dsh-md-notes DSH plugin questions
How do I install dsh-md-notes?
Run `dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-md-notes` in your terminal. Make sure you have the dsh CLI installed and the target profile is 'web'. After installation, restart DSH web for the plugin to take effect.
Where are my notes stored?
Notes are stored as plain .md files in the configured root directory, which defaults to `<cwd>/.dsh-notes/`. You can change this directory by setting the `root` key in the plugin config. Each note is a single .md file, plus a `meta.json` file tracking titles and update times.
Can I edit notes outside of DSH?
Yes, notes are plain .md files on your local filesystem. You can open and edit them with any text editor (e.g., VS Code, Notepad). Changes made externally will be reflected in the DSH notes manager after a refresh.
Does the plugin send data to external servers?
No. The plugin communicates only via a local loopback HTTP API between the browser and the local DSH server. It makes no external network calls and collects no telemetry or credentials.
Why don't changes appear after installing or upgrading?
The bundle layer and client metadata are cached in the DSH process. You must restart DSH web (stop and start the server) for the changes to take effect. A hard refresh of the page may also be needed for the icon to update.
