individual or grouped checklist completion.

Search and pin notes

Useful notes disappear as your project grows. Notes offers search, pins, creation, renaming, deletion, headings, lists, emphasis, underline, strikethrough, and text colors.

Autosave your writing

Forgetting to save can interrupt a useful thought. Plans, notes, and todos save after typing pauses, with visible save status.

Mention files and project records

A note needs precise references to the work it describes. Notes inserts @ file and # record mentions, while chat accepts #note references.

Alongside your threads

Keep workspace todos

Small follow-ups get lost between larger tasks. Todo edits checklist rows, toggles items or ranges, hides completed work, and clears finished entries.

Side chat for each mode

A plan or checklist may need another pass before coding. Side chat refines plans, discusses the active note, or updates workspace todos.

Floating Quick Note

A useful thought can arrive while you are on another page. Quick Note opens with Cmd+Shift+J or Ctrl+Shift+J, configurable in Keybinds.

Expand the scratchpad

A quick capture sometimes needs another note or project. Expanded Quick Note searches, switches, creates, renames, pins, and deletes notes, with workspace selection in Central.

Notes and todos in thread Context

Returning to project notes should not interrupt your conversation. The thread Context panel shows workspace notes and todos, remembering each thread’s selected note.

Plan a checkout change

  1. Open Notebook in the checkout workspace and create a plan.
  2. Import an existing Markdown checklist or add your own blocks.
  3. Open side chat and ask an agent to refine the plan.
  4. Review the changes and capture follow-up notes or todos.

Problems Aiola solves here

Your next idea can arrive in the middle of another task. Quick Note captures it without leaving the current page. Keybinds changes its shortcut, and Appearance sets its opening position.

A long plan needs structure before an agent can follow it. Plan provides headings, lists, checklists, and collapsible blocks. Import brings an existing Markdown or text plan into the workspace.

Important notes become difficult to find again. Notes provides search and pins. File and project record mentions keep references close to the writing.

Small follow-ups should survive the next conversation. Todo keeps a workspace checklist with completion controls. The thread Context panel shows the same workspace notes and todos beside chat.

Agent edits can leave an open document out of date. Notebook provides document refresh controls and side chat. Todo reloads after agent turns so you can review the updated checklist.

Common questions

Build, ship and fix in one app

Errors, user feedback, GitHub and analytics live next to your coding agents in one desktop app. Every issue becomes a task an agent can take.
